I use the Slack repo for Fedora. slack.repo [slack] name=slack baseurl=https://packagecloud.io/slacktechnologies/slack/fedora/21/x86_64 enabled=1 gpgcheck=0 gpgkey=https://packagecloud.io/gpg.key sslverify=1 sslcacert=/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt
Works very well and is updated regularly More info at https://slack.com/downloads/linux. Also available as a snap but I avoid snap applications. I seem to recall some security issues with them a while back.
