@slackhq You do realise this will lead to sales cold calls, harassment, stalking between organisations? This is terrible

@davidwbarratt @SlackHQ This would help so much with letting a team know youre going to be on PTO if something happens during the night. I always feel weird sending a message at like 2am..

@javorszky @SlackHQ Oh no I didn't mean to imply that it solves the issue. But that is why I advised our admin to consider disabling it or at the very least closing DMs off to only approved business partners who would otherwise be added to our team or share a channel anyway.

I’m glad @SlackHQ moved fast to fix the DM preview text, but we’re there convos about this BEFORE launch? Was anyone in the room to raise its potential for harm? Did those in the room feel like they could? Reminds me so much of things I’ve learned from @sara_ann_marie

@44 I’d opened an issue with @SlackHQ support about disallowing more than one invite per workspace at the very least over a weird stalkerish inviter and they kept telling me they’d handle it without providing details. But they wanted me to fill out that support feedback though. 🤨🖕

@AshDHarrington @SlackHQ It is also absolutely NOT a good solution for client conversations. Rather than having good problem tracking and easy oversight like a ticketing system offers, it's a black hole, leading to much worse client experiences.

@ismascarade @engadget 3/ same business logic. The fact that all mobile apps are written in native code rather than something like electron which is a wrapper for web apps (slow for more complex stuff) means faster apps with lower memory usage. We use @SlackHQ and the desktop app is terrible. Slow and

@SlackHQ I’m glad we’re focusing on the real issues of inclusion in the workplace and not, you know, why in a free society I have to sell my life away for hours to the dollar. Herding around like some beast or burden so the boss can get a positive return.

@ingerhogstrom @SlackHQ maybe this is an underhanded way to force people to login to all those slacks they forgot about, to boost MAU

@ElleArmageddon @SlackHQ @carolinesinders Sometimes I ask myself if the people in those software enterprise have non-men in there. Because any woman/femme presenting at least will be talking about those harassment problems. It's not new and it's all over the world.

I'm already having someone on my security team looking into how we can lock this down because my employees will be exposed to so much abuse through this. Completely not okay @SlackHQ

(@bensmithuk) reported
@adam__harper @katebevan @SlackHQ It requires an invite to be sent and approved and can be turned off with a single tick-box (which I've just done). Don't like the 'default on' but it's taken me less than 10mins reading and admin to fix.

@KrauseFx @SlackHQ Not everyone is interested in spending time writing well-structured emails or documents. Me neither. The red badging is indeed an issue but that might not be on Slack. That’s unfortunately the standard of the industry.

@SlackHQ that they should come with better ways to nudge that some information should be taken down because you came across something sensitive.

@joshsusser @SlackHQ especially if working remotely with people you've never met in person, it feels so hard to have any sense of a team through Slack even though that's what it seems like the space should help with. for a communication tool it sure does a great job helping me feel disconnected

In 2021, absolutely ZERO features should be shipped to users of your product without first asking yourself, “How would/could terrible people abuse this feature in bad faith?” Failure to take this step is professional malfeasance. I have spoken, @SlackHQ.

@inkxel @SlackHQ Still doesn't solve the issue though. If the admin enables it for the team, the people being harassed in the team still don't have a way to protect themselves.

@raganwald @SlackHQ I think there is maybe a question whether you treat as a public safety issue with criminal negligence penalties. Should software be in a similar arena as pharma for example

You can fix it by going into flags, and setting "Force Color Profile" to sRGB, but because it's a Chomium-in-Linux thing, @electronjs apps like @SlackHQ and @discord suffer from this color shift... and I don't know how to fix that.

(@nicolasdular) reported
@KrauseFx @SlackHQ For me the problem is that Slack is a stream of information vs email or issues are a list of information. I need to be conscious when reading slack. Once a message is read, going back and finding a message again is harder. Lists can be structure and filterted though.

@ETTD18 @wiczipedia @SlackHQ I think every service should at the very least have an option to use a whitelist for content delivery. IE : If this content came from ANYONE but this list of people, I don't want to see it, ever.

@pierce I honestly cannot decide if this is a terrible idea or the most terrible idea @SlackHQ could possibly have without violating the law. It's certainly on the shortlist.
