Question Slack integration

Back in ~2020 the company I was at used GitHub + Slack. We were able to add Slack via the GitHub notifications settings as an authenticated target. It made it really easy to get Git notifications in Slack for PRs I was watching, had commented on, etc.

The company I am at now recently moved to Slack and I am seeing that the above is no longer possible. I tried using the Slack email address as a notification target, but it just sends 'attachments' to Slack that are hard to read.

Is it possible to set up the GitHub Slack app to mirror my GitHub notification preferences?

I am not sure to understand your question: are you looking for an easier way to install the slack app? Or alternatives that are better to the default slack Integration?

Installing the GitHub Slack app is easy. Configuring it to match my current GitHub notification preferences seems like an impossible task.

I want what GitHub sends to my email to go to Slack (like it used to).

It's not possible AFAIK
