Slack is down for thousands, and we've got no idea when it'll be back
Looks like Slack is down. So I imagine a lot of workplaces are panicking.
Oh no, it's looks like Slack is down and that's bad news for workplaces across the globe including for us at TechRadar.
Downdetector reported a huge spike in Slack outage reports and there are reports rolling in that Slack is down, so let's get into this.
Yeah so Slack is definitely down and I'm kinda flying blind with no easy contact with my colleagues.
But this outage doesn't appear to be affectinve everyone, as my boss Marc Mclaren reports his Slack is still working... how odd.
Ok now he's just told me his Slack is down. So yeah, this isn't good for remote collaboration.
Just got an email from Future Publishing's (the company that owns TechRadar) IT department that Slack is down across the board.
Usually when outages happen they don't always directly affect us at TechRadar. But we all use Slack to collaborate remotely and across multiple countries and continents.
So this is a outage I'm really feeling directly; I can't quickly contact my colleagues in the US, which is a pain when there's a major Amazon product event going on.
