Yariv Ashkenazy (@YarivAshkenazy) reported@AltKek420 @SlackHQ @salesforce Agreed! Is your company building software? I'm building a work messaging app purpose-built for software builders (engineers, ***, designers). Would you be open to a quick chat (or can I send a DM) about the problems you currently have with Slack?

Precious (@Premauj) reportedAm I the only one @SlackHQ has been giving wrong notification counts??? Huddles you've left are still showing; new messages don't display on time. Especially on Mac. You people should fix up o

Kleptocracy (@lfdoyfydoydtd) reported@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?

-
Zev Zoldan (@ZevZoldan) reportedHot take for the AI founders knocking @SlackHQ: Slack doesn’t have a “communication problem.” Teams do. Most “ignored messages” aren’t about noise, attention spans, or channel chaos. It’s because Slack messages have zero structure. No timing. No follow-through. No visibility. Just text thrown into the void and a prayer. The second you add structure — forms, confirmations, simple logic — everything changes. People actually respond. Leaders stop guessing. Teams stop resending the same message 12 times. Slack doesn’t need fewer messages. It needs smarter ones. That’s what we’re building with @TryThreadly.

Dan Mazy (@danmazy1) reported@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.
