-
Nathan (@Nathan_Bliss) reported@SlackHQ, having trouble loading your desktop app on IOS. Your status page is not updated yet.
-
Chinthan B M (@mrchintz) reported@SlackHQ Down?
-
Mehmet Ali (@immehmetali) reported@SlackHQ Context is necessary but not sufficient. The real bottleneck is decision architecture: knowing when to retrieve, when to reason, and when to act. More context doesn't fix a broken agent loop.
-
sir frankie (@developeraspire) reportedslack needs to fix the way they handle media uploads. it is terrible. @SlackHQ please fix up.
-
Zev Zoldan (@ZevZoldan) reported@ethanmonkhouse @SlackHQ dude yes, exactly what we're trying to fix with @TryThreadly!
-
Agustín Ruiz (@aguscruiz) reportedHi @SlackHQ, can you please fix this notification dot issue? It's been bothering me for like a month or more already. It shows that I have something unread when I don't. Even hovering on it makes the dot go away when there's something unread. It's very annoying for people with "unread anxiety" like me lol. Thank you 🫶
-
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"
-
Eugene 🇺🇲 (@vayzenburger) reported@ibuildthecloud @jarredsumner @SlackHQ Slack is still probably a rounding error on Salesforce's balance sheet. I doubt the acquisition happened because of how profitable they could be. So idk
-
Brian (@talkerbrian) reportedWhy does @SlackHQ offer spell check without offering suggestions to fix basic typos?
-
Vincent (@r3curx) reported@SlackHQ your file uploads are terrible
-
Dan Mazy (@danmazy1) reported@SlackHQ I'm the sole owner of a paid workspace. Changed my number + email, so recovery doesn't work. I can verify via billing/credit card. Support can't help. Can't log in, can't add employees. There has to be a manual verification process. Please escalate.
-
Kim Jämiä (@KimJamia) reportedHey @SlackHQ, can you please fix the recent list of reactions on Android? It doesn't make any sense how it works. It never shows any of the emojis I mostly use so I have to search them every time.
-
JustSteveKing (@JustSteveKing) reported@heyandras @SlackHQ I had the same issue, but it's like $3.50 or something per user a month - so for just me it was easier to pay it
-
Kevin Lewis (@objectuser) reported@thdxr @SlackHQ @Benioff Slack is so terrible
-
Matthew Cassinelli (@mattcassinelli) reported@samhenrigold So good. I wish this was accounted for when opening Spotlight from the Home Screen so they were distinct, that’s the only reason I don’t unless I have two sets (which do account for each other). Also lol @ @SlackHQ having an old Siri Shortcut donation whose image is broken
-
Noah Levin (@nlevin) reported@SlackHQ mobile unread state bugs continue to be quite a painful and frustrating issue… plz fix 🙏
-
Beryl (@Beryl2021) reported@SlackHQ Same here. Our workspace is also showing as deleted and we're locked out. Billing is up to date and no one on our team triggered this. Glad to know we're not the only ones, but this is a major glitch. We’ve already reached out to support but haven't heard back yet 😢
-
Matthew Weissman (@MATTtheWEISS) reported@cjhuts @claudeai @SlackHQ Any service related ai platforms you would consider for your agency ? Or any ai platforms in general?
-
Luigi ➔ nora.finance (@luigiremor) reported@discord @beeper I think I won't have this issue with @SlackHQ...
-
heatherm.eth (@heathermhuang) reported@SlackHQ need urgent help our active Slack workspace suddenly got deleted.
-
Satwick (@satiwick1) reportedHave spent 40 mins trying to change my old email to a new one on @SlackHQ to join a new shared channel. For every action @SlackHQ makes me login with 2-factor authentication & then never maintains state in the same browser window. And then I get locked out for too many logins!!!
-
Zev Zoldan (@ZevZoldan) reportedHot take for the AI founders knocking @SlackHQ: Slack doesn’t have a “communication problem.” Teams do. Most “ignored messages” aren’t about noise, attention spans, or channel chaos. It’s because Slack messages have zero structure. No timing. No follow-through. No visibility. Just text thrown into the void and a prayer. The second you add structure — forms, confirmations, simple logic — everything changes. People actually respond. Leaders stop guessing. Teams stop resending the same message 12 times. Slack doesn’t need fewer messages. It needs smarter ones. That’s what we’re building with @TryThreadly.

Signal House (@SignalHouseSMS) reported@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'
-
