Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Chimene | Dantown (@AgentC_006) reported@thdxr @SlackHQ It’s always weird that you cannot actively reply to messages on Slack. The experience feels broken.
-
Signal House (@SignalHouseSMS) reported@SlackHQ @notion the only repetitive question saved here that matters is 'is the otp service still down.' second only to 'is the otp service still down for everyone or just me'
-
Razi Ansari (@RaziAns14640044) reported@SlackHQ should fix the UX of their video player. It's one of the worst pieces of UX I've ever interacted with. It feels like I suddenly landed on some government app. Too messy
-
Akshay (✈️ NYC) (@AgentAkki) reported@RTFern @SlackHQ Sorry about that, Ryan! I work at slack. Tell me more about what’s not working for you?
-
Tony Dehnke - building 12v.Biz 🧰 & more (@tonydehnke) reported@yongfook Weird you had some many issues. My last few have gone really well. The most annoying app is @SlackHQ which sucks as it makes you log into each space again. Hopefully your next one goes better!
-
Ravi (@ravilutionx) reported@SlackHQ @trq212 And a verbosity problem
-
IT (@IncredibleTrade) reportedAny issues with @SlackHQ
-
Corey Quinn (@QuinnyPig) reported@samlambert @joshmgross It’s almost impossible to mention a bug in Slack and get anyone at @SlackHQ to fix it.
-
Alex Sidorenko (@alexei_sid) reported@Moore_Irish @salesforce @SlackHQ Pricing changes that reduce admin control while pushing AI features rarely improve outcomes. The real test: does the AI actually help teams make faster, better decisions, or is it just another feature tax masquerading as innovation?
-
Chinthan B M (@mrchintz) reported@SlackHQ Down?
-
jbv 🌟 (@jbv) reportedliking the new slack activity view—still getting used to it. One thing: it doesn’t respect the “Just display names” setting. Is a fix coming? 👀 @SlackHQ
-
AK (@MohschinoKhan) reported@daveamsterdam20 @SlackHQ Same issue here wtf is going on!! @SlackHQ
-
GosuCoder (@GosuCoder) reportedSlackbot legit might be one of my favorite uses of AI outside of coding. I use this thing constantly to find past conversations, summarize entire chats, help write responses, look for things I might be forgetting, or even look up past context on a decision or topic. Seriously @SlackHQ this legit improves my life
-
Manoj Yadav (@Manoj____Yadav) reported@TheNickBigar @CricTalk29 @SlackHQ No it doesn’t track time, you need to tell the time spent via message. Example- worked on X for 30 mins - remind me about checking the production issue around 3 pm The idea is to reduce friction for users on how they track time and tasks
-
Aadii (@AadityaPasayat) reported@raidingAI @SlackHQ @slashyai I am sorry to say, but u don't have taste, either the editor. R eyes go from left to right, common sense. Btw I can help u get taste
-
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
-
JM (@merklejosh) reported@SlackHQ There seems to be a bug in your Version 4.50.140 app (Mac) where if you have open a New message and you try to then click in the Search bar, you can't – it just flashes. Can you please fix this. It's very annoying. Thanks!
-
Karri Saarinen (@karrisaarinen) reported@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
-
dnd dhmu (@refreshmygrave) reported@advaithj1 @thdxr @SlackHQ bro pls fix ur support for discord no real people reply ever
-
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

HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported8a On my morning @Zoom with Jbazmine. Planning out the day, so we can work out the plan. Going through and getting eMail down to zero and assigning tasks in @SlackHQ.

Cathryn (@cathrynlavery) reported@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.

wanderingwanderer (@iceman_ome) reported.@SlackHQ and @Jira have the weirdest integration possible. Have spent the last 15 mins trying to remove jira app from Slack, but unable to. Can someone more knowledgeable help?

Rushabh Shah (@beingrushabh07) reportedHi @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?
