    @SlackHQ slack huddles has had video audio sync issues since it’s been launched. Please deploy at least 7 agents to fix this immediately.

    @SlackHQ there’s a widespread issue with slack today. Not sure about Mac but my entire team with windows seems to be impacted. Slack becomes irresponsive on windows a few minutes in. Tried ‘repair’ and force close, but no help there. We are using app in our phones to communicate.

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

  • YukanL
    Ken Liao (@YukanL) reported

    It's been almost 2 days since @SlackHQ deleted our company workspace without warning. Aside from a vague email a few months ago about migrating to a different reseller in our region, there was no communication at all leading up to the deletion. Support only responds with the same message template telling us to reach out to sales and hasn't responded to followups since yesterday. Some of the worst SaaS customer service I've ever experienced. What are the best alternatives to Slack?

    .@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?

    @SlackHQ issues connecting to a new workspace. Where can I get support?

    @yongfook Weird you had some many issues. My last few have gone really well. The most annoying app is @SlackHQ which sucks as it makes you log into each space again. Hopefully your next one goes better!

    Cmon @SlackHQ help the tfr

    A lot of companies in Hong Kong today got kicked out from shared @SlackHQ channels with clients etc However, Slack sent multiple emails to everyone back in February to move to Alibaba Cloud We did the migration in March, for 2 of our companies, and forced to do yearly plans (can’t do monthly subs with Alibaba Cloud) No major issues faced, apart from the fact that we doubled paid, since after the yearly payment they charged monthly again (but said that they will refund) If anyone has problems DM me, I have direct phone access with a representative and could fix this potentially asap

    @SlackHQ @dorukkavcioglu I miss the old glitch game, had fun with some of your old founders in that :(

    @RTFern @SlackHQ Sorry about that, Ryan! I work at slack. Tell me more about what’s not working for you?

    @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.

    @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.

  • CarolinaLaLopez

    The @SlackHQ glitch in notification numbers is killing my vibe this morning

  • YouPulseX
    Paul Sant · Telecodex (@YouPulseX) reported

    @pizzaboy @karrisaarinen @SlackHQ Then "project channel" is a default, not a scope. The issue list command still follows the caller's workspace visibility.

  • Manoj____Yadav
    Manoj Yadav (@Manoj____Yadav) reported

    @TheNickBigar @CricTalk29 @SlackHQ No it doesn’t track time, you need to tell the time spent via message. Example- worked on X for 30 mins - remind me about checking the production issue around 3 pm The idea is to reduce friction for users on how they track time and tasks

    @hiiinternet @SlackHQ It’s a big problem actually

  • RobSwish
    Rob Swift (@RobSwish) reported

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

  • RyanDMeyer
    RyanMeyer (@RyanDMeyer) reported

    @jedcli @SlackHQ HK company, US billing. suddenly shut off and Slack has zero customer service. No phone number, no live chat, nothing... submit an email and wait and pray apparently. What ********.

  • takshshahh
    Taksh Shah (@takshshahh) reported

    Someone at @SlackHQ needs to fix how they deal with markdown. Its markdown but not really? Pasting stuff from elsewhere sometimes preserves formatting, sometimes doesnt? I had to do workarounds when working with API, but pasting content from claude in the messagebox is terrible

  • quionie

    @thdxr @SlackHQ ohhh i’m so down for this because this would be MUCH better lol

  • grinich
    Michael Grinich (@grinich) reported

    @SlackHQ Please fix the rate limits. The current Slack API is practically useless since you reduced them.

  • IncredibleTrade

    Is @SlackHQ mobile app down?

  • arashdehkordiHQ
    Ari Dehkordi (@arashdehkordiHQ) reported

    @karrisaarinen @SlackHQ Did Linear do this before agents? I tried project-level Slack channels at my org and found it works for enterprise engagements nicely, but breaks down at feature/epic level projects for our SaaS. There's a granularity sweet spot, too fine and context switching costs spike. Too coarse and projects blur. Plus no project is actually isolated in small teams, so cross-project conversations forced more people onto each channel and productive engagement suffered. I get the AI context-confinement angle, but curious what other benefits you're seeing?

    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 🫶

    @purionx @SlackHQ @salesforce tables in slack would genuinely help, wild that it took this long to even be a request

    @SlackHQ liking the new activity view, still getting used to it. One thing: it doesn’t respect the “Just display names” setting. Is a fix coming? 👀

    @SlackHQ @vercel debugging a broken deployment directly from a chat thread is actually beautiful.

    Kleptocracy (@lfdoyfydoydtd) reported

    @salesforce @SlackHQ Instead of buying other crappy software companies, create the best sales rep. SFDC 1.0>2.0>3.0... ITS ALL SO BROKEN. Broken company that had a chance to replace salespeople but didn’t use the data and systems they already had to make it happen with agents. WTF is agentforce?
