On a similar note, please don't send a private message to someone asking a technical question more suitable for a channel. It puts unfair pressure on the receiver, denies others who could help the opportunity to do so, and doesn't help others who have the same question (including the answer not being archived in search).
- logbiscuitswave 6y agoAt my BigCorp just finding the right channel can be very difficult and channels can be a lightly monitored dead end. That being said I have no problem if someone says, “can you ask this on the Foobar channel?”
- city41 6y agoYeah I get that. That was the case at my last job as well. But I also said "can you ask in foo channel?" several times a day, every day. It truly got old and was a pretty big distraction. That's why whenever nohello comes up, I make my original comment.
