As more and more companies realize that remote work is here to stay, an ever-growing number of Slack users are now faced with the same problem: How to appear as "active" on the platform when they're anything but.
For the unaware, Slack is a messaging tool that many workplaces (and friend groups) use to communicate remotely. Within the service, next to your online handle, rests a little telltale bubble. Depending on whether or not you're currently using the service, Slack will either display a green bubble for active or an empty bubble for away.
As you might imagine, this is a helpful tool for bosses trying to keep tabs on their employees. It's also the enemy of workers who are just trying to live their lives with a minimum amount of personal autonomy.
Which brings us to the issue at hand: Keeping those bubbles green.
Slack says it "automatically determines your availability based on how consistently you're interacting with the app on your device."
More specifically, Slack has a host of conditions it uses to determine whether or not that bubble shows you as working. If you're using the mobile Slack app, the bubble is green only when the app is open — it switches off the moment you toggle away. If you use the Slack desktop app or access Slack via a browser, then after 30 minutes of inactivity the jig is up.
Importantly, if you're using the Slack desktop app that's 30 minutes of "system inactivity." Whereas, if you're using a browser to access Slack, it's 30 minutes of "browser inactivity." Remember that distinction, because it matters.
"Note," cautions Slack in bold type,"There is no way to set yourself as permanently active."
Which, OK, maybe. But that doesn't mean there aren't ways to trickthe system into thinking you are active. And people definitely try.
Take, for example, this ingenious individual who, it appears, hooked their wireless mouse up to a toy train.

"We created a device that seems to always operate the mouse, because the environment in which the sleep or operation of the PC is remote to the administrator when working remotely," reads the tweet translated (albeit poorly) by Twitter.
If a work-from-home employee had their desktop Slack app open — say, for example, to the Direct Message channel with Slackbot — then the above contraption should keep their Slack bubble green for up to 30 minutes after the train stops moving. That's because there is general system activity of the mouse moving around (even if not specific browser activity).
A fan with some pens taped to it could conceivably serve a similar purpose.

But not all of us have toy trains or extra fans sitting around ready to be repurposed. And that's OK, because if you have a smartphone and an optical mouse, then another Twitter user suggests you already have all you need to fool Slack and your (micro) manager.
"I think that if you put an optical mouse on the smartphone video, it will move irregularly," reads the below tweet (again translated by Twitter). "(Lol) (Unverified)"
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
And guess what reader... in my (admittedly limited) at-home test, the above hack actually worked. As long as your phone doesn't go to sleep (this is important, so keep it plugged in) and the video keeps playing, your optical mouse should move ever so slightly, tricking the desktop app version — not the browser version —of Slack into thinking you're still busy and not asleep in the next room.
For the test, I loaded up a random nature documentary on YouTube, turned my smartphone's brightness up to maximum, plugged the phone in, and placed my optical mouse directly on top of the screen. Then I set a 30-minute timer and walked away. Thirty-two minutes later, my editor confirmed my Slack status bubble was still green. (In a later test with a different video, the trick did not work. In other words, test this out first before you commit to your nap.)
There is, however, a much easier way to accomplish this — a way that even works on the go.
On an iPhone with the Slack app, set your phone's "Auto-Lock" to never and then open the Slack app. As long as your phone is on, and in the Slack app, your bubble will remain green. Turn down the phone screen's brightness to conserve battery life, and slide the phone in your pocket as you stroll to the beach.

Importantly, your bosses may still suspect you're napping on the job when you don't respond to their repeated and frantic @yourname messages. But that's a small price to pay for the 45-minute beach nap you'll be too busy taking to care.
