I just wish there was a way to get it to handle processing of folder and file paths to your environment. They say it’s a security thing which I get, but my team is constantly sharing links to files and folders and it’s a PITA having to copy and paste the links into Explorer. If there was some way of making it work securely it would be a big productivity boost a d QOL improvement.
As long as cmd + k still allows me to find DMs and/channels I think it’s not too bad. I feel like I prefer the current design mostly because I don’t need a quick glance of the latest message, just that I have unread message, but I won’t know until I try
The screenshots look like it now takes more clicks to get to groups/conversations than before. That appears like it will make me less productive instead of more.
Same - right now I have a list of DMs that shows full names and is immediately accessible - to me that’s significantly easier to look through than a mockup of a phone interface…
I’m using Slack on desktop and for work - not a fun of makig it look like I’m texting my buddies from my phone.
I have my doubts. Making Slack less distracting would be directly antithetical to Slack’s monetary interests. Long term, I’d love to be proven wrong, but I have my suspicions that where this is going is slack wants to gain more users, and then slowly ratchet the noise back up
Like periodically not recognizing why audio device on my computer. Or just not sending notifications sometimes. Or not recognizing @ autocompletes. Stuff like that. :)
Yeah I agree - the Activity tab and the DMs look like they are exact copies of the Teams interface. I mean, it’s an intuitive way to display info but I don’t see much design innovation with this announcement
