Chinthan B M (@mrchintz) reported@SlackHQ Down?
-
Jatin Saini (@AskJatinSaini) reported@aouabch Most teams don’t fail to scale because of bad tools. They fail because every new tool hides the same old inefficiency. IMO @clickup and @SlackHQ aren’t the problem. It’s the illusion that organisation = progress.
-
Taksh Shah (@takshshahh) reportedSomeone 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
-
Cate @ツ Supercut + Tiramisù (@cate_anti) reported@SlackHQ where’s the little “Polish” button to fix my grammar before I hit send?
-
Abhishek (@abhi__katiyar) reported@peduarte @SlackHQ Mental model to help people make right choices “all your communication will become public record if your company gets subpoenaed”
-
37chairs (@37chairs) reported@jarredsumner @SlackHQ please no. slack absolutely does not need even one more feature. I realize this is more of a fix than a feature but pencils down, walk away, stop touching it.

-
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?

Alain テスラ ヘルシオ (@aquamarineB788) reported@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.
-
JustSteveKing (@JustSteveKing) reported@heyandras @SlackHQ I had the same issue, but it's like $3.50 or something per user a month - so for just me it was easier to pay it
-
Jon ShapeShift (@JonShapeShift) reported@lorenzodoteth @SlackHQ Having same issue, driving me nuts
-
kuldip (@kuldip) reported@SalesCloud @SlackHQ Sales cycles move fast but CPQ misconfigurations move faster. Seen too many reps waste hours on pricing errors while deals slip away.
-
Rushabh Shah (@beingrushabh07) reportedHi @SlackHQ, I’ve been unable to launch or load the iOS app for the past few hours. I have already tried logging out and back in, as well as a full uninstall and reinstall, but the issue persists. This is significantly impacting my work could you please look into this?
-
josh (@JoshCaughtFire) reported@peduarte @SlackHQ I like how the proposed community note is like ‘no they can’t’ then you read the slack docs and there is a self service export tool for org owners
-
Hagman (@KaiAchak) reported@SlackHQ Oi are you guys crashing? Your app on windows is hella slow. Edit messages not working and reactions disappear/not working properly 🙉
-
Sharon Akinyi (@SharonA01558624) reported@SlackHQ We are having issues with sending or receiving messages on Slack. We have raised a ticket but no response from the Support team. It's been more than 48hours. We start work in a couple of hours!!

-
Carlos Valentin (@CarlosBBuild) reported@AmenaiSabuwala @SlackHQ I feel like people are at the login screens for not that long, I see why they only have their logos
-
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

benja (@benjaminakar) reportedplease fix @SlackHQ 🫶🏼
-
Jp 🦝 (@jpvalery) reportedFirst world problem but the fact that @SlackHQ uses cmd+shift+c instead of cmd+e for `code` formatting is a daily pain
-
Stellar Material Solutions (@StellarMSllc) reportedIt sucks that @SlackHQ doesn’t support Apple Shortcuts. I’m not sure that that approach will slow down the development of personalized bots outside of Salesforce control.
-
Bigshortbetson (@bigRshortRbetR) reported@bitfalls @SlackHQ after clicking reset password link sent to phone number, enter the 15 character-long password, including UPPERCASE, lowercase and two special characters. Then confirm with the activation code sent to the same phone number. What is your problem ? :D
-
Tarwin Stroh-Spijer (@tarwin) reported@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.
-
Shiva Kavindpadi (@kavindpadi) reportedAnyone using @clawdbot with @SlackHQ? The bot is often missing the context of the thread.. don't think it is clawdbots issue but more of slack thread notification.. though asked it to read additional thread messages, it is still hit and miss without sacrificing tokens!
-
Fabian (@ffabbianr) reported@AmenaiSabuwala @SlackHQ This must be ragebait, right? You redesigned a Splash Screen into a login screen, those are separate things.
-
Turki (@TurkiiHD) reported@0xWenMoon @SlackHQ pay 100k to get greeted late premium latency service at its finest

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.
