Nadav Cohen (@nadavc) reportedhey @SlackHQ i'm running into issues with app creation, even blank ones. can you pls take a look?
-
BitcoinCPA (@bitcpa) reportedI am never going to use @SlackHQ again unless they fix the issue on the iPhone app where it doesn’t auto scroll to the latest message in a thread. You have to scroll down for 2 mins to get to the latest message. Not working for me on OpenClaw. Like if you know what I mean.

HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported7:30a Back home, getting the boys up, getting eMail down to zero, loading the team up with today's support and production website work (in @SlackHQ).
-
Darcy (@darcy_jpa) reported@SlackHQ @linear @cursor_ai Slack is a garbage product. Everything about it is trash. The reliability is trash, the support is trash, and the way you handle users is absolute trash. Impressive how consistently terrible you manage to be.

HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported7:30a Getting eMail down to zero. Planning out my day in Google Calendar. Loading the team in @SlackHQ with today's website production and support.

Younes Aberkane (@Kamkom05) reportedhey @SlackHQ i'm trying to invite @linear agent to my discussion with "/invite @Linear" but everytime I press enter it prompt me to a dialog asking me to invite people and not showing linear agent. can you help out ?
-
Araldite #FBPE 🇪🇺🇺🇦 (@DitePeter) reported@SlackHQ I've cleared the cache and it's still the same, I'm running the latest android on a Samsung 24 ultra. it has the drop down menu on the PC but not the phone.
-
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 🫠
-
Kevin (@kevin0connell) reported@SlackHQ I can also replicate this problem
-
harjot.co (@harjjotsinghh) reported@SlackHQ Microsoft's lock-in betrays what AI can't fix alone
-
kzer_AI (@kzer_ai) reported@OpenAI @linear @SlackHQ The agent that pulls context from docs, email, chats, and code to update your Linear ticket: "status: someone else's problem"
-
Azmy (@AzmyBlog) reported@lennysan @SlackHQ @aunder The strobe light thing is so real. The person presenting has been inside the problem for weeks. The reviewer walks in cold. And it's not really a flaw in the exec ..... it's just structural. That gap exists at every level in every review setting. The actual skill is learning to rebuild context for the reviewer quickly, instead of assuming they're already there with you.

Rohan (@iamTRA) reportedSlack upload API down? @SlackHQ Cratered team's morning.
-
mr.tipton (@mrtipton_art) reported@pizzaboy @SlackHQ Nah, I’m that guy. Gotta fix it
-
Mav (@mavexpress1) reported@SlackHQ you need to look into your app. The whole communication functionality is terrible, and it Lags alot
-
jbv 🌟 (@jbv) reported@SlackHQ liking the new activity view, still getting used to it. One thing: it doesn’t respect the “Just display names” setting. Is a fix coming? 👀
-
Paul Vu (@paulvutv) reported@jarredsumner @SlackHQ It’s low priority they still have to fix performance of their slow app
-
Jeffrey A Tucker (@jeffreytucker) reported@SlackHQ your headphone icon on huddles is a huge annoyance and an invasion of privacy for everyone. Users can turn it off but there should be the ability to shut this down for the whole workspace. We really don't need to know who is talking with whom at any one time.
-
Vlad (@vladoustinov) reported@MerlinEgalite @SlackHQ The problem is they gave up on product a long time ago haha But yes embedding tools/workflows inside interfaces people are already used to use (slack/email/Notion etc) is the way to go
-
Paul Tellefsen (@technopaul) reported@SlackHQ Anyone else having app problems on MacOS when you go to resize the window it moves it instead of sizing? Been like this for a month or more now!
-
Grok (@grok) reported@TheDavidYB @clickup @SlackHQ Interesting critique. ClickUp's Unlimited plan limits chat history to 90 days, per their help docs—upgrading to Business or higher unlocks unlimited access. This mirrors Slack's approach, creating tiered value from stored data. Users may see it as artificial gating; providers justify via storage costs and revenue strategy. What specific fix would you suggest?
-
Bigshortbetson (@bigRshortRbetR) reported@bitfalls @SlackHQ after clicking reset password link sent to phone number, enter the 15 character-long password, including UPPERCASE, lowercase and two special characters. Then confirm with the activation code sent to the same phone number. What is your problem ? :D
-
HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported7a Getting eMail down to zero, loading the team of today's tasks and support in @SlackHQ.
-
Dan (@pizzaboy) reported@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
-
Kevin Lewis (@objectuser) reported@thdxr @SlackHQ @Benioff Slack is so terrible
-
Max.Y (@maximilianyuen) reported@RealFeatBit @SlackHQ same. and just yesterday they push new AI....wonder is it relevant. no email notification, all connections and their official server status are normal. can open new workspace no problem.
-
Huseyin Emanet (@huseyinemanet) reportedI'm trying to download an attachment on Slack but it never finishes 🤔 The progress bar just gets stuck and I've been trying to copy the link to the file and open it in the browser to download it but now that's not working either. @SlackHQ @SlackStatus
-
Anmol (@anmolarora_tw) reportedNot sure if it’s just me but uploading images on Slack has been super slow and there’s no progress shown and no clue what’s happening. At least a small progress bar would help. @SlackHQ
-
Mutatyo (@kyukxs) reportedNew Slack Design is terrible. @SlackHQ can I revert to a previous version just a few updates from this one!

Andrew "Oyl" Miller (@oylmiller) reported@SlackHQ help me Beastbot, you're our only hope
