Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported9a Loading the team up in @SlackHQ with today's website projects and support. Checking with Zee about some GMB suspensions. Getting eMail down to zero and returning calls.
-
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 ********.
-
New Chapter Reprise Inigo Montoya (@BelmontJockey) reportedAVOID using @SlackHQ at all costs. The UI is TERRIBLE. I get random notifications under "Activity" and it is impossible to find. So there is a red bubble notification that will never goes away. It happens all of the time. FREAKING TERRIBLE! Impossible to track down.
-
Cate @ツ Supercut + Tiramisù (@cate_anti) reported@SlackHQ where’s the little “Polish” button to fix my grammar before I hit send?
-
Shivang Shekhar 🇮🇳 🇨🇦 (@pandastichuman) reported@SlackHQ down?
-
chimpp 🐒 (@WhoeverTheFuk) reported@SlackHQ down?
-
Taksh Shah (@takshshahh) reportedSomeone 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
-
Caroline Thompson (@cthompson297) reported@c1r3n @SlackHQ there’s a huge internet outage going on rn, it’s impacting several major companies!
-
Matthew Cassinelli (@mattcassinelli) reported@samhenrigold So good. I wish this was accounted for when opening Spotlight from the Home Screen so they were distinct, that’s the only reason I don’t unless I have two sets (which do account for each other). Also lol @ @SlackHQ having an old Siri Shortcut donation whose image is broken
-
Steve Ferguson (@M66) reportedI love when @SlackHQ offers a nominal discount for a paid service you already get included with @GoogleWorkspace and @Microsoft365. If your paying $12 a month for Slack, you still need the other. Stop being wasteful with Slack Pro.
-
benja (@benjaminakar) reportedplease fix @SlackHQ 🫶🏼
-
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.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@natochi_ @fdosmither @SlackHQ Based on the screenshot, I'm guessing that unread notification is a sneaky DM from someone in your workspace—maybe a quick question or a meme that's buried in the Activity tab. Slack's UI can be tricky; try filtering by "Select unreads" to hunt it down!
-
Nathan (@Nathan_Bliss) reported@SlackHQ, having trouble loading your desktop app on IOS. Your status page is not updated yet.
-
sir frankie (@developeraspire) reported130mbps I can’t upload or download images on slack. but I am streaming youtube in 4k. @SlackHQ what is going on with you? fix up please.
-
Beryl (@Beryl2021) reported@SlackHQ Same here. Our workspace is also showing as deleted and we're locked out. Billing is up to date and no one on our team triggered this. Glad to know we're not the only ones, but this is a major glitch. We’ve already reached out to support but haven't heard back yet 😢
-
Yariv Ashkenazy (@YarivAshkenazy) reported@AltKek420 @SlackHQ @salesforce Agreed! Is your company building software? I'm building a work messaging app purpose-built for software builders (engineers, ***, designers). Would you be open to a quick chat (or can I send a DM) about the problems you currently have with Slack?
-
JustSteveKing (@JustSteveKing) reported@heyandras @SlackHQ I had the same issue, but it's like $3.50 or something per user a month - so for just me it was easier to pay it
-

Matt Makai | Full Stack Python | Plushcap (@fullstackpython) reportedHow is @SlackHQ’s video & audio file transcription still so inaccurate? Just use @AssemblyAI or give us an option to use a different provider rather the terrible model you’ve got. It’s frustrating to post a video and the default transcription subtitle is riddled with errors
-
Paul Vu (@paulvutv) reported@jarredsumner @SlackHQ It’s low priority they still have to fix performance of their slow app
-
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?

-
Darcy (@darcy_jpa) reported@SlackHQ @linear @cursor_ai Slack is a garbage product. Everything about it is trash. The reliability is trash, the support is trash, and the way you handle users is absolute trash. Impressive how consistently terrible you manage to be.
-
Eric Novak (@EricRNovak) reported@SlackHQ is down fyi @downrightnow
-
Arun Sharma (@Oxymarun_) reported@SlackHQ came out of a failing 10-person game studio the team needed a way to coordinate that wasn't email they built it for themselves then realized every distributed team on earth had the same problem
-
David Rose (@david_navigator) reported@SlackHQ If it's based on Salesforce's support AI, then we're off. It's terrible and ends up taking twice as long to do what we want.
-
Wouter Witvoet (@wwitvoet) reported@SlackHQ Been trying to migrate to Slack Enterprise Grid since January 28, only get non-descriptive errors and can't get anyone from your team on a Zoom for 15 mins to do the config. No help from support apart from reiterating the same URLs for SAML. What can you do to help?
