Slack guidelines

Sharing guidance on how your team uses Slack helps all members ensure they communicate well async. You can create this content together, or assign one person to take the lead.

Guidelines

Following these guidelines will make us more consistent, predictable, and effective in our communication.
Assume best intent. Sometimes tone and context are lost in text.
Default to posting in public channels. Use private groups and DMs for sensitive material or for coordinating to avoid spamming public channels.
Think about channel size before using @here.
When in doubt, post in our team channel first, and we can give guidance.
