Chris Munns (@chrismunns) reportedsomehow @SlackHQ filtering of channels/DMs for last 30 days active hasn't worked for me for months. is this just a broken feature or have I done a thing.

siggy bilstein (@sbilstein) reported@evisdrenova hmm kinda like Kaniko caching locally, but I think the problem is that the industry has broadly gotten used to very slow deploy pipelines. Back when I was at @SlackHQ in like 2018, we used to SCP the monolith across the fleet and deploy in a couple minutes. Containerization is awesome for various reasons but it has gotten an entire generation of developers to just expect builds + deploys to take at least 15 and usually closer to 45. I do wonder how much perf you could squeeze out with replacing BuildKit but I imagine it's already highly optimized. I just *feel* like developers shouldn't have to think so much about why their builds are slow.

jbv 🌟 (@jbv) reportedliking 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
-
Salman (@m_salman_afzal) reported@SlackHQ But whether they decide to act on it will depend how much they prioritize the issue. And this is what open source could become as well. We can only report but only their agent factories can now contribute. So, it kind of is closed source since no one is now reading the 100k loc

HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported6:30a Getting eMail down to zero. Planning out the work, so I can work out the plan. Loading support and production into @SlackHQ.
-
Salman (@m_salman_afzal) reportedno meaningful way to contribute. Just like closed source/proprietary software, you can report issues, but whether it gets fixed or not depends upon the creator. For example, there are couple of issue that I reported to @SlackHQ regarding screen sharing popups,

LANGERIUS (@Langerius) reported@BarknTuncer @SlackHQ yeah notification sync issues are still surprisingly common

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
-
John Harnett (@JohnHarnett) reported@cyberomin @digitalandreas @SlackHQ If you've filed a bug with them on the last 5 years and arent a big co then you'd know. They dont fix stuff just because it's broken.
-
Gap | Suby (@gaspardlezin) reportedCan someone please buy @SlackHQ and shut it down? This platform is horrible.
-
HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported6a Getting eMail down to zero, loading up the team is @SlackHQ. Planning the day, so I can work the plan.

Awais alwaisy (@alvaisy) reported@adilmania @SlackHQ what's wrong with slack. bunch of alternatives. each one made money. slack is still stable and useful. i don't have any issue with slakc except limited message history for free users
-
Ajith Joseph (@theajithjoseph) reportedFriday thought. @stewart raised $17 million to build a video game. 3 years of work! 40 people. And almost nobody wanted to play it. He shut it down in December 2012 and laid off most of the team. The only thing left standing was the chat tool they'd built to talk to each other while working on it. That tool was @SlackHQ. @salesforce bought it for $27.7 billion. The thing you're building in the quiet stretch isn't wasted. Sometimes it turns out to be the actual product.

Angelo 🇵🇷 (@ngeloxyz) reported@chrismunns @SlackHQ lmao its broken for me too I am using Railway's client for Slack now + Beeper for DMs.
-
Michael Grinich (@grinich) reported@SlackHQ Please fix the rate limits. The current Slack API is practically useless since you reduced them.
-
Gary McMillian (@GaryMcMillianTX) reported@SlackHQ You need to fix your search before moving on to AI.
-
SGN (@SGN06380601) reported@SlackHQ i need customer service help and am not getting a response from your agentforce. can you please help?
-
Vortex (@mjparme) reported@SlackHQ why is there no obvious way to join a channel in Slack? Seems like a huge usability problem, the + sign next to channels creates a channel, but joining one is very elusive
-
Mike Rochefort 🐧 (@omenosdev) reported@SlackHQ I've sent a message in via the feedback address, but for 4.50.136 either there's been an undisclosed change of GPG keys used in signing Linux packages or the wrong key was used accidentally. For environments with strict package verification this leads to install errors.
-
GosuCoder (@GosuCoder) reportedSlackbot legit might be one of my favorite uses of AI outside of coding. I use this thing constantly to find past conversations, summarize entire chats, help write responses, look for things I might be forgetting, or even look up past context on a decision or topic. Seriously @SlackHQ this legit improves my life
-
Rohit Kashyap | AI + Full-Stack (@rohit_jsfreaky) reported@purionx @SlackHQ @salesforce tables in slack would genuinely help, wild that it took this long to even be a request
-
MarketingMax.com (@MarketingMax) reportedI never call out bad marketing But this is just infuriating. I pay them thousands of dollars a year, have the app installed in my computer, phone, and even iPad … so why did I get this? And why is it not optimized for dark iPhones? Let me know if you need help @SlackHQ @Benioff
-
Sam Pullara (@sampullara) reported@thdxr @SlackHQ No one wants all replies to show up in the channel. It is a terrible defauu.
-
JM (@merklejosh) reported@SlackHQ There seems to be a bug in your Version 4.50.140 app (Mac) where if you have open a New message and you try to then click in the Search bar, you can't – it just flashes. Can you please fix this. It's very annoying. Thanks!
-
Stache (@stacheFonzi) reportedIt's from 2011, but I still miss Glitch. It was a browser based MMO based on collecting and crafting. Crazily enough it was made by the company that went on to rebrand and make @SlackHQ. The messaging system in the game became the basis for Slack.
-
TheHardTruth (@Watching1776) reported@SlackHQ You need to fix that app so it stops putting people into Auto Silence repeatedly without touching anything. Your code is trash
