@SlackHQ your file uploads are terrible
LoopGantt (@loopgantt) reported 5 minutes ago
@NotionHQ @SlackHQ Channel-scoped agents fix the biggest AI rollout blocker — broad access feels risky to admins. Smart default.
Akshay (✈️ NYC) (@AgentAkki) reported 7 minutes ago
@kurushdubash @patriciosainzr @SlackHQ 👋I work at Slack. Could you share a screenshot or more details on what's not working?
Akshay (✈️ NYC) (@AgentAkki) reported 12 minutes ago
@RTFern @SlackHQ Sorry about that, Ryan! I work at slack. Tell me more about what’s not working for you?
Chinthan B M (@mrchintz) reported 22 minutes ago
@SlackHQ Down?
Kitayoshi (@kitayoshi_son) reported 23 minutes ago
@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.
Giuseppe Skyline (@giskyexplorer) reported 27 minutes ago
@gustaf @SlackHQ Notifications are the bandaid for broken reliability. WhatsApp stays quiet because it works.
MarketingMax.com (@MarketingMax) reported 28 minutes ago
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
Michael Grinich (@grinich) reported 29 minutes ago
@SlackHQ Please fix the rate limits. The current Slack API is practically useless since you reduced them.
Gustaf Alströmer (@gustaf) reported 30 minutes ago
@karrisaarinen @ycombinator @SlackHQ I'm experiencing reliability issues with Slack. Message's aren't sent. Messages can't be deleted. App not loading properly. I haven't had any of those issues with Whatsapp ever to be honest. Messages on iPhone is even worse. It's nearly unusable for me.
HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported 34 minutes ago
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).
Ken Liao (@YukanL) reported 35 minutes ago
It's been almost 2 days since @SlackHQ deleted our company workspace without warning. Aside from a vague email a few months ago about migrating to a different reseller in our region, there was no communication at all leading up to the deletion. Support only responds with the same message template telling us to reach out to sales and hasn't responded to followups since yesterday. Some of the worst SaaS customer service I've ever experienced. What are the best alternatives to Slack?
Jon ShapeShift (@JonShapeShift) reported 37 minutes ago
@lorenzodoteth @SlackHQ Having same issue, driving me nuts
Troy Ruediger (@troy_ruediger) reported 40 minutes ago
@Benioff @scottastevenson @SlackHQ That’s so much easier than seeing business owners try and argue for their products usability. Could very well be user error but irrelevant after this approach. Both sides on the same team working to make things better. Very smooth MB.
M. Yahia (@maddada) reported 41 minutes ago
@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.
Dan Mazy (@danmazy1) reported 43 minutes ago
@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
Jeffrey A Tucker (@jeffreytucker) reported 45 minutes ago
@SlackHQ your headphone icon on huddles is a huge annoyance and an invasion of privacy for everyone. Users can turn it off but there should be the ability to shut this down for the whole workspace. We really don't need to know who is talking with whom at any one time.
Evgeny (@PlotnikovDev) reported 48 minutes ago
@adilmania @SlackHQ What problem with slack? We use slack and discord.
JIM EVANS (@JEVANSCPM) reported 49 minutes ago
@SlackHQ @slack_community not sure what happened and on who’s side, but after your recent update I’m having major issues opening your program. (Mac OS)
HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported 50 minutes ago
7a Getting email down to zero, loading tasks in my Google Calendar and passing work to the team in @SlackHQ.
Amanda (@hey_amandam) reported 50 minutes ago
@TejasKumar_ @SlackHQ Yes 👏 The issue with this (and all things like it) for me is that there seems to be some idea that anyone sees "AI" and immediately associates that with some value. What user pain of mine are you solving? I literally do not care if you are using AI or not to solve it, I just want the best experience. Explore AI as a cta is a waste of space and my mental energy
HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported 54 minutes ago
7:30a Getting eMail down to zero. Planning out my day in Google Calendar. Loading the team in @SlackHQ with today's website production and support.
Matthew Weissman (@MATTtheWEISS) reported 54 minutes ago
@cjhuts @claudeai @SlackHQ Any service related ai platforms you would consider for your agency ? Or any ai platforms in general?
Taksh Shah (@takshshahh) reported 55 minutes ago
Someone at @SlackHQ needs to fix how they deal with markdown. Its markdown but not really? Pasting stuff from elsewhere sometimes preserves formatting, sometimes doesnt? I had to do workarounds when working with API, but pasting content from claude in the messagebox is terrible
Paul Tellefsen (@technopaul) reported 55 minutes ago
@SlackHQ Anyone else having app problems on MacOS when you go to resize the window it moves it instead of sizing? Been like this for a month or more now!
Riley Read-Only (@HotForMoot) reported 56 minutes ago
Cmon @SlackHQ help the tfr
Kleptocracy (@lfdoyfydoydtd) reported 56 minutes ago
@salesforce @SlackHQ Instead of buying other crappy software companies, create the best sales rep. SFDC 1.0>2.0>3.0... ITS ALL SO BROKEN. Broken company that had a chance to replace salespeople but didn’t use the data and systems they already had to make it happen with agents. WTF is agentforce?
Darcy (@darcy_jpa) reported 56 minutes ago
@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.
noah (@noahsolomon) reported 57 minutes ago
@hiiinternet @SlackHQ It’s a big problem actually
BitcoinCPA (@bitcpa) reported 60 minutes ago
I am never going to use @SlackHQ again unless they fix the issue on the iPhone app where it doesn’t auto scroll to the latest message in a thread. You have to scroll down for 2 mins to get to the latest message. Not working for me on OpenClaw. Like if you know what I mean.
