Update:
Benioff DM'd me and gave me his personal phone number, instantly opened up a text thread with Slack CEO.
Slack team is all-hands-on-deck getting this fixed, they're talking with our lead engineer now.
Past frustration turning to being very impressed pretty quickly.
As we close another year, I'm deeply grateful for the BalkanID team’s achievements & the community’s unwavering support.
Wishing y’all a festive holiday season & a New Year filled with health, happiness, & continued success. Here's to making 2024 even more remarkable together!
