I have a question about expectations here on Slack.
How do you all feel about getting a DM without requesting a DM? I don't mind it if I have been having a conversation with someone...but to get one out of context (typically followed by a reply in a thread "just sent you a DM"
Not gonna lie, it drives me nuts haha. But am I the only one?
I always ask if someone wants me to shoot them a DM or invite them to send me one, etc. Or it is clear that I'm asking/talking about a potential collab/job/etc.
Am I crazy?
community guidelines say that people should ask permission to DM in a public channel first
if you're getting spam / unwanted DMs, pls let me know
Thanks for this @Jimmy Daly (Superpath)! That's what I thought.
I'm not getting anything too bad. I just see a lot of people DMing without asking first in other channels and wanted to double check!
i know it happens a lot, hard to moderate for since we can't see it. but we are to help!!
And I super appreciate that!
I was just asking to make sure I'm not just being weird about it. Like I said, if it makes sense to move to the DMs, then I don't mind.
But I'm glad to know my line of thinking is in line with the community guidelines! Maybe I'm not TOO crazy after all 😉
