    @SlackHQ @fharper This “feature” is still there and getting worse. Now there’s two popups, in serial, to “pick” a command and then a subcommand. Please fix this awful UX.

    @SlackAPI @SlackHQ Unfortunate timing. I think your update has broken Slack for many workspaces!

    The @SlackHQ iOS app just keeps getting worse. Things that have broken recently: - Using backticks - Posting GIFs in a thread - Starting new threads

    @rchrdbyd @SlackHQ slack: we fixed the issue. “Message” link removed when user removed. Thanks for the bug report.

    @SlackHQ I already have a ticket open that is assigned to the internal ticket that has been tracking this issue.

  • leighhall
    Leigh (@leighhall) reported

    You know what feature @SlackHQ really needs? A way to limit the number of notifications from a user or channel within a short timescale, to help me not want to commit crimes because of people who use a carriage return instead of punctuation. E.g., 1 alert every n seconds

    @nathanlookingup @asana @SlackHQ Have y’all explored using GitHub issues?

    @SlackHQ thank you. Resetting cache seems not helping… i’ve sent you a feedback with log - hope it helps. as said: Happens since the last slack update. No problem with other apps so far, so iOS 14.5.1 doesn’t seem to be the problem here

  • reinforchu

    @SlackHQ of course! Sure, I should have reported on HackerOne. These issues should be reported. Thank you for your reply.

    @searls @SlackHQ Needed to read this thread. It's so easy to get sucked into the abyss of misery. I will take heed, lest I drag everyone down with me.

    I still do not understand why @SlackHQ , which makes you work more, is named after not working

  • jdoss
    Joe Doss (@jdoss) reported

    @SlackHQ I don't want to be blowing up my phone that is sitting next to me on my desk just to get notifications from Slack. No thank you Please get this bug fixed! It's been an ongoing issue for over a half a year.

    @SlackHQ Still elusive, I’ve tried the web browser, mobile app, desktop app. I’ve even tried scrolling down for 5min in my threads. This is getting a bit frustrating especially since there is no “is:unread” search query that could help. Any idea on what to do next?

  • SpaceWxRina

    Has anyone else noticed that if you edit a message/post in @SlackHQ one day and want to edit it again the next day, the option to edit is gone? 🤔 Is this just a me problem or is this a problem for others as well?

    @rchrdbyd @QuinnyPig @SlackHQ Is this a free tier thing? On a paid Slack I have no problem searching for the deactivated person in the main search bar and pulling up our DMs

  • SpaceWxRina

    @AbsorbingStates @SlackHQ Hmm, I checked to see if it was a browser glitch or specific computer, but that doesn’t seem to be the case...so weird

  • joiglifberg
    Joi Glifberg (@joiglifberg) reported

    @SlackHQ has the two-finger swipe shortcut been removed from the iOS app lately? It’s not working anymore using version 21.05.11 😔

  • AbsorbingStates
    Abhi (@AbsorbingStates) reported

    @SpaceWxRina @SlackHQ I haven't personally had this problem. I am able to edit and re-edit days later.

  • jimgraham

    @iansu @SlackHQ Me too. But so broken.

    @bnSonic @SlackHQ Same issue here with iPad Pro too. It seems it gets killed really easily.

  • FrancisBrero
    Francis Brero (@FrancisBrero) reported

    @SlackHQ Found the solution which was to delete the app on my phone, reinstall and I was able on the first load to find the message. I am however not going through the trouble of adding my previous workspaces

    Is it still normal that after more than a year of remote working @SlackHQ calls are still not working properly?! I mean come on!😤 #remote #tech #fail

  • pvlpp

    . @SlackHQ Slack web version in Safari is plain broken. 1. Pressing add emoji reaction button removes the message entirely 2. Left sidebar occasionally turns blank 3. Writing message in a thread goes beyond the text input

  • thomaswodarek
    Thomas Wodarek @home (@thomaswodarek) reported

    The fun part about being on the beta channel for @SlackHQ 's Android app is that, if I find a broken feature, there's probably already an update that fixes it 😜

  • ytechie
    Jason Young (@ytechie) reported

    @whyisjjtaken @SlackHQ The cool part was that notifications came through without the app running. The downside was that native integrations like dropping a photo in, didn't work. It was broken just enough to make me not that interested.

  • jdoss
    Joe Doss (@jdoss) reported

    Hey @SlackHQ when are you folks going to fix the notification bugs on the Linux app? The app never goes idle on my workstations so mobile messages never happen and I lose notifications if I have the app open on two or more Linux workstations. This has been broken for 8+ months.
