    @SlackHQ Tell me why Slack desktop is not working on Ubuntu 26.04 ( Resolute Raccoon ) ??? Honestly i have tried o #Ubuntu

  • FredsDaily

    @SlackHQ I've sent a message in via the feedback address, but for 4.50.136 either there's been an undisclosed change of GPG keys used in signing Linux packages or the wrong key was used accidentally. For environments with strict package verification this leads to install errors.

    @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

  • MarketingMax
    MarketingMax.com (@MarketingMax) reported

    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

    @dabit3 @SlackHQ Building software entirely inside Slack sounds like a recipe for turning every bug fix into a group chat debate.

    @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

    @peduarte Yes @SlackHQ messed something up recently. Search is terrible now.

    6:30a Back at the home office. Getting eMail down to zero. Planning the day so I can work out the plan. Passing work into @SlackHQ.

  • SivvyRat
    Travis Peters (@SivvyRat) reported

    @SlackHQ You have no way to provide feedback within your app so... your snap installer has major issues.

  • mutru
    Otto Hilska (@mutru) reported

    @SlackHQ The new Activity view is an amazing improvement. One thing that would make it better: the same thread can appear multiple times (for example the original post and a reply). It would help to allow deduplicating threads from the list.

  • Watching1776
    TheHardTruth (@Watching1776) reported

    @SlackHQ You need to fix that app so it stops putting people into Auto Silence repeatedly without touching anything. Your code is trash

    liking the new slack activity view—still getting used to it. One thing: it doesn’t respect the “Just display names” setting. Is a fix coming? 👀 @SlackHQ

    @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 👀

    Peter Garber (@petegarber) reported

    @Cartidise @OutofGalaxyy The icons might be stupid here but Gchat works pretty well inside of Gmail and this UI actually is OK. The only problem is that Gchat should literally be able to replace @SlackHQ but it’s been ignored.

Direct reports are submitted by visitors. Locations may be estimated from their connection or supplied by the reporter. A low local count does not establish that service is working; the service-wide status and local report totals describe different areas. How our outage detection works
