Subrat Prasad (@humbledshuttler) reported@SlackHQ please fix huddles on android.
-
Jason Alco (@jason_alco) reported@SlackHQ Our team loves the platform, but we really need to fix the mark unread feature. It’s been broken for years now. First, you should be able to mark a channel as unread without opening the channel and selecting a message. Second, half the time marking a message as unread doesn’t work. I have to go message by message, trying over and over until one works. Please fix this, thank you 🫠

GosuCoder (@GosuCoder) reportedSlackbot legit might be one of my favorite uses of AI outside of coding. I use this thing constantly to find past conversations, summarize entire chats, help write responses, look for things I might be forgetting, or even look up past context on a decision or topic. Seriously @SlackHQ this legit improves my life

FIDENCE MONEY 💰 (@Fidencemoney) reported@Hyomabtw @SlackHQ @Hyomabtw please how can I get work like virtual assistant,customer care service
-
Stache (@stacheFonzi) reportedIt's from 2011, but I still miss Glitch. It was a browser based MMO based on collecting and crafting. Crazily enough it was made by the company that went on to rebrand and make @SlackHQ. The messaging system in the game became the basis for Slack.
-
Bluejay (@getbluejay_ai) reportedBluejay 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.

Ari Dehkordi (@arashdehkordiHQ) reported@karrisaarinen @SlackHQ Did Linear do this before agents? I tried project-level Slack channels at my org and found it works for enterprise engagements nicely, but breaks down at feature/epic level projects for our SaaS. There's a granularity sweet spot, too fine and context switching costs spike. Too coarse and projects blur. Plus no project is actually isolated in small teams, so cross-project conversations forced more people onto each channel and productive engagement suffered. I get the AI context-confinement angle, but curious what other benefits you're seeing?

Ajith Joseph (@theajithjoseph) reportedFriday thought. @stewart raised $17 million to build a video game. 3 years of work! 40 people. And almost nobody wanted to play it. He shut it down in December 2012 and laid off most of the team. The only thing left standing was the chat tool they'd built to talk to each other while working on it. That tool was @SlackHQ. @salesforce bought it for $27.7 billion. The thing you're building in the quiet stretch isn't wasted. Sometimes it turns out to be the actual product.

Tyler (@tyhouch) reportedyo @SlackHQ please add support for viewing .html files in chat. everyones tossing these around and the download->open in chrome friction is slowing me down bigtime
-
Björne 🇸🇪🏋️♂️ (@SilchQuatch) reported@QuinnyPig @SlackHQ Every single unwarranted notification births months of hate inside of me. Literally anti-ads for me, any pattern of it and I immediately remove the service. I guess it has to work or it wouldn't be done?
-
Giuseppe Skyline (@giskyexplorer) reported@gustaf @SlackHQ Notifications are the bandaid for broken reliability. WhatsApp stays quiet because it works.
-
HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported8:30a Got Daniel dropped off and heading back to my office to load the team up in @SlackHQ and get eMail down to zero.

Kurush Dubash (@kurushdubash) reported@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
-
JM (@merklejosh) reported@SlackHQ There seems to be a bug in your Version 4.50.140 app (Mac) where if you have open a New message and you try to then click in the Search bar, you can't – it just flashes. Can you please fix this. It's very annoying. Thanks!
-
Jose Urquiza (@hollowvox) reportedWe'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.
-
Fluorine (@FluorineHQ) reported@gustaf @SlackHQ Reliability is the floor, not the ceiling. Slack hit the floor and is now adding notification noise to mask it — classic engagement-metric trap. The deeper issue: messaging apps stopped being where work happens and became where work gets talked about. That's the gap worth solving.
-
Chris Munns (@chrismunns) reportedsomehow @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.
-

Assaf Kipnis (@Kipnis_a) reportedClaude is the best corporate CYA buddy I used to have full CYA files with records of messages, emails and things I did - I was terrible at keeping those and people took advantage of that. With Claude and @meetgranola - I have canonical record of all conversations, @SlackHQ messages, emails, canonical decisions - everything Oh, you say I didnt do something? I didnt respond? Here come the receipts

HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported7:30a Getting email down to zero and loading both the website support and production teams in @SlackHQ.

Chimene | Dantown (@AgentC_006) reported@thdxr @SlackHQ It’s always weird that you cannot actively reply to messages on Slack. The experience feels broken.
-
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!
