-
Zev Zoldan (@ZevZoldan) reportedHot take for the AI founders knocking @SlackHQ: Slack doesn’t have a “communication problem.” Teams do. Most “ignored messages” aren’t about noise, attention spans, or channel chaos. It’s because Slack messages have zero structure. No timing. No follow-through. No visibility. Just text thrown into the void and a prayer. The second you add structure — forms, confirmations, simple logic — everything changes. People actually respond. Leaders stop guessing. Teams stop resending the same message 12 times. Slack doesn’t need fewer messages. It needs smarter ones. That’s what we’re building with @TryThreadly.
-
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
-
Joey Kudish (@jkudish) reported@mike_hasarms @SlackHQ Perhaps not but they’re being used that way (I’m in a few that I need to be in for work) and spam is a real problem. They should either force them to move elsewhere or offer spam moderation/ reporting tools. Status quo isn’t working.
-
Steve Ferguson (@M66) reportedI love when @SlackHQ offers a nominal discount for a paid service you already get included with @GoogleWorkspace and @Microsoft365. If your paying $12 a month for Slack, you still need the other. Stop being wasteful with Slack Pro.

Vincent (@r3curx) reported@SlackHQ your file uploads are terrible
-
Zev Zoldan (@ZevZoldan) reported@ethanmonkhouse @SlackHQ dude yes, exactly what we're trying to fix with @TryThreadly!
-
Matthew Cassinelli (@mattcassinelli) reported@samhenrigold So good. I wish this was accounted for when opening Spotlight from the Home Screen so they were distinct, that’s the only reason I don’t unless I have two sets (which do account for each other). Also lol @ @SlackHQ having an old Siri Shortcut donation whose image is broken
-
Precious (@Premauj) reportedAm I the only one @SlackHQ has been giving wrong notification counts??? Huddles you've left are still showing; new messages don't display on time. Especially on Mac. You people should fix up o
-
kingoftheworld (@4kingtheworld) reported@antonioventre_ @SlackHQ Hey man, I’d really appreciate help getting Slack restored. I’ve got a company with 40 employees and it’s catastrophic man anything you can do to help Tried dming but it didn’t work
-
Jeremy Levine (@JerLevine) reported@SlackHQ you guys have a gnarly bug and flow issue on iPad that makes the catchup feature (my fav ever) almost unusable. When I forward a message the app often crashes. If it doesn’t it moves me to the new chat (where I forwarded) but drops all the navigation so there’s no ability to get anywhere. I need to force quit and then restart slack to be able to navigate anywhere. Please fix! Can’t live without the catch up feature!
-
Kevz (@EngrKebin) reportedIs @SlackHQ slacking (pun intended) at the moment? App seems down. LOL
-
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
-
Bri (@thebriinme) reported@SlackHQ @50stev Was this fixed?? Slack doesn't catch ANY of my errors??
-
jericho (@attritionorg) reportedpeople in my circles are shutting down their entire servers over your new policies that haven't landed, but it's this bullshit that makes me want to find ANY other platform than yours. except @SlackHQ of course. even though they have improved while you haven't.
-
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.
-
asd (@0xANDREAS) reported@peduarte @SlackHQ Is that a problem? Companies need to have this access for compliance & legal reasons. Don’t assume anything private stays private if it’s shared over company platforms :)
-
Morten (@mortenag) reported@SlackHQ Huddle not working. Your @SlackStatus is green, but don't think that is correct

Arun Sharma (@Oxymarun_) reported@SlackHQ came out of a failing 10-person game studio the team needed a way to coordinate that wasn't email they built it for themselves then realized every distributed team on earth had the same problem
-
AI for Science (@AI_for_Science) reportedOur community slack channel with 1800 active members have been affected by the massive channel delete from Slack, we have tried to email them, call them but received no helpful support for a week. @SlackHQ Really appreciate if anyone could help bring our community back 🙏🙏🙏

HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported7a Planning out the day in Google Calendar and loading the team in @SlackHQ. Getting email down to zero.

Araldite #FBPE 🇪🇺🇺🇦 (@DitePeter) reported@SlackHQ I've cleared the cache and it's still the same, I'm running the latest android on a Samsung 24 ultra. it has the drop down menu on the PC but not the phone.
-
Fabian (@ffabbianr) reported@AmenaiSabuwala @SlackHQ This must be ragebait, right? You redesigned a Splash Screen into a login screen, those are separate things.

Jon ShapeShift (@JonShapeShift) reported@lorenzodoteth @SlackHQ Having same issue, driving me nuts
-
Asif (@asifmghafoor) reportedHi @SlackHQ out workspace (Spacious) has been deleted by mistake - no notification or emails or anything. We need this restored with history. Can someone please help? We have sent several support requests over the past few hours and no one has responded

BitcoinCPA (@bitcpa) reportedI am never going to use @SlackHQ again unless they fix the issue on the iPhone app where it doesn’t auto scroll to the latest message in a thread. You have to scroll down for 2 mins to get to the latest message. Not working for me on OpenClaw. Like if you know what I mean.

Yasser Ali (@garagosy) reportedLooks like @SlackHQ Huddles and messages are down. #slack
-
Contextrix (@ContextrixAi) reported@ManusAI @SlackHQ This solves a real problem for growing teams. Slack becomes a black hole of information where someone asked the same question six months ago but nobody can find it. Having that knowledge surface automatically when you need it saves a lot of repeated conversations.

Dominik (@DominikSklyarov) reported@AmenaiSabuwala @SlackHQ You were literally educated last time that it's a splash screen you're "redesigning" into a login screen. why?
