  • hayls_brown Hayley (@hayls_brown) reported

    It should be way easier than it is to edit messages on slack. @SlackHQ fix it please

  • stevieinselby Stevie D Esq. 🔶 🇪🇺 🇬🇧 🏳️‍🌈 👊🏿 😷 (@stevieinselby) reported

    @SlackHQ You're pushing this the day after you had a total outage and the whole system went offline for a big chunk of the afternoon? 🥴

  • harusha Harsha Bharadhwaj (@harusha) reported

    @suyogg @SlackHQ Was wondering if that was my mobile problem. Now I know

  • Portekoi Portekoi (@Portekoi) reported

    @SlackHQ #slackdown : if you want to keep your customers, you really should find the issue.

  • OxfordMale Oxford Male (@OxfordMale) reported

    @SlackHQ So decided by committee, and not a reflection of reality. The truth is that the uptime of Slack has been appalling since the start of the Covid crisis, especially when compared to Teams. An outage that lasts several hours and affects most of your user base is unacceptable

  • masoombakliwal Masoom Jain (@masoombakliwal) reported

    Am I the only one who was not impacted with @SlackHQ outage? #slackdown #slackoutage

  • andrewrogoff Andrew Rogoff (@andrewrogoff) reported

    @SlackHQ thanks for getting your service back up and running yesterday. When can we expect a report on what went wrong? Confidence is slightly dented right now and I'm sure your customers will appreciate it. Unless I missed it, I see nothing on your blog or Twitter stream.

  • mneylon Michele Neylon (@mneylon) reported

    @SlackHQ It's highly misleading to state 100% uptime there when just about every media outlet on the planet carried stories about your outage.

  • gbaileycom Gregory Bailey (@gbaileycom) reported

    In retrospect, @SlackHQ and @NotionHQ being down yesterday was so 2020.

  • orhnkutlu Orhan Kutlu (@orhnkutlu) reported

    @SlackHQ @krishamoud That also got my attention. It says 99.71% now which means 20 mins down-time in the last 5 days. Shouldn’t it be lesser than that? The outage was ~4 hours.

  • masonsklar masonsklar (@masonsklar) reported

    Hey @SlackHQ fix the file download dialogue on mac ffs. ive been whining to you about this for several months. you can afford to do it.

  • iflyupsidedown Bill Rashid (@iflyupsidedown) reported

    Shower thought yesterday: when @SlackHQ goes down, how does the team communicate to get things back up? Email...? #slackdown

  • vipsyvipul Vipul Bansal (@vipsyvipul) reported

    @SlackHQ Unable to access Slack on desktop after yesterday's outage. It keeps redirecting me to the system status page. Help is appreciated.

  • akhilgupta_me Akhil Gupta (@akhilgupta_me) reported

    @SlackHQ down ?

  • arphillips91 Andrew Phillips (@arphillips91) reported

    @SlackHQ I discovered what the real issue is – the Notification Schedule setting was blocking notifications at specific times. How can I turn that setting off so that notifications are *always* allowed, 24/7?

  • J_B_Horne Jenny Horne (@J_B_Horne) reported

    Yesterday's $WORK outage only highlighted its importance to today's #WFH world. I immediately panicked I had no way of communicating (highly important in live TV). Even email for a brief back-and-forth felt prehistoric. Never do that to me again, @SlackHQ.

  • wbolster wouter bolsterlee 🙃 (@wbolster) reported

    @SlackHQ can't test since the status page only shows during an outage... which is over thankfully 👍 anyway, engineers may need to look into the way external links (to twitter in this example) work when the app is in "degraded" mode. (also i'm on linux)

  • jointhecolonii Colonii (@jointhecolonii) reported

    @SlackHQ investigating outage as users report issues connecting to app

  • chrisgagne Chris Gagné (@chrisgagne) reported

    @SlackHQ Sure did! :) Not sure how sending a generic spam message that I received at that email address would help, but it's in your inbox. My records indicate that it also happened in May 2018, but I did not receive a reply from your team then, either.

  • rehack20 K (@rehack20) reported

    Problem is #slackisdown did not even tell me of their failure to post. Like what Gmail shows a connectivity issue in yellow. Your client should also do that @SlackHQ . It can cause embarrassment. Am sure several people were on Monday.

  • ShikharMittal17 Shikhar Mittal (@ShikharMittal17) reported

    @SlackHQ not working this morning was exactly the motivation I was looking for :) #slackoutage

  • samir_javer Samir Javer (@samir_javer) reported

    @SlackHQ is your Google Calendar integration not working today? Missed an event reminder today.

  • ceaules_baules dilibau cotzcaru (@ceaules_baules) reported

    @SlackHQ so like... why was Slack down for so long yesterday? Where and when can we get an RCA ?

  • PudgyNugget Pudgy Nugget (@PudgyNugget) reported

    @Box @SlackHQ @Webex When do you expect a fix in the Mac Desktop app to be updated to work with Big Sur?

  • galli_gianluca Gianluca Galli (@galli_gianluca) reported

    @SlackHQ That's very convenient, isn't it? Issues are marked as resolved on your page, so 100% uptime is simply a lie at the moment. Remove it, say something like "n/a" or simply explain....but do not lie

  • webjedi Amélie E. Koran (@webjedi) reported

    If @SlackHQ is down again later today... I’m going outside for a walk.

  • ArneKuilman ArneKuilman (@ArneKuilman) reported

    @SlackHQ No, I genuinely liked this page. It was an old link in our internal Slack. No problems here.

  • hohenner Andy Hohenner (@hohenner) reported

    @PaulHolland_TWN @SlackHQ 100% of the time they said they'd be up, they didn't say they'd be up during an outage, right?

  • Aquarion Nicholas/Aquarion (@Aquarion) reported

    @JplusCplusM @SlackHQ @SlackStatus And when it was up it was up, and when it was down it was up, and when it was bouncing up and down it was still marked here as up.

  • parkerschmitt Parker Schmitt (@parkerschmitt) reported

    @SlackHQ Is it still down?
