The pop-card shows me some useful information about the channel, such as the name of the channel and the team it’s in, what type of channel (in this case, standard), icon links to manage the channel and notifications, the description of the channel (if available), and most importantly… when was the last activity in the channel:

I love this new feature and the information you can get without having to dig around for it.
