That's not true where I work. Slack's history is full of valuable information that we use all the time.

Honest question, is it possible to export all of the chat history from slack?

One of the (only) things I like about Skype is that message history is held in an sqlite database on the local machine. So I have a record of every single message for the last 5 years.

Yes.
