It all started with:

Update - Fix has been deployed, Slack integrations are recovering

Nov 03, 2023 - 17:22 UTC

This is why you don't release on a Friday!

Curious what you think an alternative is for enterprises. You can self host rocket chat, sure, but sometimes you just can’t afford a devops team just for internal tools. Slack is cheap and easy.

I don't need to have a better option in mind in order to denigrate a current option. I use slack for work also and it sucks ass, even harder after this awful new GUI update.

Its a garbage ass app that constant crashes, then requires authentication again, which is a 50/50 if it will work.

Maybe these lazy fucking developers should stop using Chrome (or Electron? Idk what it based on, but its something) as a basis and actually write their own full program.

Not two hours ago I declined a PR because it was a huge change on Friday.

Why not just wait to merge it Monday?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

'cause stupid corporate policy and metrics mean an unreviewed PR is bad for me, and an unmerged PR is bad for the submitter.

You'd think declined PRs would be more of a metric to deter bad PRs from happening?

This would be a logical step and we don't do that here.
Please stop being logical.
