-
Yariv Ashkenazy (@YarivAshkenazy) reported@Premauj @SlackHQ Classic Slack... Always buggy. Are you or your company building software? I'm building a work messaging app purpose-built for software-building companies. Would love a quick chat about the problems you or your company have with Slack!

Chinthan B M (@mrchintz) reported@SlackHQ Down?
-
rushikesh (@ivadapav) reported@SlackHQ down. What's next?
-
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.
-
Markus Eisele (@myfear) reportedHey @SlackHQ are you folks aware of some “image not loading” issues in some particular workspaces?
-
HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported7a Loading the team up in @SlackHQ, getting email down to zero.
-
F. Fernández-Beltrán (@franferbel) reportedHey @SlackHQ — it’s been 3 days waiting for a response from your Help Center. For a platform that sells efficiency and seamless communication, this feels… ironic. Is this really the standard for customer support? 🤔
-
jericho (@attritionorg) reportedpeople in my circles are shutting down their entire servers over your new policies that haven't landed, but it's this bullshit that makes me want to find ANY other platform than yours. except @SlackHQ of course. even though they have improved while you haven't.
-
Barlow Buddy Barrier (@barrier_buddy) reported@SlackHQ @salesforce I literally have slack and use slack or all the time and it has no clue what this is or how to help
-
benja (@benjaminakar) reportedplease fix @SlackHQ 🫶🏼
-
kingoftheworld (@4kingtheworld) reported@antonioventre_ @SlackHQ Hey man, I’d really appreciate help getting Slack restored. I’ve got a company with 40 employees and it’s catastrophic man anything you can do to help Tried dming but it didn’t work
-
Jeremy Levine (@JerLevine) reported@SlackHQ you guys have a gnarly bug and flow issue on iPad that makes the catchup feature (my fav ever) almost unusable. When I forward a message the app often crashes. If it doesn’t it moves me to the new chat (where I forwarded) but drops all the navigation so there’s no ability to get anywhere. I need to force quit and then restart slack to be able to navigate anywhere. Please fix! Can’t live without the catch up feature!
-
Contextrix (@ContextrixAi) reported@ManusAI @SlackHQ This solves a real problem for growing teams. Slack becomes a black hole of information where someone asked the same question six months ago but nobody can find it. Having that knowledge surface automatically when you need it saves a lot of repeated conversations.
-
Ryan Petersen (@typesfast) reported@Benioff When I copy numbered lists from ChatGPT into @SlackHQ, you always converts every number into a 1. Very annoying, please fix.
-
Matthew Cassinelli (@mattcassinelli) reported@samhenrigold So good. I wish this was accounted for when opening Spotlight from the Home Screen so they were distinct, that’s the only reason I don’t unless I have two sets (which do account for each other). Also lol @ @SlackHQ having an old Siri Shortcut donation whose image is broken
-
Matthew Weissman (@MATTtheWEISS) reported@cjhuts @claudeai @SlackHQ Any service related ai platforms you would consider for your agency ? Or any ai platforms in general?
-
Kevin (@kevin0connell) reported@SlackHQ I can also replicate this problem
-
Oliver Pitsch (@ot) reported@AmenaiSabuwala @SlackHQ If Slack would not need the Splash Loader they would surely remove it and dive directly to login. Please understand the basic, before posting such stuff. 😫
-
HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported7a Getting eMail down to zero, loading the team of today's tasks and support in @SlackHQ.
-
Sen Yang (@undefined_blog) reportedour slack workspace has been deleted for no reason, no nofication nor verification, please reach out and help @SlackHQ
-
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.

Eric Novak (@EricRNovak) reported@SlackHQ is down fyi @downrightnow

Zach Bresler (@bresler_zach) reportedWhy has Apple changed the Mac screenshot file type… @claudeai, @ChatGPTapp and @SlackHQ are now giving issues with the HEIC format Please change it back to png
-
Cate @ツ Supercut + Tiramisù (@cate_anti) reported@SlackHQ where’s the little “Polish” button to fix my grammar before I hit send?
-
Jon "JonnyRingo" Williams ⓐ (@JonnyRingo711) reportedPretty please @SlackHQ stop making me find the channel again when I reopen the mobile app. I love you but it's terrible UX to have to find the channel everytime close my phone.
-
Robert Balicki (👀 @IsographLabs) (@StatisticsFTW) reported@SlackHQ just absolutely broken on web today?
-
harjot.co (@harjjotsinghh) reported@SlackHQ Microsoft's lock-in betrays what AI can't fix alone
-
Azmy (@AzmyBlog) reported@lennysan @SlackHQ @aunder The strobe light thing is so real. The person presenting has been inside the problem for weeks. The reviewer walks in cold. And it's not really a flaw in the exec ..... it's just structural. That gap exists at every level in every review setting. The actual skill is learning to rebuild context for the reviewer quickly, instead of assuming they're already there with you.
