Slack Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • gz_k Gaetan Zoritchak (@gz_k) reported

    @clacote Diminished apps are still apps. The problem comes when editors like @SlackHQ for example decides to make their apps stop working with OS older than iOS 13.3 and Android 8. It forces people to change their hardware (I know a few that dit it because of it). That’s really bad.

  • ntotten Nathan Totten (@ntotten) reported

    Am I doing something wrong, or does @NotionHQ really not support preview's when you post a link in @SlackHQ ? This feels very broken. :/

  • kate_guarente Kate Guarente-Smith (@kate_guarente) reported

    @SlackHQ Hi! Is the login issue perhaps rearing its head again? I can't login to several workspaces via oath or email magic link...TY!

  • Superpig Richard Fine (@Superpig) reported

    @SlackHQ @jon_cham How would bookmark folders help with the problem of people not looking at the pinned items before asking questions?

  • CaBzX Charles (@CaBzX) reported

    Hey @SlackHQ ! My gifs aren't working anymore since I upgraded to Android 12 with Google Pixel 4XL; Gifs were the main reason it make work bearable on my phone. Please help!

  • tomn94 Thomas  (@tomn94) reported

    @SlackHQ No problem, appreciated! :+1: In the end I just wish the shortcut was different

  • gladiatr Stephen Spencer (@gladiatr) reported

    @SlackHQ there seems to be a problem logging in to private slack accounts. Whassup?

  • MonkeyJoness gul (@MonkeyJoness) reported

    @SlackHQ my account deactivated help me out

  • birdonfire John Prestel (@birdonfire) reported

    .@SlackHQ for the love of Pete, please fix the caching on workspace switcher. There are no unread messages in these other workspaces! The dots drive me mad! 😖😡

  • hpcdev1 hpcdev (@hpcdev1) reported

    @MicrosoftTeams, meet @SlackHQ. They don't seem to have issues with images loading in their latest release. Lots of issues with @Microsoft365 products this week (all started Friday).

  • punksmurf Punksmurf (@punksmurf) reported

    Seems like the @SlackHQ workspace switching issues on mobile have been fixed for a while! 👏🏻 Funny how you don’t really notice it when a friction has been gone.

  • katiehal16 🎃👻 Spooky Pumpkin Katie 👻🎃 (she/her) (@katiehal16) reported

    @SlackHQ Gifs aren't working in the Android app! :( Any fix forthcoming?

  • ralner Ray Alner (@ralner) reported

    @SlackHQ when u gonna fix slack for Win11 I swear it’s a laggy mess. Worst thing ever

  • PaulOBrien Paul O'Brien (@PaulOBrien) reported

    Still really enjoying this device. Windows on ARM mostly a non issue, biggest gap for me is the lack of a good native video editor. Nice to have Photoshop and Lightroom which perform great, but need Premiere Pro! Easy wins like @SlackHQ and @discord still not on ARM either. Tut!

  • shriniket73 Shriniket Acharya (@shriniket73) reported

    Problem while using @SlackHQ and @NotionHQ together. CMD + Shift + C CMD + E #IYKYK

  • T0ny_Boy Tony (@T0ny_Boy) reported

    @SlackHQ Seems like the login with gmail is not working. No spam mail or normal mail with sign in code is being received on phone or on desktop. Guess I am locked out :(

  • Superpig Richard Fine (@Superpig) reported

    @SlackHQ Just to be clear (as I think I misread your previous response a bit) - we already have channels where the description/topic says 'check pinned items.' The problem is that people don't read it...

  • alextwenzel Alex Wenzel (@alextwenzel) reported

    I still believe that @SlackHQ could instantly make themselves the top-tier team messaging service by adding a "mark as unread" feature. Email has had this for multiple decades, idk why we can't do it in "next generation" platforms.

  • jackbremer Jack ₿remer ——— ҉——— (@jackbremer) reported

    Anyone else got @SlackHQ not working when you hit ⬆ to edit the message you just sent? For me it just kinda highlights the message above with dotted line around.

  • caitlynhutchis Caitlyn Hutchison (@caitlynhutchis) reported

    "We think you're overreacting" - @SlackHQ error message 😙

  • RossBarbour Ross (@RossBarbour) reported

    @SlackHQ hey there is this weird bug where if you click on someone’s profile to message them directly from a group message, it opens the group message again and not the private one, and trust me, it’s going to get someone in trouble one day.

  • ayushtrivedi Ayush Trivedi (@ayushtrivedi) reported

    @SlackHQ @PatrickKlug Still getting this @SlackHQ and it's becoming quite annoying. Is there a workaround/fix for this? I'm on Production 4.22.0 64-bit

  • rahulsom Rahul Somasunderam (@rahulsom) reported

    @SlackHQ should allow setting a max size on the first message in a thread. People eager to get help tend to paste the whole stack trace in a busy channel. That makes scrolling through that channel harder.

  • dan_sutton dan sutton (@dan_sutton) reported

    @SlackHQ Do you have a contact who could help out large open source programming language communities who use Slack?

  • isbkch iLyas BK (@isbkch) reported

    @aaitaazizi @SlackHQ Terrible...

  • theversusverses Peter L. (@theversusverses) reported

    @frmrlyknownasem @SlackHQ take it up with the creators of emoji, i suppose. it's universally like that on every service

  • jeringeok91 jern (@jeringeok91) reported

    @SlackHQ Could be. Yes it's SSO login. What I'm looking for is a notification to indicate that I am automatically logged out. Btw, this issue is not present in mobile devices.

  • obizuth Anitza Valles (@obizuth) reported

    @SlackHQ why are images not working on both desktop and mobile app for me? Just happened all of a sudden! On desktop macOS app it tries to open in browser but fails. iOS app it spins forever but never loads.

  • Remzztrades Remz (@Remzztrades) reported

    Not sure who’s more useless, the people who run the @SlackStatus @SlackHQ twitter account or Mark from customer service.. I tell them slack freezes every time I open an existing thread and they tell me to take a screen shot and send it to them .. really lmao

  • CBDoverdose stugots II (@CBDoverdose) reported

    @SlackHQ I’m begging you guys to stop using the slack noise in commercials. It doesn’t help your brand, and only serves to trigger people who already are users
