  @SteveTurczyn Usually I would be the first person to offer some helpful advice to a mate but we may have to wait for @SlackHQ to resolve this problem because I haven't got a clue what you're talking about.

  @DaveMichels @SlackHQ Have a friend at Tableau and they said that acquisition has been terrible. These two cultures can’t be more different.

  @SlackHQ @benkilgore I am having the problem though, that the channel I want to keep private, is the main channel, which new members are automatically invited to anyway. So even if I create a new private channel, they can still see the history of the main channel too? Thankyou

  @SlackHQ love the huddle but audio is quite choppy. Known problem or am I alone?

  @SlackHQ Slack sucks. It encourages distraction as it promotes being in a contest to not be behind on the thread. It’s basically an ADD app. Terrible.

  @SlackHQ how do i stop the constant pop-up "An update is ready to install. Slack is trying to add a new helper tool" it happens every day, usually multiple times a day. help?

  Is anyone else having trouble with @SlackHQ @SlackStatus on a PC?

  Brian Gumm (@bgumm) reported 11 minutes ago

  Sent @SlackHQ a really low-impact support request and thought "Well, I'll hear back from them in about a month." Response in like 15 mins, super quick responses w/ a few follow-ups. Issue resolved. For a mongo company, that is SUPER impressive CS

  @treyhunner @SlackHQ Hehe I've had the same exact issue

  Hi @SlackHQ When you put the user sidebar back, can you fix the massive memory leak as well please? The app is impressively grabbing more memory than even Chrome.

  Not sure by this new Huddle feature on @SlackHQ. Seems bit pointless. Started one on android app too and the "Leave" button doesn't seem to work. Anyone know how to fix?

  @DanMillerDev @SlackHQ @discord And then charges a ridiculous $100 per year for nitro… it’s a chat service. $100 is too much.

  Chris Blyth (@BlythMeister) reported 26 minutes ago

  @SlackHQ The issue is more that if you have an all day event of "working elsewhere" Any meeting event during the day will NOT update your status (because the all day event takes precedence as it started 1st) It basically means, when working from home, my meetings never show.

  @btaylor @SlackHQ Great news.. But @marketingcloud is DOWN again..

  During the event our hack-ops team regularly deployed event-wide or cluster-wide updates, extra packages or just scaled up limits to compute fleets - usually within a few minutes of being asked in one of the many @slackHQ channels we used as virtual help desks. 21/23

  James Rawlings (@JamesRawlings_) reported 32 minutes ago

  @SlackHQ Yes thank you! Very prompt response. For those still having issues, the devs have deployed a fix and suggest doing Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + R to reload the app.

  It’s so weird and wonderful how @SlackHQ Huddles are exactly the same as a call, but also completely different. I feel like they have a chance to really help us work so much better remotely.

  @SlackHQ You can't fix stupid.

  @SlackHQ @anderskleve Can you please add F11 as a toggle? This is pretty standard across many applications. I just ran into this gentleman's same issue today where I didn't realize Ctrl+Shift+F got me "stuck" in fullscreen.

  Marco Salsiccia (@marconiusiii) reported 39 minutes ago

  @SlackHQ Thanks, links seem to finally be working, but you still severely broke the usability of the iOS app now with the duplicate message elements appearing under each message. That issue is now *much* more pressing and I've already sent you a screen recording of how bad this is.

  carolee schuck (@carolee_schuck) reported 51 minutes ago

  @SlackHQ Both huddles involved screensharing and I didn't notice video problems on either.

  @SlackHQ I'm not down with this company at all. I interviewed with them, they told me to expect an offer w/in 2 days and then just completely ghosted me. No answer to my calls, no answer to my emails. It was bizarre. Don't care if I didn't get the job but you should at least respond.

• 
  Thomas Reed (@thomasareed) reported 52 minutes ago

  @SlackHQ This is in the Mac app. But text styling has been broken for a while now, and I wish we could go back to using _ and * without Slack trying to be smart about interpreting those (and failing).

  @MURAL @SlackHQ I'm curious what the use case for the feature is. What problem is it solving?

  @SlackHQ Let's fix the tax loop holes so Jeff Can pay taxes . Delaware the state Needs to be put out of the LLC and Corporate business. Long ago they Created it so rich could not pay tax. Senators need to fix this this week. Jeff would love to pay tax so fix the Broken system.

  Just spent the last 2hrs using @SlackHQ's new huddle feature to pair programs & it was a nice experience! Aside from some screen sharing performance issue (love the pen btw.), the audio-only aspect of it made the 2 hrs less exhausting. No "huddle fatigue" (™ by @ovejka) so far.

  Back in the day when you wanted to end a conference call you just said "OK" and that usually wound things down. To end a never-ending @SlackHQ conversation you give a thumbs up.

  Olly Dixon (@OllyDixxx) reported 59 minutes ago

  @SlackHQ Thanks; but have some good news for your developers; you can a actually set the badge number silently to whatever you want now. You sent a ‘data’ notification with the number in it. That would fix this annoying bug and allow us to use Slack again. :-) messenger does this.

  @barrd @SlackHQ I wish they'd sort out their 'reply in a thread' issue tho. We end up with new discussions for every reply because that's the default. Drives me nuts.
