A nonsequitur of sorts that occurs when someone types a response into the incorrect Slack channel. A steep increase in nonslackquiturs was seen in March 2020, when many office workers began using the messaging tool "Slack" for the first time to have group conversations remotely as they worked from home. Nonslackquiturs can be irritating, hilarious, or outright embarrassing, because recipients of the nonslackquitur wonder about the nature of the offender's other conversation.

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere.

Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.
