    .@SlackHQ and @Jira have the weirdest integration possible. Have spent the last 15 mins trying to remove jira app from Slack, but unable to. Can someone more knowledgeable help?

    @SlackHQ why is there no obvious way to join a channel in Slack? Seems like a huge usability problem, the + sign next to channels creates a channel, but joining one is very elusive

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

    Claude 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

    @SlackHQ You need to fix your search before moving on to AI.

  • SignalHouseSMS

    @SlackHQ @notion the only repetitive question saved here that matters is 'is the otp service still down.' second only to 'is the otp service still down for everyone or just me'

  • getbluejay_ai

    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.

    @trq212 Please @SlackHQ help us. I’m so tired of telling ppl to download. I’ve now started making videos of the html files and then sharing file as well lol

  • kmelve

    Now that @SlackHQ Code is a thing, will they finally ship Glitch out of flash?

  • 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!

    @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

    6a Getting eMail down to zero, loading up the team is @SlackHQ. Planning the day, so I can work the plan.

    Andreas Elia (@digitalandreas) reported

    @cyberomin @SlackHQ Just to name a few: - Randomly opening channels a few miles up in the chat so I have to go all the way back down again - Right-click context menus are all over the place and inconsistent - Ghost notifications that show up randomly with no notification to go alongside them

  • Alexoppenheimer
    Alex Oppenheimer (@Alexoppenheimer) reported

    @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.

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

  • Manoj____Yadav
    Manoj Yadav (@Manoj____Yadav) reported

    @TheNickBigar @CricTalk29 @SlackHQ No it doesn’t track time, you need to tell the time spent via message. Example- worked on X for 30 mins - remind me about checking the production issue around 3 pm The idea is to reduce friction for users on how they track time and tasks

    isn't this the same problem @PromptQL promised @sama in order to kill @SlackHQ ?

    8:30a Back at my desk, loading the team up in @SlackHQ with today's assignment, getting eMail down to zero.

    @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?

    @discord @beeper I think I won't have this issue with @SlackHQ...

  • _THE__FUHRER
    VISHAL (@_THE__FUHRER) reported

    @SlackHQ @stewart Stewart Butterfield and his team were developing a game called "Glitch" in 2011 The Glitch was an ambitious and creative multiplayer game, but it struggled to find a large enough playerbase. They had to shut it down on 2012

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

  • Domino_mys
    Domino Mysłowski (@Domino_mys) reported

    There was Pay by Eye, by Ring, by Watch… time to Pay by Juice? 🧃💳 Okay, this one was just a joke created by Callum (FrostyTrollz). But 10 years ago, paying with your watch or ring also sounded ridiculous. A great example of how today’s joke can become tomorrow’s product is.. @SlackHQ The team behind Slack was actually building an online game called Glitch. As the founders later mentioned: “The game was absolutely preposterous.” Eventually, the game failed and was shut down. However, the internal chat tool they built to communicate became more valuable than the game itself. That tool became Slack, now used by millions of teams. 🌱 Follow for more wild growth-hacks

    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

    @SlackHQ You need to fix that app so it stops putting people into Auto Silence repeatedly without touching anything. Your code is trash
