[Slack] has a couple of useful keyboard shortcuts for navigating between unread
channels. Unfortunately these use an awkward combination of keys involving
multiple modifiers and an arrow key (<span class="keyboard-shortcut">⌥⇧↓</span>
and <span class="keyboard-shortcut">⌥⇧↑</span>). Additionally, these shortcuts
are not exposed in the menu bar. This means they can't be modified with the
[built-in support for custom shorcuts in Mac OS X][custom-shortcuts].

I made a feature request for this to be addressed. Until that happens, if at
all, the following [Karabiner] config can be used to change the next unread
shortcut to something more sane. I chose <span
class="keyboard-shortcut">⌘J</span>:
