I am inclined to agree. Slack is pretty crucial these days and unless there is a "layer 7 only outages group" this seemed like the logical place to report the alerts.

Then again I don't own the distro so what do I know. What I will say is, I did find the notifications helpful today.

You know, its 2018.  If people don't know how to apply filters and event correlation, maybe they should consider a different field.<br>

<pre>We've been seeing connectivity issues to Slack for the past few minutes
from 141.219/16 and whatever Verizon Wireless subnet our cellphones got
dumped in.

Basically it appears to the desktop client like we're not connected, mobile
client just says "Connecting..."

Anyone else?
