A widespread outage has crippled Slack, leaving thousands of users across the United States unable to send and receive messages. According to outage tracker DownDetector, the disruption began around 1:15 p.m. EDT on Monday, with over 15,000 users reporting issues by 1:30 p.m. Many users took to X (formerly Twitter) to express their frustration, with some humorously remarking on the timing of the outage. 'Decided to send an announcement to 6000+ people in a Slack channel at the exact moment that Slack decided to go down,' one user quipped. The outage has added to the quiet Monday morning, with users like another user commenting, 'Monday before holiday just got that much quieter.' As the outage continues to affect users, it remains to be seen when Slack will be back up and running smoothly.
