🧵What I Learned at Microsoft

Last month, I left Microsoft after four wonderful years on the Office team. It was my first job after college (big decision) and I got lucky. Not everyone does.

Some of my learnings and experiences👇

@thenanyu I think we will see mass adoption of voice with AI before we see text/chat interfaces get replaced.

@kurushdubash @patriciosainzr @SlackHQ 👋I work at Slack. Could you share a screenshot or more details on what's not working?

[Akshay (✈️ NYC) @AgentAkki]

@nlevin @SlackHQ Hmm what kind of link is it? I see the option if I long-press on the url of a Google Drive video.

(This isn’t great I agree - you should get the option when you long press on the actual unfurl object)

@MikeKhristo @SlackHQ Hi 👋 I work at Slack. Are you referring to messages you would write/read from other people? Or agent/AI output?

[Akshay (✈️ NYC) @AgentAkki]

@RobSwish @SlackHQ Does restarting the app fix it?

[Akshay (✈️ NYC) @AgentAkki]

@QuinnyPig Thanks for the feedback! Talking to the team about this.

[Akshay (✈️ NYC) @AgentAkki]

@nlevin @SlackHQ AH yes - it only shows up if you long-press on the link itself. We are making this better with unfurl presentation and actions soon.
