    @Shopify @klaviyo @SlackHQ The Non-Technical Technical Dictionary, Day 2: Frontend & Backend Every app has a front of house and a back of house. Same as a restaurant. The frontend is what you see and touch. Think of Amazon, or any website you use. → The menu bar, the buttons, the search box. Everything on screen is just a list of things you're allowed to ask for. That's the menu, the dining room, the host stand. But nothing on that menu is actually happening at your table. When you hit "Buy Now," it's like placing an order with a waiter. He walks it back, the kitchen cooks it, and he brings it out when it's ready. The backend = the kitchen. You'll find database, business logic, server. Anything heavy (pulling your order history, processing a payment, sending an email) happens back there. The frontend only handles what fits at the table: how the buttons look, what color the page is, the small animations etc. Think Michelin star. They're not torching your steak tableside. They need the walk-in, the grill, the prep station, the sous chef. Software is the same. The interesting work needs the full kitchen. When a service like Cloudflare or AWS goes down and takes half the internet with it, that's a backend problem. The ghost kitchen caught fire and every restaurant relying on it went dark. A frontend problem is the one you've seen a hundred times: a button that won't click, text piled on top of an image, a page that looks broken on your phone. Frontend is form, where backend is function.

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

    @peduarte @SlackHQ Is that a problem? Companies need to have this access for compliance & legal reasons. Don’t assume anything private stays private if it’s shared over company platforms :)

    AVOID using @SlackHQ at all costs. The UI is TERRIBLE. I get random notifications under "Activity" and it is impossible to find. So there is a red bubble notification that will never goes away. It happens all of the time. FREAKING TERRIBLE! Impossible to track down.

    @SlackHQ the mobile app has significantly regressed. why do I have a DM tab and an activity tab that only lets me filter down to DMs again? I want to easily filter for mentions.

    @SlackHQ @question_base why not fix your own agent first?

    @xsupport @slackHQ X links on slack (android) Still not working. All other sites redirect properly from slack. Just NOT X.

    In this day and age of infosec threats, this subject line from @SlackHQ is a bad call. After the brief cortisol spike that someone using the name Miles Davis had joined our Slack, I scrolled down, and then just wondered why on earth I would want this in my work communication tool.

    @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.

    @SlackHQ came out of a failing 10-person game studio the team needed a way to coordinate that wasn't email they built it for themselves then realized every distributed team on earth had the same problem

    @peduarte @SlackHQ I like how the proposed community note is like ‘no they can’t’ then you read the slack docs and there is a self service export tool for org owners

    hello @SlackHQ team there’s a very annoying bug that makes agents in slack significantly worse UX and is probably crushing engagement. can someone help

  • aquamarineB788
    Alain テスラ ヘルシオ (@aquamarineB788) reported

    @SlackHQ what is wrong with u? I’m telling you change email because my company domain changed; it’s asking me to confirm new address, when i click on email, it wants me to login again, new address doesn’t work, with new address you’re SMS says too many attempts. Why do have to make this so difficult? I don’t like to waste my time.

    I love when @SlackHQ offers a nominal discount for a paid service you already get included with @GoogleWorkspace and @Microsoft365. If your paying $12 a month for Slack, you still need the other. Stop being wasteful with Slack Pro.

    Not 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

    Jimidate (@Jimidvte) reported

    @SlackHQ, I’m having issues with my mobile notifications. I’ve checked every setting on my phone, uninstalled and reinstalled the app, yet I still don’t receive any push notifications. I’m missing time-sensitive information because I have to open the app before I see any updates.

    @scott_peterson4 @SlackHQ I wonder if they intentionally don't fix it so you keep opening the app to try and clear it
