    Does anyone else worry when they wake up to no new @SlackHQ messages that Slack is down again?

    Is anyone else experiencing major issues with @zoom_us @MicrosoftTeams and @SlackHQ Many people I know and I are experiencing problems, but we’re all on different networks, locations, providers,...

    @SlackHQ your webapp is a bit of a hassle on desktop. I can't just open a workspace, I have to wait for it to fail to open the desktop app then click a link. Can you please fix this? (I'm not going to install the desktop app)

    @_Jordan @SlackHQ hopefully not, they had a square one on mac for a while iirc and it was terrible.

  • sjGoring
    Simon Goring (@sjGoring) reported

    I'm struggling with my emails, and responding in an appropriate time. @SlackHQ has been a big help in managing my tasks, but even that feels busy right now. I'm getting emails reminding me that I need to reply to the first email, and I feel like I can't even focus on those.

  • LieletteCalleja
    Lielette Calleja (@LieletteCalleja) reported

    I can't believe I can't switch organisations on my @MicrosoftTeams app on my computer like I can on my iphone. The workaround is use a browser+desktop app. Surely there is a fix in the near future to compete against @SlackHQ - I love Teams but I need this functionality now.

    Rafael Fischmann (@rfischmann) reported

    @SlackHQ is buggy to open macOS’ emoji popover using Control + Command + space bar, it only shows up if we switch to another app and then come back to Slack. Are you guys aware of this issue?

  • kyletaylored
    Kyle Taylor 🎄 (@kyletaylored) reported

    @SlackHQ @onemorepash @maroulis Still seeing this bug as well. Honestly the main problem is that I would expect that tapping the exclamation mark would show me a list of messages failed to send, but it doesn't and it's pretty much impossible to go back and find it after even a day.

    @SlackHQ my photos and gifs still won’t load. Is this a system wide problem? I re-installed, clearer cache, etc. thanks!

    Hey @SlackHQ your iOS client stops video after a couple of minutes. iOS 14.4, iPhone 11 Pro. No issues with wifi, just the camera video becomes stationary.

    @AndyManganelli @SlackHQ I've been having the exact same issue! Just didn't know why I kept suddenly jumping to DMs!

    All my devices are ringing. I feel like a call center @SlackHQ please fix the call service in your app.

  • willie
    Willie Abrams (@willie) reported from Searcy, Arkansas

    @SlackHQ Slack on Mac, direct download. This problem is ongoing. Open slack on desktop, view through All Unreads. Close. Open slack on laptop, most of the Unreads from the desktop are still unread there. I expect it to sync my reads.

  • assalino
    Andre Assalino (@assalino) reported

    @SlackHQ Not sure if you're aware, but with the latest update, whenever I share my screen my mic stops working after a few seconds. I have to go into the call settings and change the source of the mic and back again, then it works once more. Can you help?

  • lookitsholly
    Holly (@lookitsholly) reported

    @SlackHQ within the past couple days, any images sent on my Slack channels appear blurry and I can’t click to see a larger image. I’m on iPhone 12. Tried resetting my phone, clearing the cache (both within the app and through settings). Any ideas how to fix?

  • JacobWaaters
    Jacob Waters (@JacobWaaters) reported

    @SlackHQ the Slack OSX app is just a black screen this morning, any idea when this will be resolved, was working fine fine at 2am, yes I was working that late. Checked at 8am today and it's not working GMT time.

  • milindalvares

    @SlackHQ anyone reported issues with displaying images on mobile? My iOS slack doesn’t get past the blurry preloaded images. Not a connection issue.

    @ecomchasedimond Had to remind myself of this the last week.... Internet at both our home and work offices went down for two days and then we lost power at home this weekend and let me say, managing a team + clients through @SlackHQ and @asana from an iPhone is a wild ride.

    @SlackHQ is there a problem uploading attachments on windows app? Haven't been able to for 2 days and can't see attachments others are sending

    Need help with a @SlackHQ / Google Sheets workflow. When I "Select a Spreadsheet Row," what is "Define a cell value," what's it looking for there? Can I enter a specific cell to pull data from?

  • rosstimson
    rosstimson@bsd.network (@rosstimson) reported

    I currently have a weird issue in @SlackHQ where all screenshots/pics posted show up extremely blurry, I cannot see them at all other than knowing something is meant to be there. I also cannot send any pics or attachments, they go straight to drafts instead. Very annoying. 🤬

    @SlackHQ hey guys links are broken on slack. Is there fix or way to turn off meta data thing it’s causing big issues with dev urls. Sometimes it’s just crashing out. Please fix ASAP it’s blocking me from work. #failure #urls #slack

    @SlackHQ I just double-checked by going through a VPN on the same connection and it works perfectly, so it seems my connection has enough bandwidth, I suspect a routing error at my ISP.

  • dtupper
    tupper (@dtupper) reported

    @ProbablePrime @SlackHQ @WatchMixer Right now I'm using "ta-da" and its... okay. I can feel it failing, tho. Interestingly, I have the same issue with default Android sounds. Some of them I associate with pretty awful periods in life. I'm not normally an anxious person at all but man some of those will set me OFF.

    Dearest @SlackHQ team - I love your OS tool, but, your app in iOS 14.4 is quite glitchy. Can't type quick as it crashes, can't receive calls, etc. Please help! 🆘

  • nicolealman

    @SlackHQ hi guys, I've got a Huawei phone which slack isnt available on, which wouldn't be an issue if I could log into the web version of slack, but it just keeps redirecting me to an app download page. Is there a url I can use that would bypass this?

  • fmeyer
    Fernando Meyer (@fmeyer) reported

    Alternatively one could train a model with existing company literature, but that's where the problem starts :) - No sane company will likely be open to share secrets openly and @SlackHQ would probably kill the attempt to avoid competition
