Slack Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Design__Pattern James Singleton (@Design__Pattern) reported

    Looks like @SlackHQ's mobile app is having some issues... It says I have 1 notification, I don't... I can't load any of the channels or mark things as read...

  • DMJreports Daniel M. Jimenez (@DMJreports) reported

    @WaveConnects I pay @WaveConnects, not @SlackHQ for Internet service. I don't care who does what, but "not our problem" is in no way an adequate response.

  • BokhariSpace Syed Hussain Haider Bokhari 🛰️ (@BokhariSpace) reported

    @SlackHQ why are you down?

  • q0rban James Sansbury (@q0rban) reported

    @SlackHQ Thanks! If it's helpful, it seems like a DNS issue.

  • yoni_ze_asmera Nebsi Hussle (@yoni_ze_asmera) reported

  • RachelBkr Rachel Baker (@RachelBkr) reported

    @SlackHQ is down. It's fine.

  • AnnAileenOCon Dr. Ann Aileen O'Connell (@AnnAileenOCon) reported

    @SlackHQ any news on when the connection issue today will be resolved? love slack but need it back before my 8am class tomorrow...

  • dnsmichi Michael Friedrich, left shifting SLOs ⛷ (@dnsmichi) reported

    @ProchazkaFilip 8.8.8.8 and other public resolvers invalidate their zones cache faster than the zone TTL. The problem is a broken @SlackHQ dns zone in caching resolvers with a TTL of several hours to go. If you pick a faster recursive resolver, DNS works again.

  • dananairn Dana Nairn (@dananairn) reported

    @SlackStatus Not much a person can do when their 3rd party IT provider locks down the ability to make any DNS changes. Would prefer you just fix it, @SlackHQ . Thanks.

  • notamynguyen 𝔰𝔞𝔡𝔤𝔞𝔩𝔪𝔦𝔪𝔦 (@notamynguyen) reported

    @SlackHQ I can’t seem to access any form of slack due to server issues. Help!

  • VModifiedMind Vince (@VModifiedMind) reported

    @strayologist @hapapower @SlackHQ And slack now have posted on status that it is a dns issue, which was obvious to the wider internet community hours ago.

  • Dilpickle1 Dylan | Dilpickle1 (@Dilpickle1) reported

    Hey @SlackHQ, yall seem to be slackin' over there. Hope yall fix the outage soon!

  • georgiahslater Georgia Slater (@georgiahslater) reported

    @SlackHQ I've been having issues all afternoon and can't get onto my slack on desktop or my phone. Will this be resolved soon?

  • sai_venkatesh99 Sai Venkatesh (@sai_venkatesh99) reported

    @SlackHQ Your phone app is been showing the connectivity issues and not loading the data for me. Even, the desktop app is not working. Do you have any update please?

  • nexgencodecamp nexgencodecamp (@nexgencodecamp) reported

    @SlackHQ Thanks for the prompt reply -here in Sydney Australia things are not working - not sure if the Geography is relevant

  • Fireburns18 Fireburns (@Fireburns18) reported

    @Kuipo @SlackStatus Yes! That's right! Horse dewormer will fix the DNS issue! @SlackHQ have you tried horse dewormer?!

  • johnlkinsella John Kinsella (@johnlkinsella) reported

    "This issue was caused by our own change and not related to any third-party DNS software and services." Goddamn - transparency and owning issues! Thanks @SlackHQ!

  • ChristopherBudd Christopher Budd (@ChristopherBudd) reported

    What should @SlackHQ have done differently? Because if I'm going to criticize I should be specific. 1. Ack'd the outage on the main handle and direct people to the status handle for more updates. 2. The status page should have redundancies so it doesn't go down.

  • GusssCM Gus | Community Manager (@GusssCM) reported

    @LaurennnBianca @SlackHQ Having the same problem!

  • DarkainMX Vincent Milum Jr (@DarkainMX) reported

    @SlackHQ @LaurennnBianca "You can stay updated here on Twitter" Other than replying to random people, you've yet to actually make any statements about the outage on twitter. Not sure how we're supposed to stay updated..? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
