    @thdxr @SlackHQ It’s always weird that you cannot actively reply to messages on Slack. The experience feels broken.

    @karrisaarinen @ycombinator @SlackHQ I'm experiencing reliability issues with Slack. Message's aren't sent. Messages can't be deleted. App not loading properly. I haven't had any of those issues with Whatsapp ever to be honest. Messages on iPhone is even worse. It's nearly unusable for me.

    Bluejay AI can now act in @SlackHQ, not just answer. Run a simulation. Check how production calls went overnight. Resolve the issues that caused the failures. All from the channel your team is already in. Test, monitor, and improve your agents. Now in Slack. Led by Ronniel Gandhe.

    Jose Urquiza (@hollowvox) reported

    We're about to start letting our employees fix their own bugs with @v0 and @SlackHQ. Why report a bug to another system when you can send it straight to v0? All I have to do is review the PR and merge it in. So confident in the models and the platform that I can go hands off.

    @SlackHQ can you please revert your most recent update, it is so bad. This is terrible for anyone who is inbox 0. Please don't make me use Teams

    somehow @SlackHQ filtering of channels/DMs for last 30 days active hasn't worked for me for months. is this just a broken feature or have I done a thing.

    Putting an agent in Slack creates a very different UX problem: it has to know when to shut up We spent a lot of time tuning when Devin should speak, stay quiet, or move work into a separate channel. Devin was the first agent to support Slack natively, so it was great to bring 2 years of those learnings to @SlackHQ for the Slack Code launch.

    @karrisaarinen @SlackHQ The handoff from Slack discussion to actual tracked issue is where most teams drop the ball - keeping that loop tight is harder than it sounds.

    8a Loading the team in @SlackHQ, getting eMail down to zero and getting Daniel up for school.

  • j1mmyhackett

    i shipped a report that posted a PDF to @SlackHQ with buttons to approve or flag it. worked great in testing. turns out every single report was re-sharing the exact same file. Next.js had cached the upload URL on the first request and just kept reusing it. so every property got the same PDF. same charts. same data. looked fine in the message. was completely wrong. the fix was straightforward once i saw it. but i only saw it because i added logging on the upload path and watched what Slack was actually returning. without that i would have kept assuming the reports were right. this is the thing that keeps biting me. i build something, it posts, the message looks correct, and i ship it. but "the message looks correct" is not the same as "the data is correct". i need the system to surface the difference, not just tell me a message was sent. the reports now work the way they were supposed to. one message per property, each with its own PDF, two models reading it and leaving grades in the thread. the buttons are how you reply to the report, not how you open it. but i almost shipped a monitoring system that was monitoring nothing. it was just confidently showing me the same snapshot on repeat. what is the dumbest caching bug you have hit in ****?

    Please @SlackHQ can you add a proper GIF selector I need to send better gifs right after I take down production

    @karrisaarinen @SlackHQ Hey @karrisaarinen are the new project slack channels scoped to just that project I.e if you use the Linear slack bot in the channel will it only have access to issues and data from that project? I found that to be an issue a couple of months ago that the bot wasn’t able to be scoped down? Or was this a skill issue on my end

    @SlackHQ What are the chances we can cut down the number of clicks to start a huddle from four to say… one? Driving me crazy. 🙏🏻

    Can someone please buy @SlackHQ and shut it down? This platform is horrible.

  • bkwebster
    Brandon Karl Webster (@bkwebster) reported

    @adilmania @SlackHQ Better alternatives exist - it’s used abundantly because of the mindshare and scale. The only replacement would be a totally new and obvious form factor that leads to the same outcome in a better way - not a better alternative to the same problem.

    @SlackHQ I can't login to even contact support. I am in an infinite 2FA loop. And I am being overcharged. Needless to say, I am not happy.

    @AgentAkki @SlackHQ Restarting doesn't help, and I mentioned this in the dms, it seems so weird to basically have 2 dm lists.

  • evisdrenova
    Evis Drenova (@evisdrenova) reported

    @sbilstein @SlackHQ yeah to your earlier point i think it depends at what layer you want to attack it i.e. rust builds are slow, caching can help but github actions is trash for it, but blacksmith isn't bad, is there a generic solution you can use that *just works* on any CI? alternatively, go after the actual docker execution layer but not clear to me how much of a bottleneck that actually is vs. language specific idiosyncrasies buildkit is pretty optimized from what i've heard but i generally agree with make it fast and stupidly easy to use!
