@slackhq I can't create a user group called "marketing" or "dev" if we have a channel by that name already? That seems unlogical, so I assume you deem that to be a technological limitation on your end. Any fix coming? #poor #ux #missedopportunity

@SlackHQ I'm trying to create a channel in our Slack workspace, it says "That name is already taken by a channel, username or user group". The name is not, in fact, taken by a channel, username or user group. How do I fix this please?

@SlackHQ @robertfriberg Would Slack see any value of baking in a feature which would suggest moving certain threads or messages to different channels depending on the topic and content? Having this work for DMs could also help to keep communication in the correct place.

@SlackHQ Hey, I have an issue on iOS where I will send a message and then that message reappears in the text field again, even after it's been sent. Do you know what's causing this? (And this is after clearing the cache and restarting the phone.)

Dear @SlackHQ, "threads" are great, they help have a focused discussion. But, threads in Slack are the worst. Here are my suggestions to fix them:

@SlackHQ I'm having issues with Slack for Windows using absurd amounts of CPU. It generally uses between 8% and 20% if my computers CPU.

@Ocramius @SlackHQ The trouble is, a lot of workplaces refuse to use it because they think it's just for gamers and game streamers. It's a huge shame because I feel Discord is such a better platform overall.

@SlackHQ - our trial ended & back to standard, Slack won't show any of my channels or DMs unless I use search to find them. Although they exists, the channels are not showing on the sidebar at all.... no amount of reinstalling, signing in/out has fixed! Please help...

@SlackHQ No error, the new messages just don't load and I get a permanently stuck unread notification on the channel or DM. Restarting app after force close sometimes helps, but not always. Other colleagues also report the same problem. Have a screen recording of it too if it helps.

@SlackHQ The short answer is to prevent knowledge loss. I see a tendency that a lot of problem solving happens in DM's between 2 members. A bot that reminds you and asks for confirmation before sending a DM would be even better.

@SlackHQ Hey, is there a way to get a slack's icon (on the far left, when you're signed in to multiple slacks) to also show a red dot for thread replies, not just DMs? It sucks to get a notification sound and then have to hunt down where it came from.
