malabarba··on Keep your Slack distractions under control with Emacs
I didn't know about `slack-select-unread-rooms`, but I actually use a custom solution of my own for that (I'll post about it later).

I'll definitely follow you lead on the status/room-name issue. Mind if I include those tips in a future post?

True. I tried using Erc for slack for a while, but it started getting a bit limited. To be fair though, as they add more features it gets hard for client-apps to keep up as well.
malabarba··on Running Emacs on Android
Yes, after I published that post Fredrick patch the Emacs package on Termux so it wouldn't need those workarounds. I've updated the post accordingly.

Sadly (maybe it's my pronunciation), but voice typing isn't that perfect for me. It works alright for regular sentences, but it refuses to understands things that are not plain english (like apt).

I understand your feelings, but I'm not avoiding anything. :-) I wrote a compliant solution instead of spending my time begging for something else.

No, you don't need to do that for every non non local symbol. You only need to do that for external symbols which are shadowed by a local symbol (which has never happened to me so far).
