  • FredsDaily
    HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported

    7a Planning out the day in Google Calendar and loading the team in @SlackHQ. Getting email down to zero.

  • ZevZoldan

    Hot 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.

    I 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.

    @peduarte @SlackHQ I like how the proposed community note is like ‘no they can’t’ then you read the slack docs and there is a self service export tool for org owners

  • IamJoshJackson
    Josh Jackson (@IamJoshJackson) reported

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

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

    @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.

  • jmp2431

    @SlackHQ is the system having trouble saving changes to a workflow? I can’t get anything to save.

  • OxDisky
    Disky.eth (@OxDisky) reported

    I just learned you can basically see all @SlackHQ profile images publicly without the need for authenticated request. Isn't this both a #privacy issue and security issue? I mean, you can basically fetch them from ca.slack-edge dot com. #slack #privacyprotection

    @SlackHQ If it's based on Salesforce's support AI, then we're off. It's terrible and ends up taking twice as long to do what we want.

    @AmenaiSabuwala @SlackHQ If Slack would not need the Splash Loader they would surely remove it and dive directly to login. Please understand the basic, before posting such stuff. 😫

    @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.

    @AmenaiSabuwala @SlackHQ I feel like people are at the login screens for not that long, I see why they only have their logos

    @SlackHQ @linear @cursor_ai Slack is a garbage product. Everything about it is trash. The reliability is trash, the support is trash, and the way you handle users is absolute trash. Impressive how consistently terrible you manage to be.

    Deepak Jadhav (@jadhavdeepak93) reported

    Sometimes you slow things down on purpose to preserve coherence. Example: @SlackHQ shows typing indicators. Not because it must, but because humans need temporal context. Elevators do the same thing in spatial context.

  • RyanDMeyer
    RyanMeyer (@RyanDMeyer) reported

    @jedcli @SlackHQ HK company, US billing. suddenly shut off and Slack has zero customer service. No phone number, no live chat, nothing... submit an email and wait and pray apparently. What ********.

  • antonioventre_
    Antonio Ventre (@antonioventre_) reported

    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

  • i_cirkovic

    Soo.. @Zoom @SlackHQ @canva down.. what else?

  • voideng
    Jason Robinson (@voideng) reported

    @QuinnyPig @awscloud I would agree, but I had a number of workloads fail over to other regions without issue, all of them used DynamoDB. I am thankful that @SlackHQ is multi-region.

    Not a single day passes when using @SlackHQ on mobile where uploading multiple images, causes me to tap on the "record an audio clip" button, because "attach" button appears *after* selecting an image and slides the entire sheet up. @SlackHQ please for the love of god fix this!!

  • BelmontJockey
    New Chapter Reprise Inigo Montoya (@BelmontJockey) reported

    AVOID using @SlackHQ at all costs. The UI is TERRIBLE. I get random notifications under "Activity" and it is impossible to find. So there is a red bubble notification that will never goes away. It happens all of the time. FREAKING TERRIBLE! Impossible to track down.

  • 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? 🤔

    Anyone using clawdbot? Seeing loads of videos on how its so easy to use - 8 hrs in & still can't get @xai to run. Grok has give me an amended .json file which fails.

Configure auth for this agent (clawdbot agents add <id>) or copy auth-profiles.json from the main agentDir. Logs: clawdbot logs --follow

    hello @SlackHQ team there’s a very annoying bug that makes agents in slack significantly worse UX and is probably crushing engagement. can someone help

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