My research group still uses Slack, which is not only USAian, but also has a terrible free version and expensive subscription.

I am confident there is will to switch, but the inconvenience of learning a new platform prevents the team as a whole. What would be good alternatives that would make an easy transition period?

There's also Rocket Chat.

Both are decent enough self hosted solutions. That's why they also both advertise, being used in military, security, and defense.

The user experience in either of those isn't particularly great. Slack beats them with ease of use and like a million easy to use plugins.
