    @trq212 Please @SlackHQ help us. I’m so tired of telling ppl to download. I’ve now started making videos of the html files and then sharing file as well lol

    6a Getting eMail down to zero, loading up the team is @SlackHQ. Planning the day, so I can work the plan.

    .@SlackHQ this message pops whenever i try to do any navigation. persists across restarts. also please fix the search results ↓ keypress issue, the first ↓ is being eaten by the system so when I am moving fast I am constantly going to the wrong place you need to make sure bugs like this dont continue, you have serious competition coming that is going to take business from you if you continue to let your product rot.

    @tobi +1000 to this 🙌 Please @SlackHQ, we are practically begging for this fix at this point

    @SlackHQ What are the chances we can cut down the number of clicks to start a huddle from four to say… one? Driving me crazy. 🙏🏻

    @SlackHQ you guys are mental. You barely warn your users about migration and delete 20% of your slack active orgs without repeated warnings? You guys think everyone reads your cute email newsletters? What about BIG RED WARNINGS daily on the slack app itself? Ridiculous. Please help us get our accounts back.

    I 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

    @SlackHQ @vercel debugging a broken deployment directly from a chat thread is actually beautiful.

  • kurushdubash

    @SlackHQ can you please revert your most recent update, it is so bad. This is terrible for anyone who is inbox 0. Please don't make me use Teams

  • grinich
    Michael Grinich (@grinich) reported

    @SlackHQ Please fix the rate limits. The current Slack API is practically useless since you reduced them.

    @adilmania @SlackHQ what's wrong with slack. bunch of alternatives. each one made money. slack is still stable and useful. i don't have any issue with slakc except limited message history for free users

    [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.

  • hollowvox
    Jose Urquiza (@hollowvox) reported

    We're about to start letting our employees fix their own bugs with @v0 and @SlackHQ. Why report a bug to another system when you can send it straight to v0? All I have to do is review the PR and merge it in. So confident in the models and the platform that I can go hands off.

  • aguscruiz
    Agustín Ruiz (@aguscruiz) reported

    Hi @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 🫶

    There 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

  • pizzaboy

    @karrisaarinen @SlackHQ Hey @karrisaarinen are the new project slack channels scoped to just that project I.e if you use the Linear slack bot in the channel will it only have access to issues and data from that project? I found that to be an issue a couple of months ago that the bot wasn’t able to be scoped down? Or was this a skill issue on my end

    @Cal_Irvine @thdxr @SlackHQ threads are terrible

  • antonioventre_
    Antonio Ventre (@antonioventre_) reported

    A lot of companies in Hong Kong today got kicked out from shared @SlackHQ channels with clients etc However, Slack sent multiple emails to everyone back in February to move to Alibaba Cloud We did the migration in March, for 2 of our companies, and forced to do yearly plans (can’t do monthly subs with Alibaba Cloud) No major issues faced, apart from the fact that we doubled paid, since after the yearly payment they charged monthly again (but said that they will refund) If anyone has problems DM me, I have direct phone access with a representative and could fix this potentially asap

  • digitalandreas
    Andreas Elia (@digitalandreas) reported

    @johnbarker @SlackHQ Doesn't feel like they are. We've had a bunch of pre-existing issues for a while now (I replied to the other fella in the tweet with examples).

  • karrisaarinen
    Karri Saarinen (@karrisaarinen) reported

    @gustaf @ycombinator @SlackHQ I’d say Slack. Haven’t really experienced those issues you mention. Unless my internet is very bad. iMessage/whatsapp overly phone and counterparty focused so I’m more often wondering if the message actually got delivered or not and if the problem is me or them. Slack is more of a server and it doesn’t send the message if it doesn’t work.

  • Oxymarun_
    Arun Sharma (@Oxymarun_) reported

    @SlackHQ came out of a failing 10-person game studio the team needed a way to coordinate that wasn't email they built it for themselves then realized every distributed team on earth had the same problem

  • edweirdsnowman

    @SlackHQ slack huddles has had video audio sync issues since it’s been launched. Please deploy at least 7 agents to fix this immediately.

  • jorilallo
    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

    @SlackHQ One recent Slack regression: If you edit a post that contains a link, the link preview disappears. Please fix this 🙏
