There are a lot of smaller open source projects that are using Discord instead of IRC. I am a member of Reshade, C# OpenTK and general programming servers.

I actually know many opensource projects that moved from the clunkyness of Slack to Discord.

In all fairness, though, the recent releases of Slack made it pretty snappy.

My 70 kb/s connection disagrees. I was barely able to get slack to load, when it did load.

I work in an office with poor reception and it is quite annoying that these apps don't really work unless you are on 3G or better.
