    @karrisaarinen @ycombinator @SlackHQ I'm experiencing reliability issues with Slack. Message's aren't sent. Messages can't be deleted. App not loading properly. I haven't had any of those issues with Whatsapp ever to be honest. Messages on iPhone is even worse. It's nearly unusable for me.

    @SlackHQ Always good to see Slack doubling down on productivity, not noise.

    @salesforce @SlackHQ Instead of buying other crappy software companies, create the best sales rep. SFDC 1.0>2.0>3.0... ITS ALL SO BROKEN. Broken company that had a chance to replace salespeople but didn’t use the data and systems they already had to make it happen with agents. WTF is agentforce?

    .@SlackHQ Why don't you have human service agents? You are a GIANT company used by many. The only contact us is via a webform?

    Dear @SlackHQ and @beehiiv Making ctrl+k NOT be the hyperlink shortcut is deliberate pain inflicated on GDocs and Gsuite users. Please fix.

    EVERY @ZoomInfo customer can connect @claudeai and ZoomInfo together right now- but how about in @SlackHQ ? With Claude? Here’s how to build a targeted prospect list and account plan without leaving Slack. (In <5 minutes) Step 1: Ask Claude directly inside Slack to build you a list I asked for… “25 CROs and VPs of Sales based in Boston, at software companies between 500–1k employees, with $100M+ in funding. Name, title, email, mobile, total funding.” It taps straight into your Zoominfo database and all comes back right there in the channel. It even flags who is on your do not call list. Step 2: Pick an account. Ask Claude to prep you for the call, directly in Slack. It uses Zoominfo to pull every conversation you've had with them - calls, emails, pain points they've raised, products they use. It comes back with the leadership you NEED to know, what's happening at the account right now and specific angles that could help you win. This works inside Claude too when you connect it up to our MCP server - you can even ask it to build you a custom interface to sort, edit, and work the data however you want. Zoominfo is going to show up EVERYWHERE. Slack, Claude, wherever you're doing GTM work, your data should follow you there.

    7:30a Getting eMail down to zero. Planning out my day in Google Calendar. Loading the team in @SlackHQ with today's website production and support.

    Hey @SlackHQ, can you please fix the recent list of reactions on Android? It doesn't make any sense how it works. It never shows any of the emojis I mostly use so I have to search them every time.

  • YukanL
    Ken Liao (@YukanL) reported

    It's been almost 2 days since @SlackHQ deleted our company workspace without warning. Aside from a vague email a few months ago about migrating to a different reseller in our region, there was no communication at all leading up to the deletion. Support only responds with the same message template telling us to reach out to sales and hasn't responded to followups since yesterday. Some of the worst SaaS customer service I've ever experienced. What are the best alternatives to Slack?

    Thinking 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.

    Facepalm: @SlackHQ still uses crosswalks and motorcycles during login to annoy humans and entertain AI.

    @kitayoshi_son @SlackHQ We've sent 2 emails so far nothing, they arent going to respond to you because this is a MASS event, you arent alone, we didnt even get the email people talk about and some others say that as well, we just got wiped. I don't think they will help you.

    @kurushdubash @patriciosainzr @SlackHQ 👋I work at Slack. Could you share a screenshot or more details on what's not working?

    Can someone please buy @SlackHQ and shut it down? This platform is horrible.

    liking the new slack activity view—still getting used to it. One thing: it doesn’t respect the “Just display names” setting. Is a fix coming? 👀 @SlackHQ

    @ManusAI @SlackHQ This kind of UX that charges users instantly without a clear confirmation step is unacceptable. @ManusAI please fix this and issue a refund. Users should NOT be charged $394 by mistake.

    Hi @SlackHQ, I’ve been unable to launch or load the iOS app for the past few hours. I have already tried logging out and back in, as well as a full uninstall and reinstall, but the issue persists. This is significantly impacting my work could you please look into this?

    @SlackHQ slack huddles has had video audio sync issues since it’s been launched. Please deploy at least 7 agents to fix this immediately.

    A 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

    @scott_peterson4 @SlackHQ I wonder if they intentionally don't fix it so you keep opening the app to try and clear it

  • MarketingMax
    MarketingMax.com (@MarketingMax) reported

    I never call out bad marketing But this is just infuriating. I pay them thousands of dollars a year, have the app installed in my computer, phone, and even iPad … so why did I get this? And why is it not optimized for dark iPhones? Let me know if you need help @SlackHQ @Benioff

    slack needs to fix the way they handle media uploads. it is terrible. @SlackHQ please fix up.

  • karrisaarinen
    Karri Saarinen (@karrisaarinen) reported

    @gustaf @ycombinator @SlackHQ I’d say Slack. Haven’t really experienced those issues you mention. Unless my internet is very bad. iMessage/whatsapp overly phone and counterparty focused so I’m more often wondering if the message actually got delivered or not and if the problem is me or them. Slack is more of a server and it doesn’t send the message if it doesn’t work.

  • bkwebster
    Brandon Karl Webster (@bkwebster) reported

    @adilmania @SlackHQ Better alternatives exist - it’s used abundantly because of the mindshare and scale. The only replacement would be a totally new and obvious form factor that leads to the same outcome in a better way - not a better alternative to the same problem.

  • Jordy_vD_
    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?

    @SlackHQ can you please fix the unread notification that does not go away even after reading the message? Thanks!
