I'm seeing messages double post for some reason, both ones I send and ones from my coworkers. The 2nd message fails the first time. And the occasional connection error.
Yes, slack is intermittently down for me and the rest of my company. It's intermittently losing messages, failing to load new ones, and showing error pages :-(
Whichever Salesforce employee has their bonus tied to this being declared an incident and not an outage; fuck you.
This has affected critical, operational processes which YOUR sales and marketing teams use in Case Studies[0][1][2] and documentation[3][4].

I would not recommend basing your core business capabilities around an external chat app with no redundancy. Outages happen and always will.
If your operations rely on a slack workflow, it sounds like it’s a case of wrong tool for the job.

Slack, Fastmail, Claude, Github - all seem to be having intermittent outages and are randomly logging people out.
I got logged out of Fastmail as well. Do we have any ideas as to what happened?
I could really do without a Fastmail outage today.
