    I just learned you can basically see all @SlackHQ profile images publicly without the need for authenticated request. Isn't this both a #privacy issue and security issue? I mean, you can basically fetch them from ca.slack-edge dot com. #slack #privacyprotection

    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!!!

    I'm trying to download an attachment on Slack but it never finishes 🤔 The progress bar just gets stuck and I've been trying to copy the link to the file and open it in the browser to download it but now that's not working either. @SlackHQ @SlackStatus

    @SlackHQ Please fix the rate limits. The current Slack API is practically useless since you reduced them.

    @aaditsh @adilmania @SlackHQ Same, it's 10 times better than discord, teams, hangout, zoom, etc. Not sure about newer apps but I literally have 0 issues with slack. It's really good with connect too if you work with external companies, beats email by light years.

    @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.

    7a Planning out the day in Google Calendar and loading the team in @SlackHQ. Getting email down to zero.

    @ManusAI @SlackHQ This kind of UX that charges users instantly without a clear confirmation step is unacceptable. @ManusAI please fix this and issue a refund. Users should NOT be charged $394 by mistake.

    @SlackHQ @linear @cursor_ai Slack is a garbage product. Everything about it is trash. The reliability is trash, the support is trash, and the way you handle users is absolute trash. Impressive how consistently terrible you manage to be.

  • arashdehkordiHQ
    Ari Dehkordi (@arashdehkordiHQ) reported

    @karrisaarinen @SlackHQ Did Linear do this before agents? I tried project-level Slack channels at my org and found it works for enterprise engagements nicely, but breaks down at feature/epic level projects for our SaaS. There's a granularity sweet spot, too fine and context switching costs spike. Too coarse and projects blur. Plus no project is actually isolated in small teams, so cross-project conversations forced more people onto each channel and productive engagement suffered. I get the AI context-confinement angle, but curious what other benefits you're seeing?

  • 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.

    @OpenAI @linear @SlackHQ The agent that pulls context from docs, email, chats, and code to update your Linear ticket: "status: someone else's problem"

    @SlackHQ I’m the Primary Owner of my company workspace & completely locked out. Lost 2FA phone number + original email is dead. No backup codes. Submitted a ticket but need help ASAP — my team is stuck. Please DM me 🙏 #SlackSupport

    7:30a Back home, getting the boys up, getting eMail down to zero, loading the team up with today's support and production website work (in @SlackHQ).

    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?

  • Oxymarun_
    Arun Sharma (@Oxymarun_) reported

    @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

    @SlackHQ your file uploads are terrible

  • jason_alco
    Jason Alco (@jason_alco) reported

    @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 🫠

    @samlambert @joshmgross It’s almost impossible to mention a bug in Slack and get anyone at @SlackHQ to fix it.

    slack needs to fix the way they handle media uploads. it is terrible. @SlackHQ please fix up.

  • IamJoshJackson
    Josh Jackson (@IamJoshJackson) reported

    @scott_peterson4 @SlackHQ I wonder if they intentionally don't fix it so you keep opening the app to try and clear it

  • YouPulseX
    Paul Sant · Telecodex (@YouPulseX) reported

    @pizzaboy @karrisaarinen @SlackHQ Then "project channel" is a default, not a scope. The issue list command still follows the caller's workspace visibility.

    @RealFeatBit @SlackHQ same. and just yesterday they push new AI....wonder is it relevant. no email notification, all connections and their official server status are normal. can open new workspace no problem.

    @SlackHQ Always good to see Slack doubling down on productivity, not noise.
