  • dhruvtv Dhruv Vemula (@dhruvtv) reported

    The most annoying thing about #slackdown is that the @SlackHQ clients are blissfully anaware and continue to try and load messages. Customers need to infer that it’s down by checking Twitter or asking around. May be add a healthcheck and a banner status? @slacksupport

  • therealsseadler shmeads (@therealsseadler) reported

    @SlackHQ is the only $26B software company that can have a major outage and users are genuinely happy

  • thisistrundel trundel the great (@thisistrundel) reported

    How does one even work with @SlackHQ down?!

  • kmcphillips Kevin McPhillips (@kmcphillips) reported

    I bet when @SlackHQ is down, the team at Slack uses IRC to communicate. Just to spite us.

  • jondmatthews Jon Matthews (@jondmatthews) reported

    @michealjwallace @SlackHQ I felt really bad when that one happened because we were on site in SJC getting an amazing tour but I was glued to my phone trying to figure out what was up and eventually nearly everyone in the group needed to go deal with the outage. I felt so bad for the person giving our tour

  • thespiciesttuna Lyndsie 🍣 (Tuna) (@thespiciesttuna) reported

    @bpeatman @SlackHQ it's not like the people at Slack caused this outage, they are doing what they can. Let's not blame them and let them do their work.

  • Courtyk23 CK (@Courtyk23) reported

    How am I supposed to get the latest work gossip with @SlackHQ down 🙄

  • ModusJesus Jay Garcia (@ModusJesus) reported

    @SlackHQ is down. Text Messages, Email, Zooms and phone calls are on the rise. :D

  • kinghuthman Huthman King (@kinghuthman) reported

    . @SlackHQ being down is weird. What did people do before this? Use emails and work in an office?

  • Garyw_ Gary Williams (@Garyw_) reported

    @AppSecBloke @SlackHQ I think there is something of a gallows humour over some stuff. What I don't agree with is when people start to insult a company over an outage. **** happens.

  • marcelrmz Marcel Ramirez (@marcelrmz) reported

    @SlackHQ is down, 2021 really?

  • hiteshkgupta Hitz (@hiteshkgupta) reported

    @SlackHQ is down..! Its time Slack should rely on @acceldataio - Observability platform.

  • pxmike2 pxmike (@pxmike2) reported

    @SlackHQ fix your problem; @salesforce - don't buy Slack, it sucks

  • builder_digital Eric Thomas, host of the Digital Builder podcast (@builder_digital) reported

    Anyone else have a mild chuckle when they discovered @SlackHQ was down upon logging in for work this morning?

  • Mr54Degen KMFR (@Mr54Degen) reported

    I love going back to work after 10’days off and the main source of communication, @SlackHQ is down... 🙄 woulda thought the bijillion dollar SF purchase woulda had a better experience for users .... guess not

  • tapkaro TapKaro (@tapkaro) reported

    @SlackHQ Not a problem, it happens. I ma a software engineer and I can feel the pain.

  • FlavaFrase92 Luke Fraser (@FlavaFrase92) reported

    @SlackHQ outage😕...making me miss all my custom integrations!

  • AppSecBloke Mike Thompson (@AppSecBloke) reported

    @Garyw_ @SlackHQ Yeah exactly. Outages are hilarious for some, except when it's your own service down. Happens to absolutely everyone at one time or another.

  • dvidsilva David Silva Ossa (@dvidsilva) reported

    When @SlackHQ is down how does slack slack to fix slack

  • slhzdh Kian Salehizadeh (@slhzdh) reported

    The good news is I don't need to worry about a @SlackHQ outage, as my wife can still easily yell at me from the first floor while I'm at the office.

  • diarun_002 Arun Dixit (@diarun_002) reported

    @SlackHQ @SlackStatus Neither people can stand if White House is down, nor you. Get well soon!

  • carlyvillareal Carly Villareal (@carlyvillareal) reported

    given that @SlackHQ is down this morning I think the only sensible thing to do is to just try again next Monday

  • zayjc peshengwengweng 💻💡🇬🇾🎧 (@zayjc) reported

    Slack not working on the first day back?! @SlackHQ get it together lol

  • theslinker Joseph☂Slinker (@theslinker) reported

    I'm suspicious that @SlackHQ is down intentionally to remind us all what life was like before it. 😱

  • RedWhite_Gooner Red White Gooner (@RedWhite_Gooner) reported

    @SlackHQ Unless it goes down and doesn’t work on the first day back from the festive period!

  • medwavebilling Medwave Billing & Credentialing (@medwavebilling) reported

    @SlackHQ Let me get this straight, the first day back for most workers and you're down? #slackdown "Customers may have trouble connecting or using Slack."

  • IsaacTheGameDev Isaac (@IsaacTheGameDev) reported

    @johhnyjohnson7 @SlackHQ They don't have to each second, you simply report the issue as it is when I occurs and done. The person updating the status page has nothing to do with finding the fix. I work on major websites for my day job and this definately is not the way to handle reporting on an outage.

  • marandasuedoney Maranda Doney (@marandasuedoney) reported
