    Fluorine (@FluorineHQ) reported

    @gustaf @SlackHQ Reliability is the floor, not the ceiling. Slack hit the floor and is now adding notification noise to mask it — classic engagement-metric trap. The deeper issue: messaging apps stopped being where work happens and became where work gets talked about. That's the gap worth solving.

    @adjohu @SlackHQ The crypto community loves the idea of Wild Static, do you have a solana wallet we can donate to to help fund you vision?

  • hollowvox
    Jose Urquiza (@hollowvox) reported

    We're about to start letting our employees fix their own bugs with @v0 and @SlackHQ. Why report a bug to another system when you can send it straight to v0? All I have to do is review the PR and merge it in. So confident in the models and the platform that I can go hands off.

    @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.

    @MatthewAry @github @SlackHQ Yes, we have the same problem today

  • SilchQuatch
    Björne 🇸🇪🏋️‍♂️ (@SilchQuatch) reported

    @QuinnyPig @SlackHQ Every single unwarranted notification births months of hate inside of me. Literally anti-ads for me, any pattern of it and I immediately remove the service. I guess it has to work or it wouldn't be done?

  • qudnesa

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

  • mrtipton_art

    @pizzaboy @SlackHQ Nah, I’m that guy. Gotta fix it

  • vasundhar

    @SlackHQ there is issue with your cache where you store message send failure and likes

    can someone at @SlackHQ please for the love of god fix drag and drop to attach a file? how has this been an issue for months without anyone realizing? Steps to reproduce: Drag file to attach. Nothing happens. no file attached.

  • 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 🫠

  • m_salman_afzal
    Salman (@m_salman_afzal) reported

    @SlackHQ But whether they decide to act on it will depend how much they prioritize the issue. And this is what open source could become as well. We can only report but only their agent factories can now contribute. So, it kind of is closed source since no one is now reading the 100k loc

  • the_mewc
    mewc (@the_mewc) reported

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

    @purionx @SlackHQ @salesforce tables in slack would genuinely help, wild that it took this long to even be a request

  • Watching1776
    TheHardTruth (@Watching1776) reported

    @SlackHQ You need to fix that app so it stops putting people into Auto Silence repeatedly without touching anything. Your code is trash

  • FredsDaily

    8:30a Loading up the team in @SlackHQ and getting eMail down to zero. Planning out the day, so I can work out the plan.

  • bkwebster
    Brandon Karl Webster (@bkwebster) reported

    @adilmania @SlackHQ Better alternatives exist - it’s used abundantly because of the mindshare and scale. The only replacement would be a totally new and obvious form factor that leads to the same outcome in a better way - not a better alternative to the same problem.

  • ImagineArt_X
    ImagineArt (@ImagineArt_X) reported

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

  • PlotnikovDev

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

    @SlackHQ Slack bot requires a proper fix first.

    @SlackHQ You need to fix your search before moving on to AI.

  • bradbeckett
    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!

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

    Karri Saarinen (@karrisaarinen) reported

    @gustaf @ycombinator @SlackHQ What is degrading? WhatsApp imo is not a good example. Can’t even hold login on a desktop, and have to auth with your phone. Sync not super reliable either

  • 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
