'We're acquiring Pulse for the incredible team they have built,' Mozilla chief product officer Steve Teixeira told TechCrunch. From a report: Terms of the deal haven't been disclosed, but the deal is tantamount to an 'acqui-hire,' with Mozilla looking to deploy the Pulse team across an array of machine learning (ML) projects. Recommendation: bump slack to version 4.21.1.Firefox developer Mozilla is making a rare foray into the world of mergers and acquisitions, with news that it has snapped up recently-shuttered California-based productivity startup Pulse. Version 4.21 is not available in the gentoo portage tree yet.

# grep SRC_URI /usr/portage/net-im/slack/slack-4.19.2.ebuild If it is, we'll be happy to investigate.Ĭould you please make sure you are on the latest version of Slack (4.21.1) and restart Slack for me? This will send me a fresh set of logs I can use to what might be going on here. We do have an issue with our Snap package not handling links for Firefox well, however this should not be present in the regular direct download. Could you please confirm this is on Ubuntu, and let me know if you have the Snap store version installed? Thanks for getting in touch and I am sorry for the issues here. I sent the above report to slack support and they replied:

Since firefox only allows one instance running at a time, it fails. Since the upgrade to 4.19.2 links now try to launch a new instance of firefox. Before the latest upgrade links would open in a running firefox in a new tab.
