Zach Bresler (@bresler_zach) reportedWhy has Apple changed the Mac screenshot file type… @claudeai, @ChatGPTapp and @SlackHQ are now giving issues with the HEIC format Please change it back to png
-
Shantanu (@shantanughosh) reported@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.
-
Azmy (@AzmyBlog) reported@lennysan @SlackHQ @aunder The strobe light thing is so real. The person presenting has been inside the problem for weeks. The reviewer walks in cold. And it's not really a flaw in the exec ..... it's just structural. That gap exists at every level in every review setting. The actual skill is learning to rebuild context for the reviewer quickly, instead of assuming they're already there with you.

Ken Liao (@YukanL) reportedIt's been almost 2 days since @SlackHQ deleted our company workspace without warning. Aside from a vague email a few months ago about migrating to a different reseller in our region, there was no communication at all leading up to the deletion. Support only responds with the same message template telling us to reach out to sales and hasn't responded to followups since yesterday. Some of the worst SaaS customer service I've ever experienced. What are the best alternatives to Slack?

-
Pavan Pal (@Pavan_Kumar_Pal) reported@SlackHQ Always good to see Slack doubling down on productivity, not noise.
-
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
-
kzer_AI (@kzer_ai) reported@OpenAI @linear @SlackHQ The agent that pulls context from docs, email, chats, and code to update your Linear ticket: "status: someone else's problem"
-
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.
-
Krazed 🇵🇸 (@Krazed) reported@SlackHQ you have a degradation rn? unable to create channels and getting intermittent issues with events
-
Amanda (@hey_amandam) reported@TejasKumar_ @SlackHQ Yes 👏 The issue with this (and all things like it) for me is that there seems to be some idea that anyone sees "AI" and immediately associates that with some value. What user pain of mine are you solving? I literally do not care if you are using AI or not to solve it, I just want the best experience. Explore AI as a cta is a waste of space and my mental energy
-
M. Yahia (@maddada) reported@aaditsh @adilmania @SlackHQ Same, it's 10 times better than discord, teams, hangout, zoom, etc. Not sure about newer apps but I literally have 0 issues with slack. It's really good with connect too if you work with external companies, beats email by light years.
-
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.
-
Ari Dehkordi (@arashdehkordiHQ) reported@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?
-
Beryl (@Beryl2021) reported@SlackHQ Same here. Our workspace is also showing as deleted and we're locked out. Billing is up to date and no one on our team triggered this. Glad to know we're not the only ones, but this is a major glitch. We’ve already reached out to support but haven't heard back yet 😢
-
SeattleViewHomes (@SeattleViewHome) reported@MadronaVentures @SlackHQ @salesforce Should we expect investment & AI to be doubling down on the green economy now that no one credible is promoting the fossil fuel/engineered obsolescence economies to be sustainable or even beneficial?
-
Ratherreallife (@ratherrealife) reported@SlackHQ Can you help me with what suppose to happen when someone(s) does something like this to a person
-
Kurush Dubash (@kurushdubash) reported@SlackHQ can you please revert your most recent update, it is so bad. This is terrible for anyone who is inbox 0. Please don't make me use Teams
-
Lalbee (@rebeurebel) reported@SlackHQ you guys are mental. You barely warn your users about migration and delete 20% of your slack active orgs without repeated warnings? You guys think everyone reads your cute email newsletters? What about BIG RED WARNINGS daily on the slack app itself? Ridiculous. Please help us get our accounts back.
-
Kleptocracy (@lfdoyfydoydtd) reported@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?
-
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
-
Björne 🇸🇪🏋️♂️ (@SilchQuatch) reported@QuinnyPig @SlackHQ Every single unwarranted notification births months of hate inside of me. Literally anti-ads for me, any pattern of it and I immediately remove the service. I guess it has to work or it wouldn't be done?
-
Ariel Sterman (@ArielSterman) reportedIs @SlackHQ down? heard it here first.
