Sorry — can’t work today. Slack is showing an unread count of 1 on its Dock icon badge, but there are no unread messages or activity of any kind. I’ve searched through everything and refreshed multiple times.

Till this clears up I’ll just be spinning in my chair.

I strongly dislike UI that requires tap-and-hold.

I don’t like that it’s so slow compared to other interactions — it’s more about waiting than just tapping and holding, and I just don’t have any patience when using my phone.

And there’s the weird mental brace-for-impact during the wait — waiting for the menu and haptics and whatever that will happen not immediately on tap but at some unpredictable time later, as my brain anticipates it on a loop until it finally happens.

Just me?

The good news is that we can continue to use Slack for free, and we will. We will lose older messages forever, yes, but I don’t care about that.

I was curious how much I’d have to pay to upgrade to Slack Pro for the NetNewsWire group — and it’s obviously more than the revenue from my free app can sustain. :)

Note that the lower price is just for three months, and then it would go up to the full price. And let’s not even talk about adding AI! (Seriously — let’s not.)

Engineers — new rule — pay attention: whenever you hear or read the word learnings, as said or written by someone in your company, you have to take the rest of the day off.
