    @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 are you guys shutting down? It’s been more than a week I’ve been contacting you guys. Support isn’t responding at all

    @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.

    @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

    @kurushdubash @patriciosainzr @SlackHQ 👋I work at Slack. Could you share a screenshot or more details on what's not working?

  • omenosdev

    @SlackHQ I've sent a message in via the feedback address, but for 4.50.136 either there's been an undisclosed change of GPG keys used in signing Linux packages or the wrong key was used accidentally. For environments with strict package verification this leads to install errors.

    Slackbot 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

    /copy from Claude -> paste in Slack -> doesn’t keep the formatting. @SlackHQ please fix

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

  • gustaf
    Gustaf Alströmer (@gustaf) reported

    @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.

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

    @SlackHQ: 40% less merge queue time, CI type-checking down from 7.5 minutes to 1.25 minutes. Canva: 58s to first error in the editor down to 4.8s.

    @KhalidWarsa @SlackHQ Because each workspace has own login. Even if you login on one device. You cannot sync all those workspaces under one account on another device

  • karrisaarinen
    Karri Saarinen (@karrisaarinen) reported

    @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

    Ellen DaSilva (@ellenjdasilva) reported

    Sketchy behavior: Someone from @SlackHQ joined my company channel last week saying "we're here to help you with the product" (we're not having issues). Then today started pestering me about an overdue invoice (we don't have one). Beyond violating. Shameful behavior @salesforce.

  • grinich
    Michael Grinich (@grinich) reported

    @SlackHQ Please fix the rate limits. The current Slack API is practically useless since you reduced them.

  • pavzagor

    @SlackHQ you should really fix your reactions search its such a pain to remember the names of emojis. Look at what folks at @raycast and @telegram do 👀

  • _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

    @NotionHQ @SlackHQ Channel-scoped agents fix the biggest AI rollout blocker — broad access feels risky to admins. Smart default.

    Hey @SlackHQ, there's some talk in the security community about the world is sorta burning down and we need a new space for community discussion. Would you ever donate to help a very highly visible space? You'd be next to names like IBM/Dell/Microsoft/etc. DMs open to chat
