mewc (@the_mewc) reported@SlackHQ lots of bugs and issues right now. Can't create channels and lots of jankyness. This release is a lot.

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 🫶

HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported8a On my morning @Zoom with Jbazmine. Planning out the day, so we can work out the plan. Going through and getting eMail down to zero and assigning tasks in @SlackHQ.
-
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? 👀

Henry Schuck (@HenryLSchuck) reportedEVERY @ZoomInfo customer can connect @claudeai and ZoomInfo together right now- but how about in @SlackHQ ? With Claude? Here’s how to build a targeted prospect list and account plan without leaving Slack. (In <5 minutes) Step 1: Ask Claude directly inside Slack to build you a list I asked for… “25 CROs and VPs of Sales based in Boston, at software companies between 500–1k employees, with $100M+ in funding. Name, title, email, mobile, total funding.” It taps straight into your Zoominfo database and all comes back right there in the channel. It even flags who is on your do not call list. Step 2: Pick an account. Ask Claude to prep you for the call, directly in Slack. It uses Zoominfo to pull every conversation you've had with them - calls, emails, pain points they've raised, products they use. It comes back with the leadership you NEED to know, what's happening at the account right now and specific angles that could help you win. This works inside Claude too when you connect it up to our MCP server - you can even ask it to build you a custom interface to sort, edit, and work the data however you want. Zoominfo is going to show up EVERYWHERE. Slack, Claude, wherever you're doing GTM work, your data should follow you there.

Krazed 🇵🇸 (@Krazed) reported@SlackHQ you have a degradation rn? unable to create channels and getting intermittent issues with events
-
Björne 🇸🇪🏋️♂️ (@SilchQuatch) reported@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?

Cathryn (@cathrynlavery) reported@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.

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 😢

Dog (@coinandcrypto) reported@SlackHQ Most AI agents fail because they’re written by bloated enterprise teams who don’t really know what problem they’re solving.
-
Rahul Chetia (@ayoImNotTrippin) reported@SlackHQ there’s a widespread issue with slack today. Not sure about Mac but my entire team with windows seems to be impacted. Slack becomes irresponsive on windows a few minutes in. Tried ‘repair’ and force close, but no help there. We are using app in our phones to communicate.
-
Taksh Shah (@takshshahh) reportedSomeone at @SlackHQ needs to fix how they deal with markdown. Its markdown but not really? Pasting stuff from elsewhere sometimes preserves formatting, sometimes doesnt? I had to do workarounds when working with API, but pasting content from claude in the messagebox is terrible
-
Kevin (@kevin0connell) reported@SlackHQ I can also replicate this problem
-
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
-
Rohan (@iamTRA) reportedSlack upload API down? @SlackHQ Cratered team's morning.
-
KC (@exPUNISHER) reported@salesforce @MrBeast @SlackHQ Jimmy texted Pyramid! Write that down, it won't be in the code though.
-
josh (@JoshCaughtFire) reported@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
-
Tabish (@todotodo17731) reported@SlackHQ please improve your Software... 70-80% time we face audio issue.. I think your Software in not production Ready... Why ******* companies using such Software... Hello hwllo Hello .. *******... M I Audioable.... Hello can u hear me.

Jide (@rhymezx_code) reported@SlackHQ Tell me why Slack desktop is not working on Ubuntu 26.04 ( Resolute Raccoon ) ??? Honestly i have tried o #Ubuntu
-
sir frankie (@developeraspire) reported130mbps I can’t upload or download images on slack. but I am streaming youtube in 4k. @SlackHQ what is going on with you? fix up please.
-
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
-
mr.tipton (@mrtipton_art) reported@pizzaboy @SlackHQ Nah, I’m that guy. Gotta fix it
-
Kitayoshi (@kitayoshi_son) reported@alphato_o @SlackHQ Even a sticky banner hanging on the workspace saying “Your workspace will be shutting down” on the chat page would be better. They could even use the UI components for the 90-day limit. Today’s behavior makes it seem like they just don’t care.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@natochi_ @fdosmither @SlackHQ Based on the screenshot, I'm guessing that unread notification is a sneaky DM from someone in your workspace—maybe a quick question or a meme that's buried in the Activity tab. Slack's UI can be tricky; try filtering by "Select unreads" to hunt it down!
-
Shantanu (@shantanughosh) reported@SlackHQ is the new Webex. Absolutely terrible performance and difficult to use on cellular networks in India now. I was so excited when the company I joined used Zoom instead on that terrible terrible productivity waste that was Webex. That’s slack now.
-
Travis Peters (@SivvyRat) reported@SlackHQ You have no way to provide feedback within your app so... your snap installer has major issues.

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