    @gustaf @SlackHQ Notifications are the bandaid for broken reliability. WhatsApp stays quiet because it works.

  • the_mewc
    mewc (@the_mewc) reported

    @SlackHQ lots of bugs and issues right now. Can't create channels and lots of jankyness. This release is a lot.

  • kanute
    Liger Wealth Management (@kanute) reported

    Thinking about ditching @SlackHQ just because unfurling sucks so bad. Seems like this has been an issue for years. Spent way too much time trying to get reliable unfurling when my @openclaw bot posts.

  • tarwin
    Tarwin Stroh-Spijer (@tarwin) reported

    @SlackHQ Please please fix it. How did this go out? It's not like it's even on random Windows laptop. It's a new Mac ! 90% of your engineers and testers probably use the same machine.

    @gustaf @ycombinator @SlackHQ What is degrading? WhatsApp imo is not a good example. Can’t even hold login on a desktop, and have to auth with your phone. Sync not super reliable either

  • Jimidvte
    Jimidate (@Jimidvte) reported

    @SlackHQ, I’m having issues with my mobile notifications. I’ve checked every setting on my phone, uninstalled and reinstalled the app, yet I still don’t receive any push notifications. I’m missing time-sensitive information because I have to open the app before I see any updates.

    @SlackHQ help me Beastbot, you're our only hope

  • mayberayyy
    mayberaigan (@mayberayyy) reported

    @SlackHQ your app notifications are glitching, please fix it

  • grok
    Grok (@grok) reported

    @natochi_ @fdosmither @SlackHQ Based on the screenshot, I'm guessing that unread notification is a sneaky DM from someone in your workspace—maybe a quick question or a meme that's buried in the Activity tab. Slack's UI can be tricky; try filtering by "Select unreads" to hunt it down!

  • troy_ruediger
    Troy Ruediger (@troy_ruediger) reported

    @Benioff @scottastevenson @SlackHQ That’s so much easier than seeing business owners try and argue for their products usability. Could very well be user error but irrelevant after this approach. Both sides on the same team working to make things better. Very smooth MB.

  • mikvjpev
    Ekim (@mikvjpev) reported

    @RealFeatBit @SlackHQ Have the same issues. Our workspace doesnt exist anymore

  • QuinnyPig
    Corey Quinn (@QuinnyPig) reported

    @samlambert @joshmgross It’s almost impossible to mention a bug in Slack and get anyone at @SlackHQ to fix it.

  • takshshahh
    Taksh Shah (@takshshahh) reported

    Someone at @SlackHQ needs to fix how they deal with markdown. Its markdown but not really? Pasting stuff from elsewhere sometimes preserves formatting, sometimes doesnt? I had to do workarounds when working with API, but pasting content from claude in the messagebox is terrible

  • imTulip
    Tulip 🌷 ☮️ (@imTulip) reported

    Is @SlackHQ down?

  • hey_amandam
    Amanda (@hey_amandam) reported

    @TejasKumar_ @SlackHQ Yes 👏 The issue with this (and all things like it) for me is that there seems to be some idea that anyone sees "AI" and immediately associates that with some value. What user pain of mine are you solving? I literally do not care if you are using AI or not to solve it, I just want the best experience. Explore AI as a cta is a waste of space and my mental energy

  • harjjotsinghh
    harjot.co (@harjjotsinghh) reported

    @SlackHQ Microsoft's lock-in betrays what AI can't fix alone

  • developeraspire
    sir frankie (@developeraspire) reported

    slack needs to fix the way they handle media uploads. it is terrible. @SlackHQ please fix up.

  • FredsDaily
    HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported

    7:30a Back home, getting the boys up, getting eMail down to zero, loading the team up with today's support and production website work (in @SlackHQ).

  • mattployed
    matt taylor (@mattployed) reported

    slack going down for 30 minutes was like the apocalypse for tech startups @SlackHQ PLEASE dont scare me like that again

  • beingrushabh07
    Rushabh Shah (@beingrushabh07) reported

    Hi @SlackHQ, I’ve been unable to launch or load the iOS app for the past few hours. I have already tried logging out and back in, as well as a full uninstall and reinstall, but the issue persists. This is significantly impacting my work could you please look into this?

  • hicodeguru
    Code Guru 🌞 (@hicodeguru) reported

    hey @SlackHQ even after an year this issue still there i cant hear voice of joined person - he drops it and then rejoin - now it works and the new ui for start hudle - not good, extra clicks :( sometime i forgot to actually start

  • casspa
    Cass Anderson (@casspa) reported

    @Yonar87 @SlackHQ same issue here. Just sent them an email. Their status landing page says they've been 100% find this quarter which makes me think maybe they just don't update that page?

  • OxDisky
    Disky.eth (@OxDisky) reported

    I just learned you can basically see all @SlackHQ profile images publicly without the need for authenticated request. Isn't this both a #privacy issue and security issue? I mean, you can basically fetch them from ca.slack-edge dot com. #slack #privacyprotection

  • realslavko
    Slavko Kovačević (@realslavko) reported

    @SlackHQ Fix notifications first

  • Oxymarun_
    Arun Sharma (@Oxymarun_) reported

    @SlackHQ came out of a failing 10-person game studio the team needed a way to coordinate that wasn't email they built it for themselves then realized every distributed team on earth had the same problem

  • aunder
    April Underwood (@aunder) reported

    In this day and age of infosec threats, this subject line from @SlackHQ is a bad call. After the brief cortisol spike that someone using the name Miles Davis had joined our Slack, I scrolled down, and then just wondered why on earth I would want this in my work communication tool.

  • exPUNISHER
    KC (@exPUNISHER) reported

    @salesforce @MrBeast @SlackHQ Jimmy texted Pyramid! Write that down, it won't be in the code though.

  • AI_for_Science
    AI for Science (@AI_for_Science) reported

    Our community slack channel with 1800 active members have been affected by the massive channel delete from Slack, we have tried to email them, call them but received no helpful support for a week. @SlackHQ Really appreciate if anyone could help bring our community back 🙏🙏🙏

    Slack upload API down? @SlackHQ Cratered team's morning.

  • BelmontJockey
    New Chapter Reprise Inigo Montoya (@BelmontJockey) reported

    AVOID using @SlackHQ at all costs. The UI is TERRIBLE. I get random notifications under "Activity" and it is impossible to find. So there is a red bubble notification that will never goes away. It happens all of the time. FREAKING TERRIBLE! Impossible to track down.
