Wow. You really don't seem to understand how to use slack.
All anyone has to do to make slack manageable is just mute all of the channels they are in and disable notifications for anything except direct mentions and direct messages.
Done. Now you can still be reached for a direct chat (if necessary), but you aren't forcing people to write you a letter.
Anyone who thinks email is an efficient method of communication is a moron.
- si13b 9y agoDo you always try to make your point by attacking people?
- t0mbstone 9y agoI apologize. The reason I came on so offensively is because you are spreading something that I perceive as misinformation. Misinformation, I might add, that when heard by the masses, makes my day-to-day job harder. For example, there are people in my company who are just like you. They can't be bothered to learn how to use slack. They are hard to get a hold of. They are always offline. When asked, they spout misinformation about how distracting slack is, and they actively fight the idea of using it. Every single one of their complaints can be easily answered if they would just listen for a second and use the notification and channel muting system correctly, and if they were just a little bit more open to the idea of trying new things.
- si13b 9y agoThat's the whole point of my comment. Email is less efficient so it will discourage unnecessary communication. Only the important information is divulged and the useless chatter forgotten.
