    @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.

    Anyone know how to gert @SlackHQ support? I've got a bit of a lingering issue that I'm not sure how do deal with due to ownership of Slack deployment.

    @OpenAI @linear @SlackHQ The agent that pulls context from docs, email, chats, and code to update your Linear ticket: "status: someone else's problem"

    @gabsmashh Once nearly turned down a job interview because the invite came through @MicrosoftTeams. Spent the whole call trying to casually work out if they used @SlackHQ instead. They did.

    @SlackHQ You have no way to provide feedback within your app so... your snap installer has major issues.

    @SlackHQ there is issue with your cache where you store message send failure and likes

    @SlackHQ Most AI agents fail because they’re written by bloated enterprise teams who don’t really know what problem they’re solving.

    @SlackHQ Our team loves the platform, but we really need to fix the mark unread feature. It’s been broken for years now. First, you should be able to mark a channel as unread without opening the channel and selecting a message. Second, half the time marking a message as unread doesn’t work. I have to go message by message, trying over and over until one works. Please fix this, thank you 🫠

    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

    @SlackHQ your headphone icon on huddles is a huge annoyance and an invasion of privacy for everyone. Users can turn it off but there should be the ability to shut this down for the whole workspace. We really don't need to know who is talking with whom at any one time.

  • franferbel
    F. Fernández-Beltrán (@franferbel) reported

    Hey @SlackHQ — it’s been 3 days waiting for a response from your Help Center. For a platform that sells efficiency and seamless communication, this feels… ironic. Is this really the standard for customer support? 🤔

    Vlad (@vladoustinov) reported

    @MerlinEgalite @SlackHQ The problem is they gave up on product a long time ago haha But yes embedding tools/workflows inside interfaces people are already used to use (slack/email/Notion etc) is the way to go

    @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?

  • mikvjpev

    @RealFeatBit @SlackHQ Have the same issues. Our workspace doesnt exist anymore

    @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.

    @karrisaarinen @SlackHQ Did Linear do this before agents? I tried project-level Slack channels at my org and found it works for enterprise engagements nicely, but breaks down at feature/epic level projects for our SaaS. There's a granularity sweet spot, too fine and context switching costs spike. Too coarse and projects blur. Plus no project is actually isolated in small teams, so cross-project conversations forced more people onto each channel and productive engagement suffered. I get the AI context-confinement angle, but curious what other benefits you're seeing?

    @SlackHQ is the new Webex. Absolutely terrible performance and difficult to use on cellular networks in India now. I was so excited when the company I joined used Zoom instead on that terrible terrible productivity waste that was Webex. That’s slack now.

    @heyandras @SlackHQ I had the same issue, but it's like $3.50 or something per user a month - so for just me it was easier to pay it

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

  • troy_ruediger
    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.

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

    .@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?

    Is @SlackHQ broken today - I am using Focus mode - seems like the emoticons are breaking.

  • pizzaboy

    @karrisaarinen @SlackHQ Hey @karrisaarinen are the new project slack channels scoped to just that project I.e if you use the Linear slack bot in the channel will it only have access to issues and data from that project? I found that to be an issue a couple of months ago that the bot wasn’t able to be scoped down? Or was this a skill issue on my end

    New Slack Design is terrible. @SlackHQ can I revert to a previous version just a few updates from this one!
