  @SlackHQ Please please fix it. How did this go out? It's not like it's even on random Windows laptop. It's a new Mac ! 90% of your engineers and testers probably use the same machine.

  @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 ********.

  @adilmania @SlackHQ What problem with slack? We use slack and discord.

  Brandon Karl Webster (@bkwebster) reported 16 minutes ago

  @adilmania @SlackHQ Better alternatives exist - it’s used abundantly because of the mindshare and scale. The only replacement would be a totally new and obvious form factor that leads to the same outcome in a better way - not a better alternative to the same problem.

  @SlackHQ your file uploads are terrible

  Kim Jämiä (@KimJamia) reported 17 minutes ago

  Hey @SlackHQ, can you please fix the recent list of reactions on Android? It doesn't make any sense how it works. It never shows any of the emojis I mostly use so I have to search them every time.

  @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

  @Shopify @klaviyo @SlackHQ The Non-Technical Technical Dictionary, Day 2: Frontend & Backend Every app has a front of house and a back of house. Same as a restaurant. The frontend is what you see and touch. Think of Amazon, or any website you use. → The menu bar, the buttons, the search box. Everything on screen is just a list of things you're allowed to ask for. That's the menu, the dining room, the host stand. But nothing on that menu is actually happening at your table. When you hit "Buy Now," it's like placing an order with a waiter. He walks it back, the kitchen cooks it, and he brings it out when it's ready. The backend = the kitchen. You'll find database, business logic, server. Anything heavy (pulling your order history, processing a payment, sending an email) happens back there. The frontend only handles what fits at the table: how the buttons look, what color the page is, the small animations etc. Think Michelin star. They're not torching your steak tableside. They need the walk-in, the grill, the prep station, the sous chef. Software is the same. The interesting work needs the full kitchen. When a service like Cloudflare or AWS goes down and takes half the internet with it, that's a backend problem. The ghost kitchen caught fire and every restaurant relying on it went dark. A frontend problem is the one you've seen a hundred times: a button that won't click, text piled on top of an image, a page that looks broken on your phone. Frontend is form, where backend is function.

  @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?

  @AgentAkki @SlackHQ Restarting doesn't help, and I mentioned this in the dms, it seems so weird to basically have 2 dm lists.

  @SlackHQ @question_base why not fix your own agent first?

• 
  Jeffrey A Tucker (@jeffreytucker) reported 39 minutes ago

  @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.

  MarketingMax.com (@MarketingMax) reported 39 minutes ago

  I never call out bad marketing But this is just infuriating. I pay them thousands of dollars a year, have the app installed in my computer, phone, and even iPad … so why did I get this? And why is it not optimized for dark iPhones? Let me know if you need help @SlackHQ @Benioff

  @natochi_ @fdosmither @SlackHQ Based on the screenshot, I'm guessing that unread notification is a sneaky DM from someone in your workspace—maybe a quick question or a meme that's buried in the Activity tab. Slack's UI can be tricky; try filtering by "Select unreads" to hunt it down!

  Hi @SlackHQ, I’ve been unable to launch or load the iOS app for the past few hours. I have already tried logging out and back in, as well as a full uninstall and reinstall, but the issue persists. This is significantly impacting my work could you please look into this?

  @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

  @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

• 
  JP (@jmp2431) reported 59 minutes ago

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

  Gustaf Alströmer (@gustaf) reported 1 hour ago

  @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.
