It's not just you: Slack is being weird for a lot of people today
If Slack is acting a bit weird for you today, you're not alone.
The business chat app isn't completely down for us at Mashable, but some channels and messages simply aren't loading, even after a restart.
A quick glance over at Downdetector shows that a lot of problem are having issues with Slack this morning (Disclosure: Ziff Davis owns both Mashable and Downdetector.) Slack's own official Status page shows that some users have trouble loading Slack, and that messages aren't working all that well.

"Some users may be experiencing issues loading content in Slack, particularly threads and the Activity view," the company wrote in an incident report. "We’re still actively investigating this issue, but we don’t have any new information to share at this time. Thanks for sticking with us as we continue to work towards a fix."
We'll keep you posted with any updates about the issue. In the meantime, we'd like to remind you that this is a great excuse to tell your boss you simply can't work because Slack is down (it didn't work for me though, I still had to write this article).
