Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • mhaithaca Mark H. Anbinder (@mhaithaca) reported

    @SlackHQ OK, thanks for the responses. I urge you to fix this. It's a massively spammy feature that as individual users we should be able to prevent from interrupting us.

  • tlhunter Thomas Hunter II (@tlhunter) reported

    My work laptop just dumped core and I got kicked out to a virtual terminal. The final error message was that @SlackHQ had consume all available memory. 16GB, to answer your next question.

  • xdr2k RK (@xdr2k) reported

    @SamLoci @SlackHQ only and wisest way to brush-off this problem - mark as spam

  • horseyfeelings horseyfeelings (@horseyfeelings) reported

    @SlackHQ I get that. Problem is I don't have a control over my colleague's slack preferences. Ask is - a mechanism to not notify them but to make it visible once they open their slack app in full view.

  • mbc_complains amateur surgeon (@mbc_complains) reported

    @SlackHQ the iOS app takes about ten seconds to switch between teams now, please fix

  • mattmutz Matt Mutz (@mattmutz) reported

    I just received excellent customer service from @SlackHQ. Best customer support in tech

  • SlashG0 SlashG (@SlashG0) reported

    Remote work challenges today: 1. @WhatsApp down 2. @SlackHQ not sending notifications (no clue why) 3. Powercuts left right and center thanks to thunderstorms

  • mbc_complains amateur surgeon (@mbc_complains) reported

    @SlackHQ Why does the slack web app refresh itself right after loading? its kind of annoying is there something I can do to fix that

  • gnumoksha cat /dev/urandom (@gnumoksha) reported

    @SlackHQ Before that the issue was I receiving notifications for messages I already saw on the computer.

  • IrregularExpr Ben Woodford (@IrregularExpr) reported

    @SlackHQ Can they fix the WYSIWYG while they’re at it? 👀 Show the markdown and the formatting so it’s clear where it starts and ends. It’s very easy to end up with formatting carrying on past where it’s wanted Discord does it that way (not hiding the markdown) and it’s way better

  • jmitch Justin Mitchell 👋 (@jmitch) reported

    @patrickmast @yac @SlackHQ Oh hey good catch! It’s trying to load the desktop class video and iOS won’t let it. Silly Apple keeps calling iPads computers. Will fix!

  • HappySinger Dave The Happy Singer (@HappySinger) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @SlackHQ Well mention it to your ***. I don't want to overcomplicate the UI and using headphones solves the specific issue. But if you can nail the UX, it could be handy.

  • palaueb Marc Palau (@palaueb) reported

    @SlackHQ You messed up A LOT today with that 'Slack Connect' thing. Macos version is freezing and hanging randomly. I've spent too much time today rebooting your buggy software. Please fix it.

  • Jaywalker Justin Williams (@Jaywalker) reported

    @pimskeks @SlackHQ Sure that’s part of the problem, but my big issue is GUI in the first place. I keep my touchpad disabled most of the time because I don’t need a mouse for most all of my programs. I can’t put vim keybindings on top of slack, even if they did use native UI

  • EvanDotPro Evan Coury (@EvanDotPro) reported

    I. Hate. @SlackHQ. (Android) Notification. (un)Reliability. I hate it so, so, so f'ing much. Please fix it. PLEASE. It is seriously, seriously impacting me professionally.

  • ZSpinker ZJ Spinker (@ZSpinker) reported

    @SlackHQ Better navigation in Search/selection boxes so I don’t have to use arrow keys. I want to move the selection up and down with ctrl-j/k/n/p. There are lots of standard key conventions like this that slack doesn’t respect. @linear does a very good job of this.

  • kuwverdant Verdant Julius for SGA President (@kuwverdant) reported

    @lavishlance @SlackHQ We saw the importance of communication, and decided to address this root cause of the issue through implementation of a policy that enforces accountability in a number a ways.

  • ihearttheroad Dr. Jessica Morrison (@ihearttheroad) reported

    Hi @SlackHQ! Colleague hit me with an issue I hadn't seen before this AM. Are Drafts platform specific? She saved a draft on her laptop last night, intending to send it from her phone this morning, but it doesn't appear on her phone. I tested from two devices, same! Expected?

  • mkennedy Michael Kennedy (@mkennedy) reported

    1/2: Hey @SlackHQ, every interaction I have with your login / account system leaves me confused, frustrated, and perplexed on why it has to be SO complicated. Why not an account for me which has access to different communities?

  • isotopp Kristian Köhntopp (@isotopp) reported

    @SlackHQ I think without restricting channels to individual channels or groups of channels, it's a pretty annoying and useless feature. There's currently some 3000 channels in our enterprise grid, and anything global is just bound to be broken.

  • pimskeks Nikias Bassen (@pimskeks) reported

    @Jaywalker @SlackHQ The actual problem with @SlackHQ (and many other desktop "apps") is Electron. Can't they get developers that write native UIs anymore?

  • c_cburn Cburn (@c_cburn) reported

    @SlackHQ I mean for a messing app. Making sure I get the messages is kind of table stakes.............. Email, text, hangouts 0 problems............

  • SabTdj SABRINA Tdj (@SabTdj) reported

    Hi @SlackHQ Randomcoffees is been down since a month, could you please troubleshoot the bug and keep me updated? Please, find below a screenshot with user message:

  • gnumoksha cat /dev/urandom (@gnumoksha) reported

    Have you noticed how bad @SlackHQ for Android is? I mean, they have notifications issues that last for months (or years?).

  • gusworldau Angus Kidman (@gusworldau) reported

    Hey @SlackHQ I'm totally over the Android client showing new messages alerts but not showing the actual new message without repeated force close/reloads. Will this ever get fixed? Been a problem for at least a year. Thanks. (Yes, I'm up to date with client before you ask.)

  • ChucKN0risK Louis Chenais (@ChucKN0risK) reported

    @raunofreiberg @SlackHQ It looks like the same feature Google Docs is doing to help users preview links.

  • gnumoksha cat /dev/urandom (@gnumoksha) reported

    @SlackHQ The issue is that sometimes someone sends me a message, slack shows the red circle with the 1, but when I click on it, I can't see the message

  • bmorefriendly sam (@bmorefriendly) reported

    ill reprogram my mind just in time for @SlackHQ to fix their cut/paste bug

  • ArtemR Artem Russakovskii (@ArtemR) reported

    @Summerson @RDRv3 Yeah, it's broken in so many ways. The first time you tap a @SlackHQ notification on Android, it just opens the app and doesn't jump to the right place. And you've already lost the notification so now you have to manually find the mention.

  • kkmett Keith Kmett (@kkmett) reported from West Des Moines, Iowa

    Hey team @SlackHQ did you know your iOS crashes if you go to a channels notifications section? Maybe it’s just me but it’s consistently crashing. Thanks in advanced for the help!
