Slack Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Fluorine (@FluorineHQ) reported@gustaf @SlackHQ Reliability is the floor, not the ceiling. Slack hit the floor and is now adding notification noise to mask it — classic engagement-metric trap. The deeper issue: messaging apps stopped being where work happens and became where work gets talked about. That's the gap worth solving.
-
April Underwood (@aunder) reportedIn this day and age of infosec threats, this subject line from @SlackHQ is a bad call. After the brief cortisol spike that someone using the name Miles Davis had joined our Slack, I scrolled down, and then just wondered why on earth I would want this in my work communication tool.
-
Code Guru 🌞 (@hicodeguru) reportedhey @SlackHQ even after an year this issue still there i cant hear voice of joined person - he drops it and then rejoin - now it works and the new ui for start hudle - not good, extra clicks :( sometime i forgot to actually start

mayberaigan (@mayberayyy) reported@SlackHQ your app notifications are glitching, please fix it
-
noah (@noahsolomon) reported@hiiinternet @SlackHQ It’s a big problem actually
-
Jose Urquiza (@hollowvox) reportedWe'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.
-
Awais alwaisy (@alvaisy) reported@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
-
Lalbee (@rebeurebel) reported@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.
-
Peter Dedene (@dedene) reported@tobi +1000 to this 🙌 Please @SlackHQ, we are practically begging for this fix at this point
-
Subrat Prasad (@humbledshuttler) reported@SlackHQ please fix huddles on android.
-
HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported7a Planning out the day in Google Calendar and loading the team in @SlackHQ. Getting email down to zero.
-
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
-
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
-
Rohit Kashyap | AI + Full-Stack (@rohit_jsfreaky) reported@purionx @SlackHQ @salesforce tables in slack would genuinely help, wild that it took this long to even be a request
-
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
-
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"
-
Jason Alco (@jason_alco) reported@SlackHQ Our team loves the platform, but we really need to fix the mark unread feature. It’s been broken for years now. First, you should be able to mark a channel as unread without opening the channel and selecting a message. Second, half the time marking a message as unread doesn’t work. I have to go message by message, trying over and over until one works. Please fix this, thank you 🫠
-
TT 😋 (@MotivatingPeng) reported@OpenAIDevs @googledrive @SlackHQ Can we fix Codex.... When it does a context automatically compacted it stops what its doing
-
LoopGantt (@loopgantt) reported@NotionHQ @SlackHQ Channel-scoped agents fix the biggest AI rollout blocker — broad access feels risky to admins. Smart default.
-
New Chapter Reprise Inigo Montoya (@BelmontJockey) reportedAVOID using @SlackHQ at all costs. The UI is TERRIBLE. I get random notifications under "Activity" and it is impossible to find. So there is a red bubble notification that will never goes away. It happens all of the time. FREAKING TERRIBLE! Impossible to track down.

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.
