Poor UX and missing functionality in Slack integration and collaboration
The Slack integration creates unnecessary work by automatically posting links to unmoderated tasks in threads. Additionally, the process of adding collaborators is tedious as it requires selecting people one by one instead of allowing team-based selection.

Auto-posting a link to the newly created, un-moderated task, creates more work because then we have to remember to delete that link.
Generally the Slack integration overall feels very unloved, lot’s of UX issues and missing functionality like thread/comment sync IMO.
It seems like poor UX that one can’t simply select a team as collaborators, but must input people one by one.
