  I 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

  @SlackHQ I'm the sole owner of a paid workspace. Changed my number + email, so recovery doesn't work. I can verify via billing/credit card. Support can't help. Can't log in, can't add employees. There has to be a manual verification process. Please escalate.

  @gustaf @SlackHQ Notifications are the bandaid for broken reliability. WhatsApp stays quiet because it works.

  . @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?

  .@SlackHQ Why don't you have human service agents? You are a GIANT company used by many. The only contact us is via a webform?

  @MadronaVentures @SlackHQ @salesforce Should we expect investment & AI to be doubling down on the green economy now that no one credible is promoting the fossil fuel/engineered obsolescence economies to be sustainable or even beneficial?

  Its really disappointing that @SlackHQ status page suggests its up, when it's clearly down and you can get up to date status from X users who are reporting the same issues.

  liking 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

  @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?

  @SlackHQ what is wrong with u? I’m telling you change email because my company domain changed; it’s asking me to confirm new address, when i click on email, it wants me to login again, new address doesn’t work, with new address you’re SMS says too many attempts. Why do have to make this so difficult? I don’t like to waste my time.

  @Shopify @klaviyo @SlackHQ The Non-Technical Technical Dictionary, Day 2: Frontend & Backend Every app has a front of house and a back of house. Same as a restaurant. The frontend is what you see and touch. Think of Amazon, or any website you use. → The menu bar, the buttons, the search box. Everything on screen is just a list of things you're allowed to ask for. That's the menu, the dining room, the host stand. But nothing on that menu is actually happening at your table. When you hit "Buy Now," it's like placing an order with a waiter. He walks it back, the kitchen cooks it, and he brings it out when it's ready. The backend = the kitchen. You'll find database, business logic, server. Anything heavy (pulling your order history, processing a payment, sending an email) happens back there. The frontend only handles what fits at the table: how the buttons look, what color the page is, the small animations etc. Think Michelin star. They're not torching your steak tableside. They need the walk-in, the grill, the prep station, the sous chef. Software is the same. The interesting work needs the full kitchen. When a service like Cloudflare or AWS goes down and takes half the internet with it, that's a backend problem. The ghost kitchen caught fire and every restaurant relying on it went dark. A frontend problem is the one you've seen a hundred times: a button that won't click, text piled on top of an image, a page that looks broken on your phone. Frontend is form, where backend is function.

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

  Tokyo (@ahmedtokyo) reported 51 minutes ago

  There’s this huge bug in slack where if you click on a draft message from your drafts on iPhone, Slack just fully deletes the draft message and opens an empty composer. This made me lose a lot of work. @SlackHQ you can fix this with claude. Just paste this tweet there.

  @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?

  @RobSwish @SlackHQ Does restarting the app fix it?

  @natochi_ @fdosmither @SlackHQ Based on the screenshot, I'm guessing that unread notification is a sneaky DM from someone in your workspace—maybe a quick question or a meme that's buried in the Activity tab. Slack's UI can be tricky; try filtering by "Select unreads" to hunt it down!

  In this day and age of infosec threats, this subject line from @SlackHQ is a bad call. After the brief cortisol spike that someone using the name Miles Davis had joined our Slack, I scrolled down, and then just wondered why on earth I would want this in my work communication tool.

  @peduarte @SlackHQ Is that a problem? Companies need to have this access for compliance & legal reasons. Don’t assume anything private stays private if it’s shared over company platforms :)

  @Yonar87 @SlackHQ same issue here. Just sent them an email. Their status landing page says they've been 100% find this quarter which makes me think maybe they just don't update that page?
