[flagged] Is Slack Down?

I'm still receiving bot messages but can't seem to send anything


Their status message says 100% uptime so this inability to read or send messages is all our imagination!

Eventually if enough people notice they'll put an ! on their status page (as they've done for "Android users can't log in"), and then remove it from the browseable history in a few weeks.


The incident was recorded though: https://status.slack.com/2023-08-17

I suspect they didn't consider that it impacted their SLO because it wasn't impacting 100% of their customers.

That's the problem of status pages for large, heavily sharded, services. Tt can't reflect what a single customer experienced.


SLA impacting outages for the last year are visible here: https://status.slack.com/calendar


At this point their 99.99% SLA is a total joke, make sure to claim your service credits https://slack.com/terms/service-level-agreement


Yes, currently stuck in a login loop on desktop and 500s on browser.



Updated:

> Some customers are encountering issue loading pages in Slack. We're actively looking into this, and we'll report back as more information becomes available.


Same here. Have confirmed with other parties as well.


Having sporadic issues sending messages here.


Barely working on desktop, slow on mobile.


Works on the mobile app for me.


Be sure to let everyone know via Teams.

Slack's not down, you've been fired.
