  I 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. 🫡

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

  @aouabch Most teams don’t fail to scale because of bad tools. They fail because every new tool hides the same old inefficiency. IMO @clickup and @SlackHQ aren’t the problem. It’s the illusion that organisation = progress.

  AVOID 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.

  @SlackHQ OH NO! What did you do?! CMD-K no longer shows me a list of unread slack channels to navigate to. I sincerely hope this is a bug that's fixed ASAP. This is 100% the most critical feature I use in almost any daily piece of tech. Please fix!!!!

  @SlackHQ Anyone else having app problems on MacOS when you go to resize the window it moves it instead of sizing? Been like this for a month or more now!

  @samhenrigold So good. I wish this was accounted for when opening Spotlight from the Home Screen so they were distinct, that’s the only reason I don’t unless I have two sets (which do account for each other). Also lol @ @SlackHQ having an old Siri Shortcut donation whose image is broken

  First world problem but the fact that @SlackHQ uses cmd+shift+c instead of cmd+e for `code` formatting is a daily pain

  @AmenaiSabuwala @SlackHQ I feel like people are at the login screens for not that long, I see why they only have their logos

  slack needs to fix the way they handle media uploads. it is terrible. @SlackHQ please fix up.

•

  @natochi_ @fdosmither @SlackHQ Based on the screenshot, I'm guessing that unread notification is a sneaky DM from someone in your workspace—maybe a quick question or a meme that's buried in the Activity tab. Slack's UI can be tricky; try filtering by "Select unreads" to hunt it down!

  @Benioff When I copy numbered lists from ChatGPT into @SlackHQ, you always converts every number into a 1. Very annoying, please fix.

  @SlackHQ you need to look into your app. The whole communication functionality is terrible, and it Lags alot

  @SlackHQ Most AI agents fail because they’re written by bloated enterprise teams who don’t really know what problem they’re solving.

• 
  Zev Zoldan (@ZevZoldan) reported 45 minutes ago

  Hot take for the AI founders knocking @SlackHQ: Slack doesn’t have a “communication problem.” Teams do. Most “ignored messages” aren’t about noise, attention spans, or channel chaos. It’s because Slack messages have zero structure. No timing. No follow-through. No visibility. Just text thrown into the void and a prayer. The second you add structure — forms, confirmations, simple logic — everything changes. People actually respond. Leaders stop guessing. Teams stop resending the same message 12 times. Slack doesn’t need fewer messages. It needs smarter ones. That’s what we’re building with @TryThreadly.
