Antonio Ventre (@antonioventre_) reported@resulvol @RealFeatBit @SlackHQ Sure guys anyone who need help can text be and they’ll restore your access for 30 days so you can still work on the account while the migrate
-
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 😢
-
The Disci (@the_discip) reported@SlackHQ Fix the ******* RTL
-
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.
-
Jeremy Levine (@JerLevine) reported@SlackHQ you guys have a gnarly bug and flow issue on iPad that makes the catchup feature (my fav ever) almost unusable. When I forward a message the app often crashes. If it doesn’t it moves me to the new chat (where I forwarded) but drops all the navigation so there’s no ability to get anywhere. I need to force quit and then restart slack to be able to navigate anywhere. Please fix! Can’t live without the catch up feature!

kevbosaurus (@kevbosaurus) reportedFwiw, I feel less productive when @googledocs is down and more productive when @SlackHQ is down. #googledocsdown

Jordy.app (@Jordy_vD_) reported. @SlackHQ slack gets a lot of things right, but the iOS app’s search functionality is very bad. Can I please chat with someone who can then hopefully fix it?
-
Antonio Ventre (@antonioventre_) reportedA lot of companies in Hong Kong today got kicked out from shared @SlackHQ channels with clients etc However, Slack sent multiple emails to everyone back in February to move to Alibaba Cloud We did the migration in March, for 2 of our companies, and forced to do yearly plans (can’t do monthly subs with Alibaba Cloud) No major issues faced, apart from the fact that we doubled paid, since after the yearly payment they charged monthly again (but said that they will refund) If anyone has problems DM me, I have direct phone access with a representative and could fix this potentially asap
-
Joey Kudish (@jkudish) reported@mike_hasarms @SlackHQ Perhaps not but they’re being used that way (I’m in a few that I need to be in for work) and spam is a real problem. They should either force them to move elsewhere or offer spam moderation/ reporting tools. Status quo isn’t working.

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.

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.

Tarwin Stroh-Spijer (@tarwin) reported@SlackHQ Please please fix it. How did this go out? It's not like it's even on random Windows laptop. It's a new Mac ! 90% of your engineers and testers probably use the same machine.

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!
