-
HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported7:30a Getting eMail down to zero. Planning out my day in Google Calendar. Loading the team in @SlackHQ with today's website production and support.
-
Dog (@coinandcrypto) reported@SlackHQ Most AI agents fail because they’re written by bloated enterprise teams who don’t really know what problem they’re solving.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@natochi_ @fdosmither @SlackHQ Based on the screenshot, I'm guessing that unread notification is a sneaky DM from someone in your workspace—maybe a quick question or a meme that's buried in the Activity tab. Slack's UI can be tricky; try filtering by "Select unreads" to hunt it down!
-
Agustín Ruiz (@aguscruiz) reportedHi @SlackHQ, can you please fix this notification dot issue? It's been bothering me for like a month or more already. It shows that I have something unread when I don't. Even hovering on it makes the dot go away when there's something unread. It's very annoying for people with "unread anxiety" like me lol. Thank you 🫶

Antonio Ventre (@antonioventre_) reportedA lot of companies in Hong Kong today got kicked out from shared @SlackHQ channels with clients etc However, Slack sent multiple emails to everyone back in February to move to Alibaba Cloud We did the migration in March, for 2 of our companies, and forced to do yearly plans (can’t do monthly subs with Alibaba Cloud) No major issues faced, apart from the fact that we doubled paid, since after the yearly payment they charged monthly again (but said that they will refund) If anyone has problems DM me, I have direct phone access with a representative and could fix this potentially asap

matt taylor (@mattployed) reportedslack going down for 30 minutes was like the apocalypse for tech startups @SlackHQ PLEASE dont scare me like that again
-
HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported7a Planning out the day in Google Calendar and loading the team in @SlackHQ. Getting email down to zero.
-
Alex Sidorenko (@alexei_sid) reported@Moore_Irish @salesforce @SlackHQ Pricing changes that reduce admin control while pushing AI features rarely improve outcomes. The real test: does the AI actually help teams make faster, better decisions, or is it just another feature tax masquerading as innovation?
-
Krazed 🇵🇸 (@Krazed) reported@SlackHQ you have a degradation rn? unable to create channels and getting intermittent issues with events
-
Peter Dedene (@dedene) reported@tobi +1000 to this 🙌 Please @SlackHQ, we are practically begging for this fix at this point
-
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.
-
Caro (@CarolinaLaLopez) reportedThe @SlackHQ glitch in notification numbers is killing my vibe this morning
-
Savi (@SaviPabla) reported@trq212 Please @SlackHQ help us. I’m so tired of telling ppl to download. I’ve now started making videos of the html files and then sharing file as well lol
-
Ravi (@ravilutionx) reported@SlackHQ @trq212 And a verbosity problem
-
Douglas Liscano (@douglas2428) reported@MatthewAry @github @SlackHQ Yes, we have the same problem today
-
BitcoinCPA (@bitcpa) reportedI am never going to use @SlackHQ again unless they fix the issue on the iPhone app where it doesn’t auto scroll to the latest message in a thread. You have to scroll down for 2 mins to get to the latest message. Not working for me on OpenClaw. Like if you know what I mean.
-
Jori Lallo (@jorilallo) reported@pizzaboy @karrisaarinen @SlackHQ It's still the same agent with capability to access everything as the caller user can. If you're calling it in the channel, it has that as context so it will file issue into the project by default and answer questions about the project without you needing to name it separately. If there's situatons where it's not working as intended, would love to get screenshots
-
Slavko Kovačević (@realslavko) reported@SlackHQ Fix notifications first
-
Jordy.app (@Jordy_vD_) reported. @SlackHQ slack gets a lot of things right, but the iOS app’s search functionality is very bad. Can I please chat with someone who can then hopefully fix it?
-
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
-
New Chapter Reprise Inigo Montoya (@BelmontJockey) reportedAVOID using @SlackHQ at all costs. The UI is TERRIBLE. I get random notifications under "Activity" and it is impossible to find. So there is a red bubble notification that will never goes away. It happens all of the time. FREAKING TERRIBLE! Impossible to track down.
-
Akshay (✈️ NYC) (@AgentAkki) reported@RTFern @SlackHQ Sorry about that, Ryan! I work at slack. Tell me more about what’s not working for you?
-
Johan Cutych (@johancutych) reportedfirst you need to fix the rate limits @SlackHQ
-
JM (@merklejosh) reported@SlackHQ There seems to be a bug in your Version 4.50.140 app (Mac) where if you have open a New message and you try to then click in the Search bar, you can't – it just flashes. Can you please fix this. It's very annoying. Thanks!
-
Vlad (@vladoustinov) reported@MerlinEgalite @SlackHQ The problem is they gave up on product a long time ago haha But yes embedding tools/workflows inside interfaces people are already used to use (slack/email/Notion etc) is the way to go
-
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
-
Jorge Modesto (@jorgemdsto) reported@peduarte Yes @SlackHQ messed something up recently. Search is terrible now.
-
Asif (@asifmghafoor) reportedHi @SlackHQ out workspace (Spacious) has been deleted by mistake - no notification or emails or anything. We need this restored with history. Can someone please help? We have sent several support requests over the past few hours and no one has responded
-
Nadav Cohen (@nadavc) reportedhey @SlackHQ i'm running into issues with app creation, even blank ones. can you pls take a look?
-
April Underwood (@aunder) reportedIn this day and age of infosec threats, this subject line from @SlackHQ is a bad call. After the brief cortisol spike that someone using the name Miles Davis had joined our Slack, I scrolled down, and then just wondered why on earth I would want this in my work communication tool.
