HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported6:30a Quickly getting eMail down to zero, loading the team up in @SlackHQ before a full morning of appointments.
-
Assaf Kipnis (@Kipnis_a) reportedClaude is the best corporate CYA buddy I used to have full CYA files with records of messages, emails and things I did - I was terrible at keeping those and people took advantage of that. With Claude and @meetgranola - I have canonical record of all conversations, @SlackHQ messages, emails, canonical decisions - everything Oh, you say I didnt do something? I didnt respond? Here come the receipts
-
ImagineArt (@ImagineArt_X) reported@SlackHQ @SlackHQ cute, but can you fix the "copying emojis from slack to somewhere else please"
-
Teo Vanyo Adiputra (@teostealth) reported@karrisaarinen @SlackHQ The handoff from Slack discussion to actual tracked issue is where most teams drop the ball - keeping that loop tight is harder than it sounds.
-
Peter Dedene (@dedene) reported@tobi +1000 to this π Please @SlackHQ, we are practically begging for this fix at this point
-
Kit Langton (@kitlangton) reported@ferran9908 @SlackHQ Alas, this one is broken on desktop π Every time a user responds, it disappears.
-
Paul Thornton (@Fusspawn) reported@SlackHQ @dorukkavcioglu I miss the old glitch game, had fun with some of your old founders in that :(
-
Dhruv (@dhruv2038) reportedIs @SlackHQ broken today - I am using Focus mode - seems like the emoticons are breaking.
-
Akshay (βοΈ NYC) (@AgentAkki) reported@RobSwish @SlackHQ Does restarting the app fix it?
-
HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported8:30a Back at my desk, loading the team up in @SlackHQ with today's assignment, getting eMail down to zero.
-
matt taylor (@mattployed) reportedslack going down for 30 minutes was like the apocalypse for tech startups @SlackHQ PLEASE dont scare me like that again
-
Douglas Liscano (@douglas2428) reported@MatthewAry @github @SlackHQ Yes, we have the same problem today
-
Otto Hilska (@mutru) reported@SlackHQ The new Activity view is an amazing improvement. One thing that would make it better: the same thread can appear multiple times (for example the original post and a reply). It would help to allow deduplicating threads from the list.
-
Sammie (@nexgencoded) reported@SlackHQ really said what if your coworker wasn't annoying enough?? now you can add an AI coding agent to the group chat @Claude fix this 30 seconds later claude: PR opened greg from accounting: why is there a PR claude: I have no idea who Greg is....
-
Theodor Marcu (@theodormarcu) reportedPutting an agent in Slack creates a very different UX problem: it has to know when to shut up We spent a lot of time tuning when Devin should speak, stay quiet, or move work into a separate channel. Devin was the first agent to support Slack natively, so it was great to bring 2 years of those learnings to @SlackHQ for the Slack Code launch.
-
Riley Read-Only (@HotForMoot) reportedCmon @SlackHQ help the tfr
-
mr.tipton (@mrtipton_art) reported@pizzaboy @SlackHQ Nah, Iβm that guy. Gotta fix it
-
Ajith Joseph (@theajithjoseph) reportedFriday thought. @stewart raised $17 million to build a video game. 3 years of work! 40 people. And almost nobody wanted to play it. He shut it down in December 2012 and laid off most of the team. The only thing left standing was the chat tool they'd built to talk to each other while working on it. That tool was @SlackHQ. @salesforce bought it for $27.7 billion. The thing you're building in the quiet stretch isn't wasted. Sometimes it turns out to be the actual product.
-
Giuseppe Skyline (@giskyexplorer) reported@gustaf @SlackHQ Notifications are the bandaid for broken reliability. WhatsApp stays quiet because it works.
-
Q (@quionie) reported@thdxr @SlackHQ ohhh iβm so down for this because this would be MUCH better lol
-
Ari Dehkordi (@arashdehkordiHQ) reported@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?
-
The Mishmash Cat (@TheMishmashCat) reported[1/5] Your #brain cannot multithread. When you switch from writing code to answering a @SlackHQ ping, your prefrontal cortex doesn't execute a clean parallel jump - it triggers an expensive, messy tear-down and rebuild process. You are burning raw compute.
-
HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported6a Getting eMail down to zero, loading up the team is @SlackHQ. Planning the day, so I can work the plan.
-

-
a Nate da Novenchi πποΈ (@NATE9169) reported@adjohu @SlackHQ The crypto community loves the idea of Wild Static, do you have a solana wallet we can donate to to help fund you vision?
-
Pavel Zagorodnikh (@pavzagor) reported@SlackHQ you should really fix your reactions search its such a pain to remember the names of emojis. Look at what folks at @raycast and @telegram do π
