  @KhalidWarsa @SlackHQ Because each workspace has own login. Even if you login on one device. You cannot sync all those workspaces under one account on another device

  .@SlackHQ Why don't you have human service agents? You are a GIANT company used by many. The only contact us is via a webform?

  It is very obvious that @SlackHQ does absolutely zero QA testing on Linux. You would think they would at least do a basic sanity test. Latest release has a completely broken system tray, and broken desktop icon. Glad I hardly use this crap anymore.

  @samlambert @joshmgross It’s almost impossible to mention a bug in Slack and get anyone at @SlackHQ to fix it.

  @AgentAkki @SlackHQ Restarting doesn't help, and I mentioned this in the dms, it seems so weird to basically have 2 dm lists.

  @tobi +1000 to this 🙌 Please @SlackHQ, we are practically begging for this fix at this point

  @SlackHQ are you guys shutting down? It’s been more than a week I’ve been contacting you guys. Support isn’t responding at all

  i shipped a report that posted a PDF to @SlackHQ with buttons to approve or flag it. worked great in testing. turns out every single report was re-sharing the exact same file. Next.js had cached the upload URL on the first request and just kept reusing it. so every property got the same PDF. same charts. same data. looked fine in the message. was completely wrong. the fix was straightforward once i saw it. but i only saw it because i added logging on the upload path and watched what Slack was actually returning. without that i would have kept assuming the reports were right. this is the thing that keeps biting me. i build something, it posts, the message looks correct, and i ship it. but "the message looks correct" is not the same as "the data is correct". i need the system to surface the difference, not just tell me a message was sent. the reports now work the way they were supposed to. one message per property, each with its own PDF, two models reading it and leaving grades in the thread. the buttons are how you reply to the report, not how you open it. but i almost shipped a monitoring system that was monitoring nothing. it was just confidently showing me the same snapshot on repeat. what is the dumbest caching bug you have hit in ****?

  @SlackHQ @SlackHQ cute, but can you fix the "copying emojis from slack to somewhere else please"

  7:30a Getting eMail down to zero, passing out assignments in @SlackHQ

  @hiiinternet @SlackHQ It’s a big problem actually

  It's from 2011, but I still miss Glitch. It was a browser based MMO based on collecting and crafting. Crazily enough it was made by the company that went on to rebrand and make @SlackHQ. The messaging system in the game became the basis for Slack.

  as much hate @MicrosoftTeams gets, at least the meeting chat and other chats are on the same platform. Absence of synergy between @SlackHQ chat and Google meet is such a pet peeve. Non issue in grand scheme but still bothering whenever people send links in gmeet.

  6a Getting eMail down to zero, loading up the team is @SlackHQ. Planning the day, so I can work the plan.

  @pizzaboy @karrisaarinen @SlackHQ It's still the same agent with capability to access everything as the caller user can. If you're calling it in the channel, it has that as context so it will file issue into the project by default and answer questions about the project without you needing to name it separately. If there's situatons where it's not working as intended, would love to get screenshots

  @cyberomin @digitalandreas @SlackHQ If you've filed a bug with them on the last 5 years and arent a big co then you'd know. They dont fix stuff just because it's broken.

  @NotionHQ @SlackHQ Channel-scoped agents fix the biggest AI rollout blocker — broad access feels risky to admins. Smart default.

  Björne 🇸🇪🏋️‍♂️ (@SilchQuatch) reported 41 minutes ago

  @QuinnyPig @SlackHQ Every single unwarranted notification births months of hate inside of me. Literally anti-ads for me, any pattern of it and I immediately remove the service. I guess it has to work or it wouldn't be done?

  slack going down for 30 minutes was like the apocalypse for tech startups @SlackHQ PLEASE dont scare me like that again

  @gabsmashh Once nearly turned down a job interview because the invite came through @MicrosoftTeams. Spent the whole call trying to casually work out if they used @SlackHQ instead. They did.

  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

• 
  Amanda (@hey_amandam) reported 48 minutes ago

  @TejasKumar_ @SlackHQ Yes 👏 The issue with this (and all things like it) for me is that there seems to be some idea that anyone sees "AI" and immediately associates that with some value. What user pain of mine are you solving? I literally do not care if you are using AI or not to solve it, I just want the best experience. Explore AI as a cta is a waste of space and my mental energy

  @gustaf @ycombinator @SlackHQ What is degrading? WhatsApp imo is not a good example. Can’t even hold login on a desktop, and have to auth with your phone. Sync not super reliable either

• 
  Vortex (@mjparme) reported 54 minutes ago

  @SlackHQ why is there no obvious way to join a channel in Slack? Seems like a huge usability problem, the + sign next to channels creates a channel, but joining one is very elusive

• 
  Brandon Karl Webster (@bkwebster) reported 57 minutes ago

  @adilmania @SlackHQ Better alternatives exist - it’s used abundantly because of the mindshare and scale. The only replacement would be a totally new and obvious form factor that leads to the same outcome in a better way - not a better alternative to the same problem.

  Hi @SlackHQ, can you please fix this notification dot issue? It's been bothering me for like a month or more already. It shows that I have something unread when I don't. Even hovering on it makes the dot go away when there's something unread. It's very annoying for people with "unread anxiety" like me lol. Thank you 🫶
