For me, the tendency of slack to let users write very short sentences/phrases is the issue. Etiquette for slack allows very IM like messages, whereas Emails are generally required to be more verbose.
- dzhiurgis 6y agoI hope I never have to go back to using email for work. Long messages for tickets, slack for near real time chat. Email for transactional spam and emailing old friend once a year.
- abalashov 6y agoIt's probably a question of personality, custom and habit, but I tend to write like I speak (some would say "no, you speak like you write" :-) in any forum, including Slack, sometimes in defiance of the cultural norms of the audience. It leads to something of a reputation for verbosity, but never the accusation of ambiguity or excessive terseness. I don't think anyone's ever said to me, "What did you mean by that two-word reply?"
- Leherenn 6y agoIt can be quite useful when replying to each point though, you can quote each one independently since they're not merged into one big blob of text. Not saying it's impossible otherwise of course, just slightly more convenient.
