-
heatherm.eth (@heathermhuang) reported@SlackHQ need urgent help our active Slack workspace suddenly got deleted.
-
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? 🤔
-
$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?
-
Jon ShapeShift (@JonShapeShift) reported@lorenzodoteth @SlackHQ Having same issue, driving me nuts
-
JIM EVANS (@JEVANSCPM) reported@SlackHQ @slack_community not sure what happened and on who’s side, but after your recent update I’m having major issues opening your program. (Mac OS)
-
Tokyo (@ahmedtokyo) reportedThere’s this huge bug in slack where if you click on a draft message from your drafts on iPhone, Slack just fully deletes the draft message and opens an empty composer. This made me lose a lot of work. @SlackHQ you can fix this with claude. Just paste this tweet there.
-
rushikesh (@ivadapav) reported@SlackHQ down. What's next?
-
Disky.eth (@OxDisky) reportedI just learned you can basically see all @SlackHQ profile images publicly without the need for authenticated request. Isn't this both a #privacy issue and security issue? I mean, you can basically fetch them from ca.slack-edge dot com. #slack #privacyprotection
-
KC (@exPUNISHER) reported@salesforce @MrBeast @SlackHQ Jimmy texted Pyramid! Write that down, it won't be in the code though.
-
Santosh | Google Ads Rescue for Ecom (@ScaleomX) reported@SlackHQ makes me miss a lot of messages, No notification even if I am marked @ Something is broken when you use it on both computer and phone. Anyone else facing this?
-
Lalbee (@rebeurebel) reported@SlackHQ you guys are mental. You barely warn your users about migration and delete 20% of your slack active orgs without repeated warnings? You guys think everyone reads your cute email newsletters? What about BIG RED WARNINGS daily on the slack app itself? Ridiculous. Please help us get our accounts back.
-
Kevin Lewis (@objectuser) reported@thdxr @SlackHQ @Benioff Slack is so terrible
-
Openfort (@openfort_hq) reported@aseemk @SlackHQ hey can you send us a dm and we'll try to fix this>
-
Akshay (✈️ NYC) (@AgentAkki) reported@RTFern @SlackHQ Sorry about that, Ryan! I work at slack. Tell me more about what’s not working for you?
-
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
-
duh (@qudnesa) reported@SlackHQ @question_base why not fix your own agent first?
-
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 🫶
-
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.
-
Taksh Shah (@takshshahh) reportedSomeone at @SlackHQ needs to fix how they deal with markdown. Its markdown but not really? Pasting stuff from elsewhere sometimes preserves formatting, sometimes doesnt? I had to do workarounds when working with API, but pasting content from claude in the messagebox is terrible
-
Troy Ruediger (@troy_ruediger) reported@Benioff @scottastevenson @SlackHQ That’s so much easier than seeing business owners try and argue for their products usability. Could very well be user error but irrelevant after this approach. Both sides on the same team working to make things better. Very smooth MB.
-
Brandon (@brandooonndd) reported🚨 @cursor_ai just dropped Automations always-on AI coding agents that run 24/7, triggered by GitHub PRs, Slack messages, or timers. They handle security audits, auto-approve low-risk PRs & fix bugs overnight. The future of dev just shipped. @github @SlackHQ #AIcoding #Cursor
-
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.
-
Liger Wealth Management (@kanute) reportedThinking about ditching @SlackHQ just because unfurling sucks so bad. Seems like this has been an issue for years. Spent way too much time trying to get reliable unfurling when my @openclaw bot posts.
-
Corey Quinn (@QuinnyPig) reported@samlambert @joshmgross It’s almost impossible to mention a bug in Slack and get anyone at @SlackHQ to fix it.
-
Abhishek (@abhi__katiyar) reported@peduarte @SlackHQ Mental model to help people make right choices “all your communication will become public record if your company gets subpoenaed”
-
Code Guru 🌞 (@hicodeguru) reportedhey @SlackHQ even after an year this issue still there i cant hear voice of joined person - he drops it and then rejoin - now it works and the new ui for start hudle - not good, extra clicks :( sometime i forgot to actually start
-
Shantanu (@shantanughosh) reported@SlackHQ is the new Webex. Absolutely terrible performance and difficult to use on cellular networks in India now. I was so excited when the company I joined used Zoom instead on that terrible terrible productivity waste that was Webex. That’s slack now.
-
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.
-
AK (@MohschinoKhan) reported@daveamsterdam20 @SlackHQ Same issue here wtf is going on!! @SlackHQ
-
Sharon Akinyi (@SharonA01558624) reported@SlackHQ We are having issues with sending or receiving messages on Slack. We have raised a ticket but no response from the Support team. It's been more than 48hours. We start work in a couple of hours!!
