Simon Taylor (@sytaylor) reportedDear @SlackHQ and @beehiiv Making ctrl+k NOT be the hyperlink shortcut is deliberate pain inflicated on GDocs and Gsuite users. Please fix.

Yariv Ashkenazy (@YarivAshkenazy) reported@AltKek420 @SlackHQ @salesforce 1. Are you using Slack or Teams? 2. What size company do you work for? 3. What are the main problems you face with Slack? 4. What is a recent bad experience you had with Slack? 5. Would you be open for design partnership to build with us our product to address your needs?

Grok (@grok) reported@TheDavidYB @clickup @SlackHQ Interesting critique. ClickUp's Unlimited plan limits chat history to 90 days, per their help docs—upgrading to Business or higher unlocks unlimited access. This mirrors Slack's approach, creating tiered value from stored data. Users may see it as artificial gating; providers justify via storage costs and revenue strategy. What specific fix would you suggest?
-
Joey Kudish (@jkudish) reported@mike_hasarms @SlackHQ Perhaps not but I’m in a few so they should force them to move elsewhere or do something about the spam. It’s a problem
-
Grok (@grok) reported@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!

Huseyin Emanet (@huseyinemanet) reportedI'm trying to download an attachment on Slack but it never finishes 🤔 The progress bar just gets stuck and I've been trying to copy the link to the file and open it in the browser to download it but now that's not working either. @SlackHQ @SlackStatus
-
Nanda Kishore Kapa (@dunlop9) reported@SlackHQ This morning, I am not able to download files that were shared in slack. It appears to be a cloud issue. Can you look into it?

Abhishek (@abhi__katiyar) reported@peduarte @SlackHQ Mental model to help people make right choices “all your communication will become public record if your company gets subpoenaed”
-
Deepak Jadhav (@jadhavdeepak93) reportedSometimes 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.

Turki (@TurkiiHD) reported@0xWenMoon @SlackHQ pay 100k to get greeted late premium latency service at its finest
-
Liger Wealth Management (@kanute) reportedThinking about ditching @SlackHQ just because unfurling sucks so bad. Seems like this has been an issue for years. Spent way too much time trying to get reliable unfurling when my @openclaw bot posts.
-
Kim Jämiä (@KimJamia) reportedHey @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.
-
rushikesh (@ivadapav) reported@SlackHQ down. What's next?

Santosh | Google Ads Rescue for Ecom (@ScaleomX) reported@SlackHQ makes me miss a lot of messages, No notification even if I am marked @ Something is broken when you use it on both computer and phone. Anyone else facing this?
-
Yariv Ashkenazy (@YarivAshkenazy) reported@AltKek420 @SlackHQ @salesforce Agreed! Is your company building software? I'm building a work messaging app purpose-built for software builders (engineers, ***, designers). Would you be open to a quick chat (or can I send a DM) about the problems you currently have with Slack?
-
Oscar May • Quntem (@TheOtherSeru) reported@SlackHQ That's not the issue, and it seems to be fixed now. It was the new feature to show only active channels, and it kept changing itself. But now it has fixed itself!
-
Sen Yang (@undefined_blog) reportedour slack workspace has been deleted for no reason, no nofication nor verification, please reach out and help @SlackHQ
-
JustSteveKing (@JustSteveKing) reported@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
-
Bri (@thebriinme) reported@SlackHQ @50stev Was this fixed?? Slack doesn't catch ANY of my errors??
-
Tokyo (@ahmedtokyo) reportedThere’s this huge bug in slack where if you click on a draft message from your drafts on iPhone, Slack just fully deletes the draft message and opens an empty composer. This made me lose a lot of work. @SlackHQ you can fix this with claude. Just paste this tweet there.
-
π (@pientropy) reported@SlackHQ's stupidly broken scrolling is a crime against humanity
-
Chris Cardinal (@chriscardinal) reported@SlackHQ Holy **** did you guys seriously kill the "drag down to see recent channels" action on the android app?? To now show peppy little bromides? Are you people ******* insane? How am I supposed to move through multiple active conversations now?
-
Dan Mazy (@danmazy1) reported@SlackHQ I'm the sole owner of a paid workspace. Changed my number + email, so recovery doesn't work. I can verify via billing/credit card. Support can't help. Can't log in, can't add employees. There has to be a manual verification process. Please escalate.
-
F. Fernández-Beltrán (@franferbel) reportedHey @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? 🤔
-
Openfort (@openfort_hq) reported@aseemk @SlackHQ hey can you send us a dm and we'll try to fix this>

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.

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.

Henry Schuck (@HenryLSchuck) reportedEVERY @ZoomInfo customer can connect @claudeai and ZoomInfo together right now- but how about in @SlackHQ ? With Claude? Here’s how to build a targeted prospect list and account plan without leaving Slack. (In <5 minutes) Step 1: Ask Claude directly inside Slack to build you a list I asked for… “25 CROs and VPs of Sales based in Boston, at software companies between 500–1k employees, with $100M+ in funding. Name, title, email, mobile, total funding.” It taps straight into your Zoominfo database and all comes back right there in the channel. It even flags who is on your do not call list. Step 2: Pick an account. Ask Claude to prep you for the call, directly in Slack. It uses Zoominfo to pull every conversation you've had with them - calls, emails, pain points they've raised, products they use. It comes back with the leadership you NEED to know, what's happening at the account right now and specific angles that could help you win. This works inside Claude too when you connect it up to our MCP server - you can even ask it to build you a custom interface to sort, edit, and work the data however you want. Zoominfo is going to show up EVERYWHERE. Slack, Claude, wherever you're doing GTM work, your data should follow you there.
