    Are slack service down in Pakistan @SlackHQ #slack

  • forrestbrazeal Forrest Brazeal (@forrestbrazeal) reported

    @jrhunt @SlackHQ @discord This is a legit problem. Would love an easy server-level way to, say, hide people's linked media activity. I don't want people joining my work-adjacent Discord to have to worry about disclosing their weird Spotify tastes

  • s1guza Siguza (@s1guza) reported

    @A2nkF_ @SlackHQ Yes. SMS is not gonna screw you over with a UI redesign. It's not gonna shove some new feature down your throat. It doesn't require an Electron app. SMS sucks and should be replaced, but at least its shortcomings are well known and stay consistent. Not so for Slack.

  • francepierre Pierre France 🇫🇷 (@francepierre) reported

    @SlackHQ I love your service but frankly it's overpriced.

  • juanlgilg Juan Luis (@juanlgilg) reported

    @SlackHQ Hi, I have a problem with the login, slack never send me the Email with the 6 digits and I can't login in Slack. You can help me with this?

  • theboyfromgalle Sukhith M. (@theboyfromgalle) reported

    What's better? @clickup @SlackHQ @bitrix24 for a free user with a small team? #help

  • writenatewrite Nate Givens (@writenatewrite) reported

    Most recent @NVIDIAGeForce update seems to have killed @SlackHQ on my Windows 10 box. I can launch Slack, but it's just a blank, back window. Trying to run from command line with --disable-gpu doesn't work either. Help?

  • LucyJung Lucy Jung (@LucyJung) reported

    As team @CharcoLtd grows, we recently switched to @SlackHQ but it is not easy to use gifs and we are very sad! Can you help us @GIPHY we want to have options for us to choose not shuffle for long XD !

  • InstantRaman_ Ajay (@InstantRaman_) reported

    @SlackHQ - not sure why, but I've not been getting login OTPs unless I request a second time.

  • coldplague 𝔏𝔯𝔯𝔯 (@coldplague) reported

    @a_tensae @SlackHQ Can get to the login page.

  • rohangrge Rohan George (@rohangrge) reported

    @SlackHQ seriously needs to fix their android app, considering they charge a good amount for using their service

  • krzysdan Kris Dante Daniel (@krzysdan) reported

    There is again some problem with a focus on input on @SlackHQ in #windows. Input is focused, I type a message but is not typed. I need to focus for the second time :(

  • dstockto David Stockton (@dstockto) reported

    @JacobWaaters @SlackHQ Same issue here on 2 different computers over the last 2 days.

  • VinitaTakiar Vinita Takiar, MD, PhD (@VinitaTakiar) reported

    @ameetchimote @SlackHQ @NewPI_Slack Our lab uses this. Agree with above. We have separate groups for away msgs, general, help finding things etc. Have someone from the lab show you!

  • kmcpbarton Just wear a damn mask (@kmcpbarton) reported

    @SlackHQ Why are some of my custom emojis broken images for me and not for other people? And why is the set of broken emojis different every day? It's maddening to not know who is getting the carefully curated artisinal emojis I have added!

  • edmaughan Ed (@edmaughan) reported

    All my muted @SlackHQ channels have unmuted themselves over the weekend and it may be easier to resign and find a new job than fix this

  • hedley_smith Hedley Smith (@hedley_smith) reported

    @adamcranfield @clickup @SlackHQ Yeah, although I'm personally not a fan of work WhatsApp groups. I genuinely think the UX of Basecamp might be an issue - with Slack you can separate things into channels and unsubscribe from those channels. Basecamp pushes comms in people's faces more.

  • kuchhal_dhruv Dhruv Kuchhal (@kuchhal_dhruv) reported from Atlanta, Georgia

    @jeffbigham @SlackHQ Weirdly, I have noticed that this happens only when I’m using these (electron based) apps after having woken up my Mac. If you shut down the laptop instead of putting it to sleep every time, these issues go away. 🤔

  • a_tensae ትንሣኤ Tensae Ali (@a_tensae) reported

    🤔 Is @SlackHQ down? For some reason I can't access it via web or the app!

  • rdreidjr Robert Reid (@rdreidjr) reported

    @SlackHQ When we absolutely, positively, have to do this, we revert back to GMail. We would *much* rather use Slack. Also, I can't help but notice the Schedule button right below this text as I type.

  • OurielOhayon Ouriel Ohayon (@OurielOhayon) reported

    @SlackHQ Be aware that many conversations are broken because of that

  • LtRoyalShrimp Phil Eggebrecht (@LtRoyalShrimp) reported

    @SlackHQ My app on Windows 10 is freezing nearly every time I open it after being minimized. I've got colleagues reporting similar issues. Is this being worked on?

  • jeffbigham Jeff Bigham (@jeffbigham) reported

    laptop was struggling; computer fan on full blast… forced quit @SlackHQ, and laptop calmed down. works for people too.

  • WoodrowShigeru Woodrow Shigeru (@WoodrowShigeru) reported

    I already know about the red dot badge in the system tray but what does the turquoise one mean? How can I remove it? And why can't I find any info on what the badges mean? @SlackHQ #help #meaning #remove

  • DogGeneticsLLC Liz Hare PhD STILL at home (@DogGeneticsLLC) reported

    @SlackHQ Stop expecting disabled people to document your issues for you for free. You’ve gotten a few emails from me, but I’m not developing your app for you.

  • DavidDarnes Dave 🧱 (@DavidDarnes) reported

    @SlackHQ No worries. I was sent a workspace invitation, and it wanted me to use Slack connect to connect it to my own workspace. Trouble was I didn't have one to connect it to, it threw me over to my Slack app and then nothing happened. I then received an invitation to my own workspace

  • andresalcarraz Andres Alcarraz (@andresalcarraz) reported

    @SlackHQ @Ronef If the problem is privacy issue, it can be done by asking the members for its approval. If someone not present at some point in the history is later incorporated in the channel he already can see what everyone wrote, so the privacy issue is already there!!!!

  • mjduigou mike duigou 🏠😷💉 (@mjduigou) reported

    Well, @SlackHQ is broken again because it downloaded 2.0GB of data overnight into my browser and hit the site data limit. Why would it possibly ever need to store that much data locally?

  • joshbuchea Josh Buchea (@joshbuchea) reported

    Boy @SlackHQ has to my biggest distraction during the work day. Constant interruptions all day. I know this is an org problem rather than a tooling problem, but it's still a problem. All it takes is a few folks who use it synchronously and then it's difficult to ignore.

  • benlong It’s been a long time (@benlong) reported

    @SlurSchwa @SlackHQ The way this scales is for people to manage their notification and schedules. If not slack+workflows it’s some other software with the same problem. I agree email is a good alternatice for off-hours communication.
