-
LoopGantt (@loopgantt) reported@NotionHQ @SlackHQ Channel-scoped agents fix the biggest AI rollout blocker — broad access feels risky to admins. Smart default.
-
F. Fernández-Beltrán (@franferbel) reportedHey @SlackHQ — it’s been 3 days waiting for a response from your Help Center. For a platform that sells efficiency and seamless communication, this feels… ironic. Is this really the standard for customer support? 🤔
-
miya (@202409R) reported@ManusAI @SlackHQ This kind of UX that charges users instantly without a clear confirmation step is unacceptable. @ManusAI please fix this and issue a refund. Users should NOT be charged $394 by mistake.
-
Sen Yang (@undefined_blog) reportedour slack workspace has been deleted for no reason, no nofication nor verification, please reach out and help @SlackHQ
-
Mehmet Ali (@immehmetali) reported@SlackHQ Context is necessary but not sufficient. The real bottleneck is decision architecture: knowing when to retrieve, when to reason, and when to act. More context doesn't fix a broken agent loop.
-
harjot.co (@harjjotsinghh) reported@SlackHQ Microsoft's lock-in betrays what AI can't fix alone
-
Zev Zoldan (@ZevZoldan) reportedHot take for the AI founders knocking @SlackHQ: Slack doesn’t have a “communication problem.” Teams do. Most “ignored messages” aren’t about noise, attention spans, or channel chaos. It’s because Slack messages have zero structure. No timing. No follow-through. No visibility. Just text thrown into the void and a prayer. The second you add structure — forms, confirmations, simple logic — everything changes. People actually respond. Leaders stop guessing. Teams stop resending the same message 12 times. Slack doesn’t need fewer messages. It needs smarter ones. That’s what we’re building with @TryThreadly.

OsMessi_10 (@h2030_huna) reported@SlackHQ Hi , is there an issue with slack ? As our data there has been deleted and kept only some of data . What is the backup plan for these deleted data ?
-
Asif (@asifmghafoor) reportedHi @SlackHQ out workspace (Spacious) has been deleted by mistake - no notification or emails or anything. We need this restored with history. Can someone please help? We have sent several support requests over the past few hours and no one has responded
-
Fabian (@ffabbianr) reported@AmenaiSabuwala @SlackHQ This must be ragebait, right? You redesigned a Splash Screen into a login screen, those are separate things.
-
Tarwin Stroh-Spijer (@tarwin) reported@SlackHQ Please please fix it. How did this go out? It's not like it's even on random Windows laptop. It's a new Mac ! 90% of your engineers and testers probably use the same machine.
-
Dan Mazy (@danmazy1) reported@SlackHQ I’m the Primary Owner of my company workspace & completely locked out. Lost 2FA phone number + original email is dead. No backup codes. Submitted a ticket but need help ASAP — my team is stuck. Please DM me 🙏 #SlackSupport

HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported8a Back at my desk, getting eMail down to zero, loading the team up with today's website support and production in @SlackHQ.
-
Santosh | Google Ads Rescue for Ecom (@ScaleomX) reported@SlackHQ makes me miss a lot of messages, No notification even if I am marked @ Something is broken when you use it on both computer and phone. Anyone else facing this?
-
AI for Science (@AI_for_Science) reportedOur community slack channel with 1800 active members have been affected by the massive channel delete from Slack, we have tried to email them, call them but received no helpful support for a week. @SlackHQ Really appreciate if anyone could help bring our community back 🙏🙏🙏
-
Grok (@grok) reported@TheDavidYB @clickup @SlackHQ Interesting critique. ClickUp's Unlimited plan limits chat history to 90 days, per their help docs—upgrading to Business or higher unlocks unlimited access. This mirrors Slack's approach, creating tiered value from stored data. Users may see it as artificial gating; providers justify via storage costs and revenue strategy. What specific fix would you suggest?
-
Parker Chun (@parker_chun_) reportedIn all seriousness, would love some help debugging an issue @SlackAPI @SlackHQ
-
Kim Jämiä (@KimJamia) reportedHey @SlackHQ, can you please fix the recent list of reactions on Android? It doesn't make any sense how it works. It never shows any of the emojis I mostly use so I have to search them every time.

Satwick (@satiwick1) reportedHave spent 40 mins trying to change my old email to a new one on @SlackHQ to join a new shared channel. For every action @SlackHQ makes me login with 2-factor authentication & then never maintains state in the same browser window. And then I get locked out for too many logins!!!
