-
Element **** (@elementdsj) reported@SlackHQ @vercel debugging a broken deployment directly from a chat thread is actually beautiful.
-
SGN (@SGN06380601) reported@SlackHQ i need customer service help and am not getting a response from your agentforce. can you please help?
-
Rab Memari (@rabmemari) reported@chriskim_dev @Teknium No problem. I think its more of a @SlackHQ problem, but happy to check if I can fix it in Hermes and push a PR
-
Vish (@vish_sh_) reported@SlackHQ Slack bot requires a proper fix first.
-
Bhuvanesh Sridharan (@_bhuvanesh_) reportedas much hate @MicrosoftTeams gets, at least the meeting chat and other chats are on the same platform. Absence of synergy between @SlackHQ chat and Google meet is such a pet peeve. Non issue in grand scheme but still bothering whenever people send links in gmeet.
-
David Welch (@david_welch) reportedHey @SlackHQ, there's some talk in the security community about the world is sorta burning down and we need a new space for community discussion. Would you ever donate to help a very highly visible space? You'd be next to names like IBM/Dell/Microsoft/etc. DMs open to chat
-
Theodor Marcu (@theodormarcu) reportedPutting an agent in Slack creates a very different type of UX problem: it has to know when to shut up We spent a lot of time tuning when Devin should speak, stay quiet, or move work into a separate channel. Devin was the first agent to support Slack natively, so it was great to bring 2 years of those learnings to @SlackHQ for the Slack Code launch.
-
kzer_AI (@kzer_ai) reported@OpenAI @linear @SlackHQ The agent that pulls context from docs, email, chats, and code to update your Linear ticket: "status: someone else's problem"
-
Bad **** (@TeaseTech) reported@thdxr @SlackHQ What's the problem?
-
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
-
MarketingMax.com (@MarketingMax) reportedI 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
-
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?
-
Krazed 🇵🇸 (@Krazed) reported@SlackHQ you have a degradation rn? unable to create channels and getting intermittent issues with events
-
Caro (@CarolinaLaLopez) reportedThe @SlackHQ glitch in notification numbers is killing my vibe this morning
-
Subrat Prasad (@humbledshuttler) reported@SlackHQ please fix huddles on android.
-
Georg S. Kuklick (@downtownberlin) reported@SlackHQ @linear Then fix your MCP server!
-
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?
-
Evis Drenova (@evisdrenova) reported@sbilstein @SlackHQ yeah to your earlier point i think it depends at what layer you want to attack it i.e. rust builds are slow, caching can help but github actions is trash for it, but blacksmith isn't bad, is there a generic solution you can use that *just works* on any CI? alternatively, go after the actual docker execution layer but not clear to me how much of a bottleneck that actually is vs. language specific idiosyncrasies buildkit is pretty optimized from what i've heard but i generally agree with make it fast and stupidly easy to use!
-
Q (@quionie) reported@thdxr @SlackHQ ohhh i’m so down for this because this would be MUCH better lol
-
Vortex (@mjparme) reported@SlackHQ why is there no obvious way to join a channel in Slack? Seems like a huge usability problem, the + sign next to channels creates a channel, but joining one is very elusive
-
Peter Dedene (@dedene) reported@tobi +1000 to this 🙌 Please @SlackHQ, we are practically begging for this fix at this point
-
Sophia Yen MD (@teenmd) reported.@SlackHQ Why don't you have human service agents? You are a GIANT company used by many. The only contact us is via a webform?
-
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 👀
-
Domino Mysłowski (@Domino_mys) reportedThere was Pay by Eye, by Ring, by Watch… time to Pay by Juice? 🧃💳 Okay, this one was just a joke created by Callum (FrostyTrollz). But 10 years ago, paying with your watch or ring also sounded ridiculous. A great example of how today’s joke can become tomorrow’s product is.. @SlackHQ The team behind Slack was actually building an online game called Glitch. As the founders later mentioned: “The game was absolutely preposterous.” Eventually, the game failed and was shut down. However, the internal chat tool they built to communicate became more valuable than the game itself. That tool became Slack, now used by millions of teams. 🌱 Follow for more wild growth-hacks
-
Josh Ellithorpe (@zquestz) reportedIt is very obvious that @SlackHQ does absolutely zero QA testing on Linux. You would think they would at least do a basic sanity test. Latest release has a completely broken system tray, and broken desktop icon. Glad I hardly use this crap anymore.
-
Teo Vanyo Adiputra (@teostealth) reported@karrisaarinen @SlackHQ The handoff from Slack discussion to actual tracked issue is where most teams drop the ball - keeping that loop tight is harder than it sounds.
-
Richard Casimir (@NWFreeZone) reported@xsupport @slackHQ X links on slack (android) Still not working. All other sites redirect properly from slack. Just NOT X.
-
Livleen Gill (@nutritogo) reported@SlackHQ - having a very difficult time with your product as a new customer. No help
-
Evgeny (@PlotnikovDev) reported@adilmania @SlackHQ What problem with slack? We use slack and discord.
-
miya (@202409R) reported@ManusAI @SlackHQ This kind of UX that charges users instantly without a clear confirmation step is unacceptable. @ManusAI please fix this and issue a refund. Users should NOT be charged $394 by mistake.
