The latest version of our desktop app provides a smoother, faster experience for all. Some notable changes include faster loading times, better overall performance and the ability to work offline.
What’s new
• Limited offline support — set your status, star items, and react to messages when you don’t have an internet connection
• Less memory usage, better performance
• Faster loading times
• Improved Slack calls
Other notable updates
• Click the new paperclip icon in the message field to add attachments
• A redesigned autocomplete menu for @mentions and slash commands
• No more loading messages — Slack loads too quickly for them to be readable
• Visual improvements to the activity view, Quick Switcher, and channel sidebar
• Unread message activity displays as a dot on the top-right of your workspace icon
• Member profiles have a bigger profile image and include the option to message or call the individual
• Drafts sync across Enterprise Grid workspaces
Going by the article, you can't download this version from official site yet. Official site still holds the old slower version. You will be updated automatically in the next few weeks if you are running Slack desktop. The website is for Linux version of Slack. https://slackhq.com/introducing-...
Congrats on the new launch, @stewart. Love seeing founders as makers on Product Hunt.
I think the offline mode will be particularly useful (especially on long flights).
And, as silly as it sounds, bigger member profile images will be a welcome change as well. As teams get bigger, it's helpful to actually get a sense for what somebody looks like in case you see them IRL.
Strange the "website" link here is microsoft.com. Would think slack.com with an auto-detection of platform would have been a better call for the top button.
