  Sketchy behavior: Someone from @SlackHQ joined my company channel last week saying "we're here to help you with the product" (we're not having issues). Then today started pestering me about an overdue invoice (we don't have one). Beyond violating. Shameful behavior @salesforce.

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

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

  @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?

  @johnbarker @SlackHQ Doesn't feel like they are. We've had a bunch of pre-existing issues for a while now (I replied to the other fella in the tweet with examples).

  @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.

  @SlackHQ lots of bugs and issues right now. Can't create channels and lots of jankyness. This release is a lot.

  @SlackHQ @stewart Stewart Butterfield and his team were developing a game called "Glitch" in 2011 The Glitch was an ambitious and creative multiplayer game, but it struggled to find a large enough playerbase. They had to shut it down on 2012

  @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

  @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.

  @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?

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

  @SlackHQ should fix the UX of their video player. It's one of the worst pieces of UX I've ever interacted with. It feels like I suddenly landed on some government app. Too messy

  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
