According to the Slack status page, Slack is working again.

"We're happy to share that the connection problems should no longer be occurring," reads the announcement. "You should be able to connect again, but please let us know if you run into any further issues."

I have an issue, Slack, that I would love to let you know about: Namely, that your service wasn't offline long enough for me to enjoy my hammock. Oh well, bring on the cascade of @here alerts.

UPDATE: May 21, 2018, 2:19 p.m. PDT: LOL well just wait a minute. You see it turns out Slack jumped the gun, and not everything is indeed fixed. According to the aforementioned Status page:

"Our team is still reviewing the trouble, and we are getting back on the right track towards a solution. We hope to have more good news to share with you shortly."

UPDATE: May 21, 2018, 3:29 p.m. PDT: OK, everything finally appears to be really and truly fixed. And this time, that goes for everyone.

"Nothing to report here," reads the Slack status page. "Slack is up and running normally."
