    @cyberomin @SlackHQ Just to name a few: - Randomly opening channels a few miles up in the chat so I have to go all the way back down again - Right-click context menus are all over the place and inconsistent - Ghost notifications that show up randomly with no notification to go alongside them

    @karrisaarinen @linear @SlackHQ Linear coding agent when? 👀 currently handing it off to another service but be nice to skip the extra step.

    @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.

    @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.

    @evisdrenova hmm kinda like Kaniko caching locally, but I think the problem is that the industry has broadly gotten used to very slow deploy pipelines. Back when I was at @SlackHQ in like 2018, we used to SCP the monolith across the fleet and deploy in a couple minutes. Containerization is awesome for various reasons but it has gotten an entire generation of developers to just expect builds + deploys to take at least 15 and usually closer to 45. I do wonder how much perf you could squeeze out with replacing BuildKit but I imagine it's already highly optimized. I just *feel* like developers shouldn't have to think so much about why their builds are slow.

  • digitalandreas

    @hugorcd @SlackHQ @github It has been broken for so long they probably think it's a feature internally

  • sampullara
    Sam Pullara (@sampullara) reported

    @thdxr @SlackHQ No one wants all replies to show up in the channel. It is a terrible defauu.

  • adilmania
    Adil Mania. (@adilmania) reported

    @NebulaAI @safizaq @SlackHQ discord integration is kinda broken, like i keep having "nebula" links showing, if you can fix that, that will be perfect.

  • ashirsc
    Drew Hirschi (@ashirsc) reported

    @SlackHQ pls never ask me again if I want to DM a thread when I tag someone with no text. This is a terrible feature.

  • calvinclee
    Calvin Lee (@calvinclee) reported

    @SlackHQ the mobile app has significantly regressed. why do I have a DM tab and an activity tab that only lets me filter down to DMs again? I want to easily filter for mentions.

    @hiiinternet @SlackHQ It’s a big problem actually

    Karri Saarinen (@karrisaarinen) reported

    @gustaf @ycombinator @SlackHQ What is degrading? WhatsApp imo is not a good example. Can’t even hold login on a desktop, and have to auth with your phone. Sync not super reliable either

    @OpenAIDevs @googledrive @SlackHQ Can we fix Codex.... When it does a context automatically compacted it stops what its doing

    John Harnett (@JohnHarnett) reported

    @cyberomin @digitalandreas @SlackHQ If you've filed a bug with them on the last 5 years and arent a big co then you'd know. They dont fix stuff just because it's broken.

  • grinich
    Michael Grinich (@grinich) reported

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

  • petegarber
    Peter Garber (@petegarber) reported

    @Cartidise @OutofGalaxyy The icons might be stupid here but Gchat works pretty well inside of Gmail and this UI actually is OK. The only problem is that Gchat should literally be able to replace @SlackHQ but it’s been ignored.

    @Hyomabtw @SlackHQ @Hyomabtw please how can I get work like virtual assistant,customer care service

    Salman (@m_salman_afzal) reported

    no meaningful way to contribute. Just like closed source/proprietary software, you can report issues, but whether it gets fixed or not depends upon the creator. For example, there are couple of issue that I reported to @SlackHQ regarding screen sharing popups,
