> Slack needs a mode that debounces messages so they're delivered en masse once per hour unless a box is checked that the message is urgent.

This isn't Slack's fault or a software issue, it's the cultural expectation that once you receive a message you must reply immediately. Just don't do this. Same as if someone texts you - it's up to you when to reply. Set the expectation that you'll reply when you get around to it.

It's not Slack's fault, but still having that mode would help things.

It creates a Schelling point for expectations setting, and thus people will actually set that expectation. Otherwise, the only available Schelling point is immediate response.
