    Slackbot legit might be one of my favorite uses of AI outside of coding. I use this thing constantly to find past conversations, summarize entire chats, help write responses, look for things I might be forgetting, or even look up past context on a decision or topic. Seriously @SlackHQ this legit improves my life

    . @SlackHQ slack gets a lot of things right, but the iOS app’s search functionality is very bad. Can I please chat with someone who can then hopefully fix it?

    Claude is the best corporate CYA buddy I used to have full CYA files with records of messages, emails and things I did - I was terrible at keeping those and people took advantage of that. With Claude and @meetgranola - I have canonical record of all conversations, @SlackHQ messages, emails, canonical decisions - everything Oh, you say I didnt do something? I didnt respond? Here come the receipts

    @Yonar87 @SlackHQ same issue here. Just sent them an email. Their status landing page says they've been 100% find this quarter which makes me think maybe they just don't update that page?

  • karrisaarinen
    Karri Saarinen (@karrisaarinen) reported

    @gustaf @ycombinator @SlackHQ I’d say Slack. Haven’t really experienced those issues you mention. Unless my internet is very bad. iMessage/whatsapp overly phone and counterparty focused so I’m more often wondering if the message actually got delivered or not and if the problem is me or them. Slack is more of a server and it doesn’t send the message if it doesn’t work.

    @karrisaarinen @SlackHQ The handoff from Slack discussion to actual tracked issue is where most teams drop the ball - keeping that loop tight is harder than it sounds.

    @SlackHQ @SlackHQ cute, but can you fix the "copying emojis from slack to somewhere else please"

  • alexei_sid
    Alex Sidorenko (@alexei_sid) reported

    @Moore_Irish @salesforce @SlackHQ Pricing changes that reduce admin control while pushing AI features rarely improve outcomes. The real test: does the AI actually help teams make faster, better decisions, or is it just another feature tax masquerading as innovation?

  • Manoj____Yadav

    @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

  • iceman_ome

    .@SlackHQ and @Jira have the weirdest integration possible. Have spent the last 15 mins trying to remove jira app from Slack, but unable to. Can someone more knowledgeable help?

  • jason_alco
    Jason Alco (@jason_alco) reported

    @SlackHQ Our team loves the platform, but we really need to fix the mark unread feature. It’s been broken for years now. First, you should be able to mark a channel as unread without opening the channel and selecting a message. Second, half the time marking a message as unread doesn’t work. I have to go message by message, trying over and over until one works. Please fix this, thank you 🫠

    @SlackHQ why is there no obvious way to join a channel in Slack? Seems like a huge usability problem, the + sign next to channels creates a channel, but joining one is very elusive

    Brad Beckett (@bradbeckett) reported

    With how much sensitive data @SlackHQ stores, it's surprising they don't yet support Passkey login or have a BIMI email verification certificate so their legitimate emails get a blue verified check mark in major email service providers. @digicert pls reach out to them!

  • jorilallo
    Jori Lallo (@jorilallo) reported

    @pizzaboy @karrisaarinen @SlackHQ It's still the same agent with capability to access everything as the caller user can. If you're calling it in the channel, it has that as context so it will file issue into the project by default and answer questions about the project without you needing to name it separately. If there's situatons where it's not working as intended, would love to get screenshots

    @SlackHQ @linear Then fix your MCP server!

  • evisdrenova
    Evis Drenova (@evisdrenova) reported

    @sbilstein @SlackHQ yeah to your earlier point i think it depends at what layer you want to attack it i.e. rust builds are slow, caching can help but github actions is trash for it, but blacksmith isn't bad, is there a generic solution you can use that *just works* on any CI? alternatively, go after the actual docker execution layer but not clear to me how much of a bottleneck that actually is vs. language specific idiosyncrasies buildkit is pretty optimized from what i've heard but i generally agree with make it fast and stupidly easy to use!

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