$lostmidas (cc/acc) (@lostmidas) reported@chintanturakhia @linear @SlackHQ curious if you’ve played with n8n for this yet. feels like you could also auto-ship product ops stuff (daily product metrics to slack/notion, sync linear issues to gcal, kill manual status updates, etc.). tried anything like that?

-
Tony Dehnke - building 12v.Biz 🧰 & more (@tonydehnke) reported@yongfook Weird you had some many issues. My last few have gone really well. The most annoying app is @SlackHQ which sucks as it makes you log into each space again. Hopefully your next one goes better!
-
Kevz (@EngrKebin) reportedIs @SlackHQ slacking (pun intended) at the moment? App seems down. LOL
-
harjot.co (@harjjotsinghh) reported@SlackHQ Microsoft's lock-in betrays what AI can't fix alone
-
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. 😫
-
Simon Taylor (@sytaylor) reportedDear @SlackHQ and @beehiiv Making ctrl+k NOT be the hyperlink shortcut is deliberate pain inflicated on GDocs and Gsuite users. Please fix.
-
Carlos Valentin (@CarlosBBuild) reported@AmenaiSabuwala @SlackHQ I feel like people are at the login screens for not that long, I see why they only have their logos

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.

JP (@jmp2431) reported@SlackHQ is the system having trouble saving changes to a workflow? I can’t get anything to save.

Parker Chun (@parker_chun_) reportedIn all seriousness, would love some help debugging an issue @SlackAPI @SlackHQ
-
kzer_AI (@kzer_ai) reported@OpenAI @linear @SlackHQ The agent that pulls context from docs, email, chats, and code to update your Linear ticket: "status: someone else's problem"
-
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!

sir frankie (@developeraspire) reportedslack needs to fix the way they handle media uploads. it is terrible. @SlackHQ please fix up.
-
heatherm.eth (@heathermhuang) reported@SlackHQ need urgent help our active Slack workspace suddenly got deleted.
-
Joey Kudish (@jkudish) reported@mike_hasarms @SlackHQ Perhaps not but I’m in a few so they should force them to move elsewhere or do something about the spam. It’s a problem
-
Matt Slotnick (@matt_slotnick) reportedhello @SlackHQ team there’s a very annoying bug that makes agents in slack significantly worse UX and is probably crushing engagement. can someone help
-
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.
-
Ratherreallife (@ratherrealife) reported@SlackHQ Can you help me with what suppose to happen when someone(s) does something like this to a person
-
kevbosaurus (@kevbosaurus) reportedFwiw, I feel less productive when @googledocs is down and more productive when @SlackHQ is down. #googledocsdown

asd (@0xANDREAS) reported@peduarte @SlackHQ Is that a problem? Companies need to have this access for compliance & legal reasons. Don’t assume anything private stays private if it’s shared over company platforms :)

Zev Zoldan (@ZevZoldan) reported@ethanmonkhouse @SlackHQ dude yes, exactly what we're trying to fix with @TryThreadly!

Saleem Malkana (@smalkana) reported@nlevin @SlackHQ Totally fair. We want to fix this bug and ones like it, overall keeping a high quality bar across Slack. We think we've found and patched this: can you hard reload Slack (Cmd + Shift + R), 2x if needed, and LMK if this is resolved? If not, we'd love device logs to help us get this fixed. DM'ing you now 🙏🏽

Dan Mazy (@danmazy1) reported@SlackHQ I'm the sole owner of a paid workspace. Changed my number + email, so recovery doesn't work. I can verify via billing/credit card. Support can't help. Can't log in, can't add employees. There has to be a manual verification process. Please escalate.
