We actually stopped doing video calls and do exclusively audio, with or without sharing screens or apps like miro/figma, and I feel like stress dropped meaningfully. Video calls are awful, they add noise and delayed visual cues that just confuse the brain.
- whywhywhywhy 4y agoWill agree the high framerate of talking over a Figma document is good for communicating that doc way better than screenshare. But we moved all design ideation and strategy to IRL because something about the delay, audio quality and only one person talking at once kills the ability to think and problem solve. It’s like because your brain is so focused in deciphering the meeting that it can’t get into connection building mode that drives new ideas.
