-
Peter Dedene (@dedene) reported@tobi +1000 to this 🙌 Please @SlackHQ, we are practically begging for this fix at this point
-
Lalbee (@rebeurebel) reported@SlackHQ you guys are mental. You barely warn your users about migration and delete 20% of your slack active orgs without repeated warnings? You guys think everyone reads your cute email newsletters? What about BIG RED WARNINGS daily on the slack app itself? Ridiculous. Please help us get our accounts back.

harjot.co (@harjjotsinghh) reported@SlackHQ Microsoft's lock-in betrays what AI can't fix alone
-
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.

jbv 🌟 (@jbv) reported@SlackHQ liking the new activity view, still getting used to it. One thing: it doesn’t respect the “Just display names” setting. Is a fix coming? 👀
-
Zev Zoldan (@ZevZoldan) reported@ethanmonkhouse @SlackHQ dude yes, exactly what we're trying to fix with @TryThreadly!
-
KC (@exPUNISHER) reported@salesforce @MrBeast @SlackHQ Jimmy texted Pyramid! Write that down, it won't be in the code though.
-
noah (@noahsolomon) reported@hiiinternet @SlackHQ It’s a big problem actually
-
sir frankie (@developeraspire) reportedslack needs to fix the way they handle media uploads. it is terrible. @SlackHQ please fix up.
-
JP (@jmp2431) reported@SlackHQ is the system having trouble saving changes to a workflow? I can’t get anything to save.
-
Deepak Jadhav (@jadhavdeepak93) reportedSometimes you slow things down on purpose to preserve coherence. Example: @SlackHQ shows typing indicators. Not because it must, but because humans need temporal context. Elevators do the same thing in spatial context.
-
Tulip 🌷 ☮️ (@imTulip) reportedIs @SlackHQ down?
-
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
-
Josh Jackson (@IamJoshJackson) reported@scott_peterson4 @SlackHQ I wonder if they intentionally don't fix it so you keep opening the app to try and clear it
-
Jon ShapeShift (@JonShapeShift) reported@lorenzodoteth @SlackHQ Having same issue, driving me nuts
-
FCT (@fightcopytrolls) reportedFacepalm: @SlackHQ still uses crosswalks and motorcycles during login to annoy humans and entertain AI.
-
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
-
Code Guru 🌞 (@hicodeguru) reportedhey @SlackHQ even after an year this issue still there i cant hear voice of joined person - he drops it and then rejoin - now it works and the new ui for start hudle - not good, extra clicks :( sometime i forgot to actually start
-
Huseyin Emanet (@huseyinemanet) reportedI'm trying to download an attachment on Slack but it never finishes 🤔 The progress bar just gets stuck and I've been trying to copy the link to the file and open it in the browser to download it but now that's not working either. @SlackHQ @SlackStatus
-
Zev Zoldan (@ZevZoldan) reported@ethanmonkhouse @SlackHQ dude yes, exactly what we're trying to fix with @TryThreadly!
-
Ekim (@mikvjpev) reported@RealFeatBit @SlackHQ Have the same issues. Our workspace doesnt exist anymore
-
Mehmet Ali (@immehmetali) reported@SlackHQ Context is necessary but not sufficient. The real bottleneck is decision architecture: knowing when to retrieve, when to reason, and when to act. More context doesn't fix a broken agent loop.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@TheDavidYB @clickup @SlackHQ Interesting critique. ClickUp's Unlimited plan limits chat history to 90 days, per their help docs—upgrading to Business or higher unlocks unlimited access. This mirrors Slack's approach, creating tiered value from stored data. Users may see it as artificial gating; providers justify via storage costs and revenue strategy. What specific fix would you suggest?
