Re: Users may be unable to connect or experiencing degraded performance

I’ve recently taken an interest in data analytics and have been using daily volumes of interruptions I receive via slack (and other sources) as a data set to learn myself on and try to understand how I can be more productive individually.

Today’s disruption should provide an interesting data point all of its own.

You tracking time on HN too? Not snark. I noticed that HN fills a void waiting for a build but then I'm still on here 10min after the build is done.

HN isn't a specific column to itself, but it is being counted and rolled up into one along with other sites.

I'm seeing slow performance switching/joining channels, and it's not clear whether DMs or @mentions are working consistently. Messages I send are frequently coming back as 'could not send message'.

I'm not delighted by their use of might/may language and lack of detail in the status messages. Slack is pretty clearly not working well for a large number of users, and based on the above IDK what can be attributed to degradation vs. people being unresponsive.
