    @SlackHQ @freddyandresh hey guys maybe don't change your status page to say "no issues" with connections or logins when I am *sure* I'm not the only one who still can't get in despite multiple restarts

  • NotionHQ
    Notion (@NotionHQ) reported

    @sandeeptodi @utekkare @SlackHQ Definitely not our usual standard, but we totally understand that there is nothing more frustrating than inconsistent service. Aside from the current issue, we are working on offline support, so we'd appreciate if you stuck around and put those credits to good use!

  • WilSchobeiri
    Wilfried Schobeiri (@WilSchobeiri) reported

    Most failures are created by change. Lots of change, forced to happen all at once leads to in increased probability of failure. Current @SlackHQ outage caused by lifting code freeze?

  • jameslynnmiller
    James L. Miller (@jameslynnmiller) reported

    The @SlackHQ outage this morning felt like a snow delay on the first day back from Christmas vacation as a kid.

    Today, @SlackHQ down. Tomorrow, kids at home from school. Hoping Wednesday will be much more positive with a plague of locusts or the heat death of the universe. 🤞

    @SlackHQ Please help! My Windows Slack app is stuck on a Twitter home screen and there is no option to return to the regular interface even though Slack is back up and running. I can't uninstall and reinstall because I am not an admin on my company's device

    @kpfefferle @SlackHQ The ol’ Javascript rounding error.

    When people reach out to @SlackHQ for outage updates they should just reply with “I am out of office until Jan 5th on holidays. While I am away please use carrier pigeons”

  • curtdubya

    TBH I'm not upset about @slackHQ going down on the first business day of the year. People who think this is a bad start to 2021 have backwards prioroties.

  • priyeshugarg

    @kuizinas @SlackHQ Who said they use Slack when @SlackHQ does not go down?

  • ArminsWorld
    Armin Faraji (@ArminsWorld) reported

    First @SlackHQ was down and now @NotionHQ. I assume they're using the same cloud provider but what a way to start the new year

  • GRMule
    Chris Baker (@GRMule) reported

    @SlackHQ I know how stressed I feel when I have problems with a Dev deploy for UAT testing a sprint release... Slack has **** servers down with Associated Press articles talking about it, I can only imagine the pants being pooped. Deep breath, hope the engineer who cracks it gets a beer!

    @sfleetucker @SlackHQ A well-documented system would provide information about and insight into potential issues. But probably “agile,” so documentation is verboten.

  • lewkoo
    Levko Ivanchuk (@lewkoo) reported

    @SlackHQ went down today, but for a while their API was still running just fine. Whip up some quick Flask code and fire up a message to the general channel letting them know my email. Fatal error since they could not read it but now everyone’s asking how did that message appeared

    What do Slack engineers use to communicate with each other when @SlackHQ goes down? 🤔
