If someone wanted a "team/slack" like ability for remote indivduals to communicate, they /could/ setup a close NNTP network for themselves. Granted, the likelyhood is small and said team is more likely to setup msteams or slack -- but the *closed* nature means none of the rest of us would know it existed.
