I think the problem here is that a lot of people (myself included) will understand the term "office hours" as being the typical time window that people work in the office - i.e. 8am to 5pm.
This might be exacerbated with non-native english speakers which you'll see a lot around here.
The new title you suggested doesn't fix anything (at least for me it doesn't). Maybe consider using more commonly known terms to refer to the fact that your opening up you calendar to video calls with anyone that shows up?
- simonw 6y agoI considered that point of confusion too, but I decided I'm OK with people who are unfamiliar with the term "office hours" needing to click through and read the article. I picked "consider running office hours" because hopefully the word "running" there is slightly less likely to imply "consider only working 9-5pm". I've added a note about the better German term "Sprechstunde" to both the article and my Calendly description: https://calendly.com/swillison/datasette-office-hours https://calendly.com/swillison/datasette-office-hours
