Slack Redirect by David Rubino
Redirects Slack links directly to the Slack web app URL, skipping the interstitial page which tries to open the native Slack app.

About this extension
Slack produces a native Windows/macOS app but also has a nearly identicial web UI. Users of the web UI experience frustration however, as links to Slack messages created in both the native app and web app are in the form https://{WORKSPACE}.slack.com/archives/{CHANNEL_ID}/p{timestamp} which leads to a page that attempts to open the native Slack app from the browser. Avoiding this redirect saves considerable time for Slack web app users.
