A new emoji theme for Slack notifications has been introduced, allowing users to customize their message theme in the notification settings by selecting "Message theme" under "Account Settings → Notifications → Slack." This update adds a playful touch, using specific emojis to indicate the status of builds: a thumbs-up emoji for successful builds, an okay sign for fixed builds, a thumbs-down for failed builds, double thumbs-down for continuously failing builds, and a raised hand for canceled builds, providing a more visually engaging way to monitor build statuses.
