Show HN: We built a bot to welcome new team members on slack
- chinese_dan 10y agoThis seems very impersonal and I don't think it will help in terms of team building.
- rvanlaar 10y agoThank you for looking at GreetBot. I have a couple of questions. Would you use it if it was more personal? What would you change to make it more personal? Would you use a tool for team building on Slack?
- rvanlaar 10y agoWe would love to hear from the HackerNews community. Positive and Negative. Have you added it to slack? If so, what did you think? If not, why not and what would you change before you use it?
- fiatjaf 10y agoOk, you asked for negative: I don't think the world or any organization needs more impersonal words being automatically shouted to people who never asked for them. This is basically spam for Slack.
- alch- 10y agoThanks for the feedback! Our idea is to help newbies get in touch with the right people to help them along, not just automatically shout impersonal words ;-) But clearly that still needs work. May I ask, did you install it or only look at the site? Thanks again!
- fiatjaf 10y agoOnly look at the site. I don't have a team to use it with, I also don't like Slack very much, so my feedback is probably worthless.
