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

    @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

    @adilmania @SlackHQ What problem with slack? We use slack and discord.

    @SlackHQ what is wrong with u? I’m telling you change email because my company domain changed; it’s asking me to confirm new address, when i click on email, it wants me to login again, new address doesn’t work, with new address you’re SMS says too many attempts. Why do have to make this so difficult? I don’t like to waste my time.

    .@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?

    Please @SlackHQ can you add a proper GIF selector I need to send better gifs right after I take down production

    @thdxr @SlackHQ It’s always weird that you cannot actively reply to messages on Slack. The experience feels broken.

  • 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

    @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.

  • hey_amandam
    Amanda (@hey_amandam) reported

    @TejasKumar_ @SlackHQ Yes 👏 The issue with this (and all things like it) for me is that there seems to be some idea that anyone sees "AI" and immediately associates that with some value. What user pain of mine are you solving? I literally do not care if you are using AI or not to solve it, I just want the best experience. Explore AI as a cta is a waste of space and my mental energy

  • aunder
    April Underwood (@aunder) reported

    In this day and age of infosec threats, this subject line from @SlackHQ is a bad call. After the brief cortisol spike that someone using the name Miles Davis had joined our Slack, I scrolled down, and then just wondered why on earth I would want this in my work communication tool.

  • 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 🫠

  • gaspardlezin
    Gap | Suby (@gaspardlezin) reported

    Can someone please buy @SlackHQ and shut it down? This platform is horrible.

  • ayoImNotTrippin
    Rahul Chetia (@ayoImNotTrippin) reported

    @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.

  • qudnesa
    duh (@qudnesa) reported

    @SlackHQ @question_base why not fix your own agent first?

  • Manoj____Yadav
    Manoj Yadav (@Manoj____Yadav) reported

    @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

    @discord @beeper I think I won't have this issue with @SlackHQ...

  • FredsDaily
    HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported

    8a On my morning @Zoom with Jbazmine. Planning out the day, so we can work out the plan. Going through and getting eMail down to zero and assigning tasks in @SlackHQ.

    @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?

  • Domino_mys
    Domino Mysłowski (@Domino_mys) reported

    There was Pay by Eye, by Ring, by Watch… time to Pay by Juice? 🧃💳 Okay, this one was just a joke created by Callum (FrostyTrollz). But 10 years ago, paying with your watch or ring also sounded ridiculous. A great example of how today’s joke can become tomorrow’s product is.. @SlackHQ The team behind Slack was actually building an online game called Glitch. As the founders later mentioned: “The game was absolutely preposterous.” Eventually, the game failed and was shut down. However, the internal chat tool they built to communicate became more valuable than the game itself. That tool became Slack, now used by millions of teams. 🌱 Follow for more wild growth-hacks

    Someone 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

  • asifmghafoor
    Asif (@asifmghafoor) reported

    Hi @SlackHQ out workspace (Spacious) has been deleted by mistake - no notification or emails or anything. We need this restored with history. Can someone please help? We have sent several support requests over the past few hours and no one has responded

  • FredsDaily
    HOURLY LIFE of Fred Campos (@FredsDaily) reported

    7:30a Back home, getting the boys up, getting eMail down to zero, loading the team up with today's support and production website work (in @SlackHQ).

  • MarketingMax
    MarketingMax.com (@MarketingMax) reported

    I never call out bad marketing But this is just infuriating. I pay them thousands of dollars a year, have the app installed in my computer, phone, and even iPad … so why did I get this? And why is it not optimized for dark iPhones? Let me know if you need help @SlackHQ @Benioff

  • arashdehkordiHQ
    Ari Dehkordi (@arashdehkordiHQ) reported

    @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?

    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!
