I have deep collaborative conversations via DM all the time. If anything it's better because it's written.
- rosywoozlechan 4y agoThis is actually not great, because everyone else doesn't benefit, because it's in a DM that nobody else can see. In an office people near by will benefit too by being in earshot.
- lfx 4y agoBut you can copy all of the contents to tickets, emails, etc. All is not lost.
- chank 4y agoDon't know about you, but I generally don't speak loud enough that people outside the conversation generally overhear things. Also, word-of-mouth is a absolute horrible strategy to make sure things are shared across a team.
- u801e 4y agoI've done the same in chat rooms where everyone on the team can read if they want to, even if the conversation is limited to me and another individual.
- whateveracct 4y agoYeah I think there's a place for both honestly. The place I work at encourages using a channel. But when it's deep and freeform, I think DMs is better. Sartre's Look and all that.
