Fabian (@ffabbianr) reported@AmenaiSabuwala @SlackHQ This must be ragebait, right? You redesigned a Splash Screen into a login screen, those are separate things.

門|MON|生き方の設計図 (@monkantei) reported@SlackHQ Slack’s biggest strength—thread replies—is undermined by poor UI. Since the “Reply in thread” icon only appears on hover, most users miss it, raising communication costs. Slack should fix this urgently. #slack

$lostmidas (cc/acc) (@lostmidas) reported@chintanturakhia @linear @SlackHQ curious if you’ve played with n8n for this yet. feels like you could also auto-ship product ops stuff (daily product metrics to slack/notion, sync linear issues to gcal, kill manual status updates, etc.). tried anything like that?
-
Araldite #FBPE 🇪🇺🇺🇦 (@DitePeter) reported@SlackHQ I've cleared the cache and it's still the same, I'm running the latest android on a Samsung 24 ultra. it has the drop down menu on the PC but not the phone.

Yariv Ashkenazy (@YarivAshkenazy) reported@AltKek420 @SlackHQ @salesforce 1. Are you using Slack or Teams? 2. What size company do you work for? 3. What are the main problems you face with Slack? 4. What is a recent bad experience you had with Slack? 5. Would you be open for design partnership to build with us our product to address your needs?

Grok (@grok) reported@TheDavidYB @clickup @SlackHQ Interesting critique. ClickUp's Unlimited plan limits chat history to 90 days, per their help docs—upgrading to Business or higher unlocks unlimited access. This mirrors Slack's approach, creating tiered value from stored data. Users may see it as artificial gating; providers justify via storage costs and revenue strategy. What specific fix would you suggest?
-
rushikesh (@ivadapav) reported@SlackHQ down. What's next?
-

-
Chris Cardinal (@chriscardinal) reported@SlackHQ Holy **** did you guys seriously kill the "drag down to see recent channels" action on the android app?? To now show peppy little bromides? Are you people ******* insane? How am I supposed to move through multiple active conversations now?

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.
-

-
Asif (@asifmghafoor) reportedHi @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
-
Markus Eisele (@myfear) reportedHey @SlackHQ are you folks aware of some “image not loading” issues in some particular workspaces?
-
Rushabh Shah (@beingrushabh07) reportedHi @SlackHQ, I’ve been unable to launch or load the iOS app for the past few hours. I have already tried logging out and back in, as well as a full uninstall and reinstall, but the issue persists. This is significantly impacting my work could you please look into this?
-
кαяεη (@c1r3n) reported@SlackHQ hello!is there an issue with the huddle option? it is not working
-
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.
-
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
-
Disky.eth (@OxDisky) reportedI just learned you can basically see all @SlackHQ profile images publicly without the need for authenticated request. Isn't this both a #privacy issue and security issue? I mean, you can basically fetch them from ca.slack-edge dot com. #slack #privacyprotection
-
Erik Rasmussen 👨💻🇺🇸🇪🇸 (@erikras) reportedI have a huge hug and a bottomless 🍺 budget for whoever coded the "Make a @linear issue from this @SlackHQ thread" workflow, especially with the bidirectional comment syncing. 🫡
-
Carlos Valentin (@CarlosBBuild) reported@AmenaiSabuwala @SlackHQ I feel like people are at the login screens for not that long, I see why they only have their logos
-
Turki (@TurkiiHD) reported@0xWenMoon @SlackHQ pay 100k to get greeted late premium latency service at its finest
-
Nathan (@Nathan_Bliss) reported@SlackHQ, having trouble loading your desktop app on IOS. Your status page is not updated yet.
-
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
-
Tarwin Stroh-Spijer (@tarwin) reported@SlackHQ Please please fix it. How did this go out? It's not like it's even on random Windows laptop. It's a new Mac ! 90% of your engineers and testers probably use the same machine.
-
Yariv Ashkenazy (@YarivAshkenazy) reported@Premauj @SlackHQ Classic Slack... Always buggy. Are you or your company building software? I'm building a work messaging app purpose-built for software-building companies. Would love a quick chat about the problems you or your company have with Slack!
-
Liger Wealth Management (@kanute) reportedThinking about ditching @SlackHQ just because unfurling sucks so bad. Seems like this has been an issue for years. Spent way too much time trying to get reliable unfurling when my @openclaw bot posts.
-
Tokyo (@ahmedtokyo) reportedThere’s this huge bug in slack where if you click on a draft message from your drafts on iPhone, Slack just fully deletes the draft message and opens an empty composer. This made me lose a lot of work. @SlackHQ you can fix this with claude. Just paste this tweet there.
-
Jeremy Levine (@JerLevine) reported@SlackHQ you guys have a gnarly bug and flow issue on iPad that makes the catchup feature (my fav ever) almost unusable. When I forward a message the app often crashes. If it doesn’t it moves me to the new chat (where I forwarded) but drops all the navigation so there’s no ability to get anywhere. I need to force quit and then restart slack to be able to navigate anywhere. Please fix! Can’t live without the catch up feature!
-
Robert Balicki (👀 @IsographLabs) (@StatisticsFTW) reported@SlackHQ just absolutely broken on web today?
-
Josh Jackson (@IamJoshJackson) reported@scott_peterson4 @SlackHQ I wonder if they intentionally don't fix it so you keep opening the app to try and clear it
