    slack going down for 30 minutes was like the apocalypse for tech startups @SlackHQ PLEASE dont scare me like that again

    @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 🫠

    people in my circles are shutting down their entire servers over your new policies that haven't landed, but it's this bullshit that makes me want to find ANY other platform than yours. except @SlackHQ of course. even though they have improved while you haven't.

    There’s this huge bug in slack where if you click on a draft message from your drafts on iPhone, Slack just fully deletes the draft message and opens an empty composer. This made me lose a lot of work. @SlackHQ you can fix this with claude. Just paste this tweet there.

    @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.

    first you need to fix the rate limits @SlackHQ

    Have 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!!!

    In all seriousness, would love some help debugging an issue @SlackAPI @SlackHQ

    @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.

    @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

    Hi @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 🫶

  • aunder

    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.

    @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

    Is @SlackHQ broken today - I am using Focus mode - seems like the emoticons are breaking.

    liking the new slack activity view—still getting used to it. One thing: it doesn’t respect the “Just display names” setting. Is a fix coming? 👀 @SlackHQ

  • kitayoshi_son
    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.

  • edweirdsnowman

    @SlackHQ slack huddles has had video audio sync issues since it’s been launched. Please deploy at least 7 agents to fix this immediately.

  • kanute

    Thinking about ditching @SlackHQ just because unfurling sucks so bad. Seems like this has been an issue for years. Spent way too much time trying to get reliable unfurling when my @openclaw bot posts.

  • 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

  • tonydehnke
    Tony Dehnke - building 12v.Biz 🧰 & more (@tonydehnke) reported

    @yongfook Weird you had some many issues. My last few have gone really well. The most annoying app is @SlackHQ which sucks as it makes you log into each space again. Hopefully your next one goes better!

  • matt_slotnick
    Matt Slotnick (@matt_slotnick) reported

    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

    @SlackHQ Tell me why Slack desktop is not working on Ubuntu 26.04 ( Resolute Raccoon ) ??? Honestly i have tried o

    @BarknTuncer @SlackHQ yeah notification sync issues are still surprisingly common

  • calvinclee
    Calvin Lee (@calvinclee) reported

    @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.

  • anmolarora_tw
    Anmol (@anmolarora_tw) reported

    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

    @jeffreyhuber @SlackHQ have Jeff fix this for you pls

  • kavindpadi
    Shiva Kavindpadi (@kavindpadi) reported

    Anyone using @clawdbot with @SlackHQ? The bot is often missing the context of the thread.. don't think it is clawdbots issue but more of slack thread notification.. though asked it to read additional thread messages, it is still hit and miss without sacrificing tokens!

  • FluorineHQ
    Fluorine (@FluorineHQ) reported

    @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.

    Our community slack channel with 1800 active members have been affected by the massive channel delete from Slack, we have tried to email them, call them but received no helpful support for a week. @SlackHQ Really appreciate if anyone could help bring our community back 🙏🙏🙏
