    @SlackHQ hey. I’m having some issues with my app and even opening on desktop. I cannot open the app or desktop app on my wifi network. It only opens when I use my mobile data. Even on desktop browser it opens only when I connect through VPN. What’s happening?

    @SlackHQ Hey ! Why does slack says my device is jail broken after I updated to iOS 16 public beta?

    This new slack update is so bad man especially with the dark mode. I have so much trouble noticing/tracking if someone has mentioned me or its just a normal message. @SlackHQ

    Hello @SlackHQ , slack doesn't work anymore on ubuntu 20.04 + with version 4.27.154. Do you have a fix planned for this?

    @SlackHQ Hello. I have no problems downloading several files at the same time. The problem is that I can’t transfer several photos at the same time. In addition, no error message is displayed. I use a Samsung A11 but I have colleagues who use Iphones.

    @brenthealy @BringBackEV @SlackHQ What? It definitely fixed my issue at the time. Nobody said anything about fixing culture and I even said I'm not there anymore so what are you on about?

  • dillon_andrew_
    Dillon Andrew (@dillon_andrew_) reported

    @SlackHQ hey thanks for the reply. it's actually happening on both. no luck with my desktop app and these directions. I even tried full re install and resetting data in teh help section

    @SlackHQ can you please fix your GIF functionality? When I know the perfect GIF response I have to shuffle and hope the right GIF magically appears? Ridiculous

    Hi @SlackHQ! I've been having issues with my notifications since I updated my phone to Android 12. I've tried clearing my cache, changing my notification settings etc. but to no avail; my notifs kept arriving late & would only show if I open the app. What should I do? 🥲

  • So0akland
    Captain Cardigan (@So0akland) reported

    @SlackHQ Is there an issue sending messages right now? The Status page is green but most messages are failing to send for our team right now. Same behaviour from the Web App, Desktop App + Mobile App(iOS) Can you take a look? 🙏

  • JosvdWest
    Jos van der Westhuizen (@JosvdWest) reported

    @Jobvo @SlackHQ @NotionHQ Could not agree more. We've started running into the issue of too many messages in public channels. Any advice for dealing with the flood of information?

    @SlackHQ my notifications are not coming through... my preferences have all been switched on but still no luck. I have tried the desktop version and web version. Any advice that may help?

  • david_obrien
    David O'Brien (he/him) (@david_obrien) reported

    @SlackHQ do other people report issues with the app on Android? I do get notifications or even the dot next to a Slack account, but almost every time I have to force quit the app before it'll actually show me the message.

  • zuccsleftnut
    Ay Makarena (@zuccsleftnut) reported

    @SlackHQ It doesn’t work. When I try to open the url it just says “having trouble connecting”. And in my ios app I appear offline and can’t set myself as active or send/receive any messages. The desktop version works only when I’m using VPN and mobile app only on my data.

    @JWLevitt Totally get that. Any software Microsoft builds is full memory leaks and tends to slow down your computer like hell (esp. if you’re on MacOS). @SlackHQ is by far more superior — would recommend switiching 🙃

  • HireBlackPpl

    @SlackHQ y'all restricting slack connect channel guests to only paid users is terrible.

  • sarjnarw
    Sarjan Narwan (@sarjnarw) reported

    @SlackHQ There's an issue with the Snap store (Ubuntu) version not starting. `/bin/bash: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (en_US.utf-8)`

  • mbootsman

    @SlackHQ when I want to set a reminder for next week, I expect a reminder in 7 days, not on the Monday of coming week. Can you please fix this?

  • haripittar
    Hari B Kurup (@haripittar) reported

    @SlackHQ launched slack on Windows 10 but the GUI just wouldn’t appear. Uninstalled and reinstalled the latest version but that doesn’t help either. What’s the solution?

  • meatfromspace
    Meat from Space (@meatfromspace) reported

    @SlackHQ Any downtime reports? We have problems sending messages or missing notifications about failed sent messages here. Logs show a lot of "Permission request denied"

  • mustonen_jussi
    Jussi Mustonen (@mustonen_jussi) reported

    @SlackHQ Ok, done the test run 👍 I assume one run is enough, or should I do it on all the workspaces I'm having problems with? And yeah, will try uninstall + reinstall as the next step

  • willie
    Willie Abrams (@willie) reported

    @SlackHQ I’ve already reported the bug to you here, followed some suggestions, and previously attached a screen recording of it in action. What more do you need from me to file a bug report? Restarting Slack clears it, but it’s still a bug I assume you would want to fix.

    So @SlackHQ is having issues?

  • treerao
    Ramana Rao 🌶️🌿 (@treerao) reported

    Hey @SlackHQ it'd be nice if like discord, I could s/<a>/<b> to quickly fix the last message sent ... or hey twitter friends, is that a feature somehow already that I've missed? #DeveloperJoy

  • mustonen_jussi
    Jussi Mustonen (@mustonen_jussi) reported

    Hey @SlackHQ - what's up with Android client continuously missing (lots of) messages? Using the reset cache functionality helps with the issue, but it's rather annoying to keep on doing it almost daily, or in the worst case even multiple times a day 😞

  • DamianTBrown
    damian brown (@DamianTBrown) reported

    @SlackHQ is there an outage?

  • zuccsleftnut

    @SlackHQ Bruh. Fix the bugs you already have before rolling out new features.
