Private groups are the worst thing in a truly collaborative environment. Would be nice in Slack to have a Publish this whole freaking thread to a public channel button.
Pretty sure slack enterprise has this feature for turning private chats into public channels.
Checked docks. You can convert any private chat into a private channel. Then swap the channel from private to public.

Edit: verified. You can do this but takes an extra step of converting to private channel first then swapping the channel mode.
I'm confused are against the idea of private groups at all or just that you can't change the visibility settings later on?
But who is allowed to press it? If anyone, then anyone can expose career ruining messages from someone else, even inadvertently.
