Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • wearegrow Alasdair Inglis (@wearegrow) reported from Lambeth, England

    @SlackHQ Possibly. I took thirty minutes to update my photo as a png. Could you make this issue work for humans.....please!

  • snim2 Sarah Mount (@snim2) reported

    @SlackHQ That's an interesting thought. I actually wasn't in full screen, but toggling between those modes doesn't reveal the menu bar, so I can't select the Window drop-down. Thinking about it, this seems more likely to be a window manager bug?

  • kevvurs a2V2aW4= (@kevvurs) reported from Seattle, Washington

    @eddydelva @SlackHQ I can't type fast enough to see this problem

  • melchoyce Mel Choyce-Dwan (@melchoyce) reported

    @SergeyBiryukov @SlackHQ Ugghhh that's terrible 😞

  • jribbens Jon Ribbens (@jribbens) reported

    @SlackHQ I'm trying to create a channel in our Slack workspace, it says "That name is already taken by a channel, username or user group". The name is not, in fact, taken by a channel, username or user group. How do I fix this please?

  • barnabee Barney (@barnabee) reported

    @SlackHQ Thanks for the response. If you're collecting feedback: I *really* wish the sidebar/browser could just sync and be exactly the same on all devices. Including hiding things in "More" as on desktop, and having "All unread" everywhere. Mobile nav has felt broken for so long!

  • haydenalcalde Hayden Simmons (@haydenalcalde) reported

    moral of the story: @SlackHQ, please fix your pricing for communities!

  • eddydelva Eddy E. del Valle (@eddydelva) reported

    The core feature in @SlackHQ is typing and is completely broken: huge delays, types in bursts, very annoying... how can you break your core feature so much like that?

  • IrregularExpr Ben Woodford (@IrregularExpr) reported

    Day... I don't know any more... of @SlackHQ having an absolutely terrible WYSIWYG Markdown editor and @discord managing to do it right by formatting the text but not actually hiding the markdown

  • railfan_ Sri 🐦 (@railfan_) reported

    @SlackHQ I use Slack in the browser and every time I open a slack URL, you ask me if I want to open the Slack app and every time I have to click "open in browser". Can you fix this so it remembers my choice? I have no interest in downloading the Slack app.

  • tlatsipinker Motlatsi. ♌ (@tlatsipinker) reported

    @SlackHQ is down. #SOS! 😩😩😩

  • MorganGeek Morgan 👾💬 (@MorganGeek) reported

    The world suddenly became a more dangerous place since EDIT is broken for me in @SlackHQ. Sigh...

  • hbrofman Harvey Brofman (@hbrofman) reported

    @SlackHQ Not sure u do. This would seem 2 indicate otherwise. Does slack validate or just show this stuff if someone drills down? Why would a gif app need: View messages and other content in public, private, group channels that Gif Keyboard has been added to

  • robertfriberg Death by ORM (@robertfriberg) reported

    @SlackHQ The short answer is to prevent knowledge loss. I see a tendency that a lot of problem solving happens in DM's between 2 members. A bot that reminds you and asks for confirmation before sending a DM would be even better.

  • DeviceCoders Device Coders Inc. (@DeviceCoders) reported

    @SlackHQ Seriously, this arcane login system is driving me absolutely crazy. WHY? Why do I have to remember the god damned url of a dozen project workspaces when i have these stupid things bookmarked already???? CAN YOU FIX IT!

  • anubhav026 anubhav (@anubhav026) reported

    @SlackHQ web slack is not working.

  • SamGreenwoodTNS Sam Greenwood @🏡 (@SamGreenwoodTNS) reported from Vaughan, Ontario

    @SlackHQ I'm having issues with Slack for Windows using absurd amounts of CPU. It generally uses between 8% and 20% if my computers CPU.

  • kgditcham Kevin Ditcham (@kgditcham) reported

    @joshharsant @SlackHQ 😪 will take some getting used to. Slack feels like the team is constantly around. But maybe it will be good for my ‘down time’ 💪

  • JeffreyHPierson Jeff Pierson (@JeffreyHPierson) reported

    @SlackHQ @robertfriberg Would Slack see any value of baking in a feature which would suggest moving certain threads or messages to different channels depending on the topic and content? Having this work for DMs could also help to keep communication in the correct place.

  • Morriz Morriz (@Morriz) reported

    @slackhq I can't create a user group called "marketing" or "dev" if we have a channel by that name already? That seems unlogical, so I assume you deem that to be a technological limitation on your end. Any fix coming? #poor #ux #missedopportunity

  • MBrooksUK 💻 Michael Brooks (@MBrooksUK) reported

    @Ocramius @SlackHQ The trouble is, a lot of workplaces refuse to use it because they think it's just for gamers and game streamers. It's a huge shame because I feel Discord is such a better platform overall.

  • jaywillis Jay Willis (@jaywillis) reported

    Hi @SlackHQ I found an egregious design flaw, on the mobile app every DM has a button in the upper right corner where so much as grazing it immediately starts a video call with EVERYONE IN THE THREAD please fix this oversight immediately

  • rbutlerUK Rob Butler (@rbutlerUK) reported

    @SlackHQ - our trial ended & back to standard, Slack won't show any of my channels or DMs unless I use search to find them. Although they exists, the channels are not showing on the sidebar at all.... no amount of reinstalling, signing in/out has fixed! Please help...

  • Dymaxion Eleanor Saitta (@Dymaxion) reported

    @SlackHQ Hey, is there a way to get a slack's icon (on the far left, when you're signed in to multiple slacks) to also show a red dot for thread replies, not just DMs? It sucks to get a notification sound and then have to hunt down where it came from.

  • SamanthaZeitlin Dr. Samantha Zeitlin (@SamanthaZeitlin) reported

    @adammckerlie @SlackHQ Are they having an outage today? I tried to upload an attachment earlier and that feature seems to be broken right now...

  • DrRob Rob Noble (@DrRob) reported

    Hi @SlackHQ, do you have any idea why my Apple Magic keyboard and trackpad would constantly disconnect and reconnect whenever I'm in a Slack call? On very rare occasions it also happens when not in a Slack call but always while in a Slack call. No problem in MS Teams calls.

  • JacquelynGill Dr. Jacquelyn Gill (@JacquelynGill) reported

    @SlackHQ I'm noticing a problem where I upload a file and it disappears once it's uploaded (without posting to the channel). Hitting submit during the upload doesn't seem to prevent this. Any ideas?

  • santinialberto Alberto Santini (@santinialberto) reported

    @SlackHQ Yes, the issue is that. It is about the messages from a bot. Thanks for investigating.

  • dcarter_js dan (@dcarter_js) reported

    @chrisrodz35 @SlackHQ i wish they would add vim bindings... would solve all shortcut issues

  • aafaq_gp Aafaq Ahmad (@aafaq_gp) reported

    Hi @SlackHQ few of my contact names and avatars are hidden, just saying "private user info" on hover. This is happening only on chrome browser, safari works fine. Any fix for this?
