ScudCloud is an unofficial open-source Linux desktop client for Slack built with Python and Qt, offering native notifications, tray integration, and multi-team support. It packages for Debian/Ubuntu, Arch, Fedora, and openSUSE.

Use cases

  • use slack on linux desktop
  • slack client with native linux notifications
  • manage multiple slack teams on linux
  • slack tray icon with unread mention count
  • close slack to system tray on ubuntu

When to choose

  • you want a native-feeling Slack app on Linux with tray and notification integration
  • you need multi-team Slack support on older Ubuntu/Debian systems

When to avoid

  • you need an actively maintained client - the last release was 2018 and Slack's web app has changed since
  • you are on macOS or Windows
  • you need official Slack features like huddles or workflow builder
