Slack File Transfers and Call Join Flow Experience Intermittent Bugs

Slack users encounter sporadic failures when transferring files or joining calls, with no consistent reproduction path or error messaging to guide recovery. The intermittent nature makes the issues hard to report or work around, leaving users uncertain whether retrying is safe. Teams using Slack for time-sensitive coordination bear the highest cost when these features fail without warning.
