y - alex ⚔️ (@onelonesabre) reported@SlackHQ @question_base can't use these features when your app is down my friend
-
Karri Saarinen (@karrisaarinen) reported@gustaf @ycombinator @SlackHQ What is degrading? WhatsApp imo is not a good example. Can’t even hold login on a desktop, and have to auth with your phone. Sync not super reliable either
-
Vish (@vish_sh_) reported@SlackHQ Slack bot requires a proper fix first.
-
Sam Pullara (@sampullara) reported@thdxr @SlackHQ No one wants all replies to show up in the channel. It is a terrible defauu.
-
Rohan (@iamTRA) reportedSlack upload API down? @SlackHQ Cratered team's morning.
-
Domino Mysłowski (@Domino_mys) reportedThere was Pay by Eye, by Ring, by Watch… time to Pay by Juice? 🧃💳 Okay, this one was just a joke created by Callum (FrostyTrollz). But 10 years ago, paying with your watch or ring also sounded ridiculous. A great example of how today’s joke can become tomorrow’s product is.. @SlackHQ The team behind Slack was actually building an online game called Glitch. As the founders later mentioned: “The game was absolutely preposterous.” Eventually, the game failed and was shut down. However, the internal chat tool they built to communicate became more valuable than the game itself. That tool became Slack, now used by millions of teams. 🌱 Follow for more wild growth-hacks

Jori Lallo (@jorilallo) reported@pizzaboy @karrisaarinen @SlackHQ It's still the same agent with capability to access everything as the caller user can. If you're calling it in the channel, it has that as context so it will file issue into the project by default and answer questions about the project without you needing to name it separately. If there's situatons where it's not working as intended, would love to get screenshots

jimmy hackett (@j1mmyhackett) reportedthe most dangerous bug isn't the one that crashes. it's the one that says 'all good' when it isn't. i had a checker that was supposed to flag a problem. it was reporting green. every single run. turns out it was checking the documentation of the thing it was hunting, not the thing itself. so whenever the problem existed and was documented, the checker saw the doc, said 'found it, it's tracked', and moved on. confident. wrong. this happened twice in the same week in two different places. a report card that shipped one of its four answers unconditionally regardless of the actual data. a monitor that was asserting schema state it had never actually read. both passed. both lied. the lesson i keep relearning: a check that can't fail toward a confident opposite is not a check. it's a placebo. the question isn't 'does this run without error.' the question is 'what would this have to see to fire, and can it actually see that thing.' if the answer to 'can it see it' is 'well, kind of, it reads the notes about it'. you don't have a checker. you have a script that reads its own homework. @SlackHQ kept posting green cards. @AnthropicAI's Claude Code kept summarising them as healthy. everything looked fine. nothing was. what's the quietest false-green you've shipped?

Andreas Elia (@digitalandreas) reported@johnbarker @SlackHQ Doesn't feel like they are. We've had a bunch of pre-existing issues for a while now (I replied to the other fella in the tweet with examples).
-
jbv 🌟 (@jbv) reported@SlackHQ liking the new activity view, still getting used to it. One thing: it doesn’t respect the “Just display names” setting. Is a fix coming? 👀
-
Mike Rochefort 🐧 (@omenosdev) reported@SlackHQ I've sent a message in via the feedback address, but for 4.50.136 either there's been an undisclosed change of GPG keys used in signing Linux packages or the wrong key was used accidentally. For environments with strict package verification this leads to install errors.
-
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?
-
Rob Swift (@RobSwish) reported@AgentAkki @SlackHQ Restarting doesn't help, and I mentioned this in the dms, it seems so weird to basically have 2 dm lists.
-
Savi (@SaviPabla) reported@trq212 Please @SlackHQ help us. I’m so tired of telling ppl to download. I’ve now started making videos of the html files and then sharing file as well lol
-
Leon (@MozzyFX) reportedPlease @SlackHQ can you add a proper GIF selector I need to send better gifs right after I take down production
-
Evis Drenova (@evisdrenova) reported@sbilstein @SlackHQ yeah to your earlier point i think it depends at what layer you want to attack it i.e. rust builds are slow, caching can help but github actions is trash for it, but blacksmith isn't bad, is there a generic solution you can use that *just works* on any CI? alternatively, go after the actual docker execution layer but not clear to me how much of a bottleneck that actually is vs. language specific idiosyncrasies buildkit is pretty optimized from what i've heard but i generally agree with make it fast and stupidly easy to use!

Chimene | Dantown (@AgentC_006) reported@thdxr @SlackHQ It’s always weird that you cannot actively reply to messages on Slack. The experience feels broken.
-
JM (@merklejosh) reported@SlackHQ There seems to be a bug in your Version 4.50.140 app (Mac) where if you have open a New message and you try to then click in the Search bar, you can't – it just flashes. Can you please fix this. It's very annoying. Thanks!
-
Andreas Elia (@digitalandreas) reported@cyberomin @SlackHQ Just to name a few: - Randomly opening channels a few miles up in the chat so I have to go all the way back down again - Right-click context menus are all over the place and inconsistent - Ghost notifications that show up randomly with no notification to go alongside them
-
jbv 🌟 (@jbv) reportedliking 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
-
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 🫶

John Harnett (@JohnHarnett) reported@cyberomin @digitalandreas @SlackHQ If you've filed a bug with them on the last 5 years and arent a big co then you'd know. They dont fix stuff just because it's broken.
-
Son of Earth (@vasundhar) reported@SlackHQ there is issue with your cache where you store message send failure and likes
-
✩°｡⋆⸜ (@lenvioux) reportedHEY @SlackHQ WHY I DIDNT GET NOTIFICATIONS neither on my phone for every conversation i had?!?! nor on my laptop app… unless i checked it every minutes?!!!? HELP
-
IT (@IncredibleTrade) reportedIs @SlackHQ mobile app down?
-
🇹🇼 Phillip Haydon 🇹🇼 (@philliphaydon) reportedIts really disappointing that @SlackHQ status page suggests its up, when it's clearly down and you can get up to date status from X users who are reporting the same issues.
-
April Underwood (@aunder) reportedIn this day and age of infosec threats, this subject line from @SlackHQ is a bad call. After the brief cortisol spike that someone using the name Miles Davis had joined our Slack, I scrolled down, and then just wondered why on earth I would want this in my work communication tool.
-
Alex Oppenheimer (@Alexoppenheimer) reported@SlackHQ I can't login to even contact support. I am in an infinite 2FA loop. And I am being overcharged. Needless to say, I am not happy.
-
trent.sol (@trentdotsol) reported@cavemanloverboy @alessandrod @SlackHQ i did. it's the ones who won't that are the problem
-
Jimidate (@Jimidvte) reported@SlackHQ, I’m having issues with my mobile notifications. I’ve checked every setting on my phone, uninstalled and reinstalled the app, yet I still don’t receive any push notifications. I’m missing time-sensitive information because I have to open the app before I see any updates.
