I think I once felt overwhelmed like that, and I ended up moving to a much smaller company, where I usually talk to ~4 people, and I earn much more.

Whenever I have to communicate something key, or something prone to cause tension, I just ask for a quick video call.

When I joined this company, I let my colleagues know that I prefer calls over text to avoid misinterpretation, and they understood it just fine.

Maybe it’s not just Slack, 100+ channels is just too much to bear, maybe is the dimension of the company and how stretched you have been.
