Looks like there is a bug fix in Xfwm that may address this:
https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15399
And a workaround posted here (using xprop):
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfwm4/+bug/1827302/comments/11
So we have to wait for the Xfwm fix to get into Arch or use the workaround until then. Or rebuild Xfwm with the patch yourself...
Slack icon is missed in list of opened apps. Using Xfce. Does anyone have suggestion?
Is gconf still needed? I removed it locally, and slack still seems to work fine

+1 for xdg-utils as a dependency, 3.3.8 moved the sign-in as a browser re-direct.
+1 to adding xdg-utils to dependencies for sign-in
Update:
I was able to resolve the crash issue by deleting the ~/.config/Slack directory and restarting.
Ping: @Pauligrinder @paulequilibrio
Having the same issue as @Pauligrinder & @paulequilibrio.
I have the same problem as paulequilibrio, any idea on how to fix that?
I have an issue with slack-desktop 3.3.8-1 where the mouse scroll wheel stops working after a few hours. Quitting and restarting fixes the problem until it reoccurs. Is anyone else hitting this?
I've looked around and I don't see where to report the bug upstream. Can someone please point me to where I can do so? In the meantime, I've reverted back to 3.3.7-1 and the problem has not occurred since.

Please, don't ask for add
lsb-releaseas dependency. In Arch Linux this package is not needed to run Slack Desktop.And before asking for any other dependency as
makeorpatchor whatever, please read the wiki.
