-
The Mishmash Cat (@TheMishmashCat) reported[1/5] Your #brain cannot multithread. When you switch from writing code to answering a @SlackHQ ping, your prefrontal cortex doesn't execute a clean parallel jump - it triggers an expensive, messy tear-down and rebuild process. You are burning raw compute.
-
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'
-
Paul Tellefsen (@technopaul) reported@SlackHQ Anyone else having app problems on MacOS when you go to resize the window it moves it instead of sizing? Been like this for a month or more now!
-
Brandon Karl Webster (@bkwebster) reported@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.
-
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?
-
Krazed 🇵🇸 (@Krazed) reported@SlackHQ you have a degradation rn? unable to create channels and getting intermittent issues with events
-
Sen Yang (@undefined_blog) reportedour slack workspace has been deleted for no reason, no nofication nor verification, please reach out and help @SlackHQ

Mohi (@disismohi) reported@SlackHQ: 40% less merge queue time, CI type-checking down from 7.5 minutes to 1.25 minutes. Canva: 58s to first error in the editor down to 4.8s.

Jake Mor (@jakemor) reportedcan someone at @SlackHQ please for the love of god fix drag and drop to attach a file? how has this been an issue for months without anyone realizing? Steps to reproduce: Drag file to attach. Nothing happens. no file attached.
-
Cass Anderson (@casspa) reported@Yonar87 @SlackHQ same issue here. Just sent them an email. Their status landing page says they've been 100% find this quarter which makes me think maybe they just don't update that page?
-
Jori Lallo (@jorilallo) reported@pizzaboy @karrisaarinen @SlackHQ It's still the same agent with capability to access everything as the caller user can. If you're calling it in the channel, it has that as context so it will file issue into the project by default and answer questions about the project without you needing to name it separately. If there's situatons where it's not working as intended, would love to get screenshots
-
Jon Slemp (@Jon_Slemp) reportedBug report for you @SlackHQ — when receiving a DM notification from Agents, and those agents are setup as Slack apps you have to DM directly in an app channel, once you hit a certain number of chats in your history tab you can no longer navigate to the DM directly by clicking the DM notification on mobile. You basically get navigated to a blank screen and effectively chat find the message ever. Please fix. This is a disaster of a bug.

Peval 🇮🇹 🇪🇺 🇬🇧🏳️🌈 (@jabawack81) reported@gabsmashh Once nearly turned down a job interview because the invite came through @MicrosoftTeams. Spent the whole call trying to casually work out if they used @SlackHQ instead. They did.
-
Agustín Ruiz (@aguscruiz) reportedHi @SlackHQ, can you please fix this notification dot issue? It's been bothering me for like a month or more already. It shows that I have something unread when I don't. Even hovering on it makes the dot go away when there's something unread. It's very annoying for people with "unread anxiety" like me lol. Thank you 🫶

Darcy (@darcy_jpa) reported@SlackHQ @linear @cursor_ai Slack is a garbage product. Everything about it is trash. The reliability is trash, the support is trash, and the way you handle users is absolute trash. Impressive how consistently terrible you manage to be.

-
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
-
Pavel Zagorodnikh (@pavzagor) reported@SlackHQ you should really fix your reactions search its such a pain to remember the names of emojis. Look at what folks at @raycast and @telegram do 👀

Jide (@rhymezx_code) reported@SlackHQ Tell me why Slack desktop is not working on Ubuntu 26.04 ( Resolute Raccoon ) ??? Honestly i have tried o #Ubuntu
-
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
