@SlackHQ I need the team involved to understand that this decision makes Slack an anxiety-inducing, miserable slog to use and wonder what chain of events led to thinking this should be expected behavior.
A lack of a preference toggle for this is a huge oversight, please consider adding.
@SlackHQ Which setting in the new design in the notification preferences disables every new activity from showing up as a DM-level number increment on the workspace icon?
@SlackHQ I am not asking to disable activity view. I am asking why high priority notifications are showing up for things like emoji reactions, and why my existing preference settings no longer honor that.
@Slack Switching from a non-redesigned workspace to a redesigned workspace with new content won't scroll the viewport to the new, unread messages. It seems like the unread message is getting stuck and not updating.
@SlackHQ And how do I turn that off? A notification with a number should indicate a DM increment, and not every single tiny action every user has performed across every part of a workspace I am involved in.
@SlackHQ Is pinning workspaces on the redesigned sidebar a feature y'all would consider? Everything being flatted to one dot to indicate activity in all my workspaces isn't really working for me.
@SlackHQ My anxiety is now through the roof because I now have no quick way of scanning to know if it’s a friend DMing me or there is a work matter that needs immediate attention.
I don’t appreciate being opted into this without consent. Also happy to discuss my experiences if it helps.
@SlackHQ I know redesigns are not easy, especially for something so public. Is there a way to opt-out until this is globally shipped? Only having it available for one workspace is really negatively impacting my ability to do my job well.
@alexleestine303 I work on GitHub's accessibility team and share a lot of your frustrations and concerns. I'd love to get you connected to the right folks over here, if I'm able. Is there an email you could share in a DM that I could pass along?
@ItsCrisDiaz Not a problem if your site is in Spanish at all! As for adding yourself, the two required steps are 1) adding the code snippet, and then 2) create a PR updating `members.json`: https://t.co/La6ASq7fB2
