Search filters Smarter search matches Notification sound control Easier sign-in Clearer link errors Consistent line breaks

This Week in Slashwork

Search has been the big focus these past few days, and it shows: results are easier to filter, easier to page through, and smart enough to find what you meant even when you didn’t type it exactly right. We also tightened up a handful of everyday moments — signing in, getting notified, formatting a message — so the basics feel just as solid as the big stuff. Here’s what’s new.

Unified Search Seen By Linked Posts CSV Import Composer Polish

This Week in Slashwork

This week was all about making the things you already do in Slashwork a little faster and a little clearer -- finding what you're looking for, knowing who's actually reading your posts, and getting your whole team set up in the first place. Here's what's new.

Smarter Feeds — better ranking Mark As Read — mobile read/unread Paste to Share — media pasting + SVGs Google Workspace — sync fix

This Week in Slashwork

We spent this stretch making Slashwork pay closer attention -- to what's actually happening in your feed, to whether you've actually read something, and to whatever you're trying to paste into a message. Here's what shipped.

Search glow-up; Message deep links; Photo viewer polish; Company branding Chat composer fixes; Permission prompts; SSO/SCIM reliability

This Week in Slashwork

No single headline feature this week, which is honestly how most of the good stuff in software actually happens: a dozen things get a little bit better all at once. Search finally feels like it should have all along, every message can now be pointed at directly, and photos behave the way your thumb expects them to. Here's what shipped.

Document search; Company logo; Seen-by popup; Mobile link previews; Photo crop/drag polish; Voice note fixes; SSO/SCIM polish

This Week in Slashwork

This stretch wasn't about one big splashy launch. It was about sharpening a handful of things you already rely on every day. From smarter search to smoother uploads, here's what shipped.

Org chart navigation; People Map (v1); Chat read receipts; Channel/Team system events; SCIM full lifecycle; Company profile picture; App download pages; Mobile chat cleanup

This Week in Slashwork

Last week's newsletter was the org chart's debut and SCIM's first real breath. This week, both of them grew up. The chart learned to move around a company instead of just picture one, and SCIM learned how to finish what it starts, not just how to begin it. We also, almost as a side project, built you a map. It's another no-single-blockbuster week — just a stack of things that make Slashwork noticeably more useful than it was seven days ago. Here's what shipped.

Org chart, Inline chat search, SCIM provisioning, Post embedding, Smarter @mentions, iOS badge counts, Non-nullable seen time

This Week in Slashwork

This week was a grab bag. One long-promised feature, one enterprise checkbox, and a pile of fixes nobody asked for but everybody needed. We landed the much-request Org Chart, SCIM became really real, and mentions got a tasty tune up. Here's what shipped.

New design polish, Desktop app upgrades, SSO & SCIM provisioning, Smarter @mentions, Fixed voice messages, Tuned notifications, Link reliability fixes, Search overhaul

This Week in Slashwork

Two weeks ago I told you we tore the paint off the web app and quietly started building a real desktop app. This stretch was less about big swings and more about making things sing under real use. Voice messages now renders correctly on every platform. Links now work better than ever. Our own team can now log into our own product roughly the way an enterprise customer eventually will. Let's get into it.

A week of closing the loop on things we shipped last week. Pinned messages got expiry, scheduled posts came to native, and comments got a bunch of buffs.

A big week for things you can stick to the top of a conversation, and a bunch of composer work that the mobile keyboards have been quietly demanding for months.

This Week in Slashwork

A quieter-looking week from the outside, but a busy one underneath. A lot of the work this week was about polishing things we shipped recently — scheduled posts, the long-press menu, reactions — and unlocking some long-standing language and accessibility wishes.

Slashwork got some major improvements like improved application management and voice notes on desktop

This Week in Slashwork

It's been a full week. A lot of what shipped falls into two categories: things users see immediately and feel viscerally and things that quietly augment powerful under-the-hood parts of the system. Both matter.

This Week in Slashwork

It's been a week of big swings. Several features that have been in flight for a while all landed at once: notifications, importing, invites, and a handful of things that make the mobile experience feel a lot more like what it should have been all along. Here's what shipped.
