This was useful to me when a group changed to two-factor auth and wouldn't let me sign back in. Was stuck in an infinite loop of login with a tiny time window to remove workspace which never seemed to work out. What a painful process, Slack!

From 10.11 onwards, macOS protects certain folders by using SIP (System Integrity Protection). It may not be able to 'rm' the kext from terminal.
I still use the manual way to remove the Slack desktop app from Mac, following these steps:
~/Library/Application Support/Slack
~/Library/Saved Application State/com.tinyspeck.slackmacgap.savedState/
~/Library/Preferences/com.tinyspeck.slackmacgap.plist/
~/Library/Preferences/com.tinyspeck.slackmacgap.helper.plist/
~/Library/Logs/Slack/
The ~/Library/Caches/ and ~/Library/Containers/ directories can also contain Slack service files.
