The message is in a light grey colour until it's confirmed. I'm not saying it's amazingly obvious but at least the information's there. In fact I'm mostly posting this comment so others know what to look for.

(I know this because I just spent 60 seconnds staring at my message trying to figure out why the formatting was off before it told me it wasn't sent. It sent immediately when I retried though.)

I’ve had messages that were black for at least one minute turn gray and only then notify me that they failed to send

I had sequence of six messages that were not all delivered, and once they were delivered (because I clicked on each one of them) they were re-ordered, altering the my whole part of the conversation.

This morning alone, I've had multiple messages start off black, then turn grey after about 10 seconds. And that's not just true today, but other time Slack has been down as well.

"If it's black, it's confirmed delivered" is not an invariant.

This is sometimes the case. Not always.
