If you're having trouble using Slack right now, you're not alone. Everyone's favorite workplace app is experiencing some connectivity issues this Wednesday, according to a status report from the company.

Open the Slack desktop app, then click Help in your computer’s top menu bar. (On Windows 10, click the three horizontal lines icon in the top left of the Slack app.) Click Clear Cache and restart. The Slack team said the cause of the outage was “a symptom of an earlier incident,” and did not specify further.

Slack is no stranger to outages and there's been several over the last few years. The last one occurred in July 2023 and, before that, it went down three times in 2022: July, March and February. Then there was also an outage in January 2021. Looks like we can now add February 2025 to the list.
