Did #slack get rid of the ability to customise theme by Hex Code? Weirdly I can click "share" and get a copy of the hexcodes, but there's nowhere to set new ones that I can see? Every day Slack works further away from the independent non-corporate vibe we all used to appreciate.

Slack tip: ⌘⇧S (command shift s) expands the workplace switcher to a dedicated column. Allows you to see which workspace has new activity without needing to tap to expand the list first. h/t @anderseknert@hachyderm.io #Slack #proTip

What the hell are Slack playing at? Do they not use their own product?

I just remembered Slack supports sed-like syntax to edit a message. 🤯 For instance: /s/great/amazing/ would replace the word “great” by “amazing” in the last message. 🔥

Did you try the new huddle feature on @SlackHQ to get on a quick voice chat with someone? if they don't show up after a while, Slack plays a waiting music 🤣

TIL that if you hit @SlackHQ's conversations.create API fast enough you can create multiple Slack channels with the same name before the uniqueness validation kicks in

We’ve got a Slack channel for everything at Monzo. To name a few, there’s the important ones like ‘Diversity & Inclusion,’ ‘Announcements’ and one literally called ‘Important.’

Don’t forget the new emoji channel, which pings every time someone creates a new slack emoji

Few people understand that Twitter is the general Slack channel for everyone in tech.

This is one of my pet peeves. I understand Slack doesn't really want free Slacks to exist, but having them be so bad harms the brand in general. Like I associate Slack with screwing over communities.

The thread notifications in an unpaid Slack where the responses are behind the paywall and you can never clear it

It’s worth noting this works only at the highest enterprise tier. And even then only via data dump API call not in the app (last I knew). Still important for people to know of course but don’t want to scare anyone unduly!

doing an @ everyone in a slack channel with over 5000 people should be grounds for having your hard drive confiscated tbh

⁉️ Did you know there's a string replace slash command in @SlackHQ? /s/find/replace
