This was an interesting failure; in that I was able to see functionality decreasing as I used it

- 45m ago - 5s delay when clicking on a thread

- 15m ago - stopped being able to open threads, but could still browse topics in channels

- 10m ago - channel view stopped rendering icons & user photos

- 5m ago - unable to view topics in a channel

Yes, noticed slow message sending and then now slack will not open on desktop. On web it shows "Server Error It seems like there’s a problem connecting to our servers, and we’re investigating the issue. Please check our Status page for updates." and on the slack status page it's all green EDIT: interestingly, the help pages are all down for me as well https://slack.com/help/articles/205138367-Troubleshoot-conne...

DownDetector [1] is sometimes a better status page. [1] - https://downdetector.com/

It reports several services which started facing increased error rates at the same time: Slack, Webull, Robinhood, Vanguard, IRS, Apex Legends

Same as me, yet the status page still saying OK. HackerNews is starting to become the real status page. It even spans multiple services! I remember I learned about Google and YouTube down also from HN.

For me the status page says "Customers may have trouble loading messages or connecting to Slack"
