Important tech tip for Slack users not sold on the new "design"
If you hard-refresh Slack Command-Shift-R, and then type Command-Shift-S, you get an extra vertical sidebar that disaggregates your individual slacks.
Thanks to @snarkout who has improved my life for the better, this day.

this worked for me (at least for now) on the mac app:
quit slack.app
export SLACK_DEVELOPER_MENU=true open /Applications/Slack.app
cmd-option-i, to open the chrome devtools (or pick it out of the menu)
go to console
at the prompt, change the appropriate js w/
localStorage.setItem("localConfig_v2", localStorage.getItem("localConfig_v2").replace (/\"is_unified_user_client_enabled\":true/g, '\"is_unified_user_client_enabled\": false'))
cmd-r reload slack
Interesting! Looks like it gets reset pretty often by a variety of actions, so you need to get that first reload in before it gets reset.
