Slack Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Ben_Kettle Ben Kettle (@Ben_Kettle) reported

    It speaks volumes that @SlackHQ goes down and everyone I know responds with "Oh good, now I can get work done"

  • vipsyvipul Vipul Bansal (@vipsyvipul) reported

    @SlackHQ Unable to access Slack on desktop after yesterday's outage. It keeps redirecting me to the system status page. Help is appreciated.

  • hayls_brown Hayley (@hayls_brown) reported

    It should be way easier than it is to edit messages on slack. @SlackHQ fix it please

  • chrisgagne Chris Gagné (@chrisgagne) reported

    @SlackHQ Sure did! :) Not sure how sending a generic spam message that I received at that email address would help, but it's in your inbox. My records indicate that it also happened in May 2018, but I did not receive a reply from your team then, either.

  • galli_gianluca Gianluca Galli (@galli_gianluca) reported

    @SlackHQ That's very convenient, isn't it? Issues are marked as resolved on your page, so 100% uptime is simply a lie at the moment. Remove it, say something like "n/a" or simply explain....but do not lie

  • WildFrog614 Wild Frog Consulting (@WildFrog614) reported

    @jayclouse @SlackHQ I had no issues with Wow today (in GC).

  • ArneKuilman ArneKuilman (@ArneKuilman) reported

    @SlackHQ No, I genuinely liked this page. It was an old link in our internal Slack. No problems here.

  • wbolster wouter bolsterlee 🙃 (@wbolster) reported

    @SlackHQ can't test since the status page only shows during an outage... which is over thankfully 👍 anyway, engineers may need to look into the way external links (to twitter in this example) work when the app is in "degraded" mode. (also i'm on linux)

  • webjedi Amélie E. Koran (@webjedi) reported

    If @SlackHQ is down again later today... I’m going outside for a walk.

  • chanandrew_ drew (@chanandrew_) reported

    @psyCHO238 @SlackHQ Oh shoot slack was down nationwide? It was out for my office too

  • dbelcham Donald Belcham (@dbelcham) reported

    @stimms @SlackHQ That wasn't an outage...that was your break time

  • kurtseifried Kurt Seifried (@kurtseifried) reported

    @Grr_Cloud @SlackHQ Also this is why we need software to degrade, not to completely outright fail dead and not allow logins or any use of the service.

  • rehack20 K (@rehack20) reported

    Problem is #slackisdown did not even tell me of their failure to post. Like what Gmail shows a connectivity issue in yellow. Your client should also do that @SlackHQ . It can cause embarrassment. Am sure several people were on Monday.

  • akhilgupta_me Akhil Gupta (@akhilgupta_me) reported

    @SlackHQ down ?

  • airfusionjfa Jim (@airfusionjfa) reported

    With the slack outage today: why do teams choose @SlackHQ over @discord?

  • tmcpro Tyler McIntyre (@tmcpro) reported

    So @SlackHQ was down today... they probably just ran out of API calls on the Salesforce lightning platform

  • PatrickLeder Patrick Leder (@PatrickLeder) reported

    @SlackHQ Specifically during the outage. I was on my Windows 10 machine. Many of my co-workers reported the same issue and thought they had to reboot.

  • ceaules_baules dilibau cotzcaru (@ceaules_baules) reported

    @SlackHQ so like... why was Slack down for so long yesterday? Where and when can we get an RCA ?

  • ShikharMittal17 Shikhar Mittal (@ShikharMittal17) reported

    @SlackHQ not working this morning was exactly the motivation I was looking for :) #slackoutage

  • J_B_Horne Jenny Horne (@J_B_Horne) reported

    Yesterday's $WORK outage only highlighted its importance to today's #WFH world. I immediately panicked I had no way of communicating (highly important in live TV). Even email for a brief back-and-forth felt prehistoric. Never do that to me again, @SlackHQ.

  • harusha Harsha Bharadhwaj (@harusha) reported

    @suyogg @SlackHQ Was wondering if that was my mobile problem. Now I know

  • stevieinselby Stevie D Esq. 🔶 🇪🇺 🇬🇧 🏳️‍🌈 👊🏿 😷 (@stevieinselby) reported

    @SlackHQ You're pushing this the day after you had a total outage and the whole system went offline for a big chunk of the afternoon? 🥴

  • Jill_Infusino Jill Infusino, MPH, CHES (She) (@Jill_Infusino) reported

    @marklewismd I mean even @SlackHQ was down this AM...

  • Grr_Cloud Grr Cloud (@Grr_Cloud) reported

    @kurtseifried @SlackHQ Appears to be AWS related. Few other SaaS went down as well.

  • Portekoi Portekoi (@Portekoi) reported

    @SlackHQ #slackdown : if you want to keep your customers, you really should find the issue.

  • monicalimco Monica Lim (@monicalimco) reported

    @SlackHQ and @NotionHQ going down is equivalent to a snow day for adult remote workers. 🙌

  • masoombakliwal Masoom Jain (@masoombakliwal) reported

    Am I the only one who was not impacted with @SlackHQ outage? #slackdown #slackoutage

  • Aquarion Nicholas/Aquarion (@Aquarion) reported

    @JplusCplusM @SlackHQ @SlackStatus And when it was up it was up, and when it was down it was up, and when it was bouncing up and down it was still marked here as up.

  • iflyupsidedown Bill Rashid (@iflyupsidedown) reported

    Shower thought yesterday: when @SlackHQ goes down, how does the team communicate to get things back up? Email...? #slackdown

  • Grr_Cloud Grr Cloud (@Grr_Cloud) reported

    @kurtseifried @SlackHQ I was being a bit silly but I've worked for companies that wouldn't admit failure if it was a vendor (CDN or Twilio for example) How do you degrade authentication? I know a little about slack but without knowing specifics I'm going to guess it was a capacity issue,I'll research
