Another idea:

@juliushaertl this is probably related? nextcloud/spreed#6292 |
I like all the ideas :-) Very cool! |
A cool thing that Discord does is they have an "Active now" section in the right sidebar where you see what friends are doing. Not my screenshot, but as an example on the right: |
Another thing that I think we discussed in the past for Talk if I remember correctly @nickvergessen @karlitschek: That you could use nicely for e.g. coworking in remote work environments, more spontaneous and with less scheduling. |
Brainstorming results of the Groupware team
|
A bunch of relevant topics for this are already part of 30, but we are pretty much full then as is. As preparation for 31 @AndyScherzinger and I suggest that as preparation for the next planning meeting there is a brainstorming among teams to find fitting items (either already existing or new ones, like @ChristophWurst did with Groupware). These we can then talk about in the next planning to be somewhat prepared for 31 already. @juliushaertl (already mentioned) @nickvergessen @ChristophWurst @artonge (replacement for @sorbaugh) |

@sorbaugh @DaphneMuller @tobiasKaminsky could you also have a quick brainstorm with your teams to see if there's anything that you could do towards this goal? |
Problem
Working remotely, you are not as connected to your colleagues because you do not meet them as regularly or see them in a physical office on a daily basis.
Current state
There are already a lot of things we do to connect people:
Possible solutions and improvements
We can do a lot more things to connect people further
@jancborchardt's ideas:
@nimishavijay's ideas:
Friendlier screen when you start a conversation: When you first create a conversation with someone, what shows up right now is a blank screen with a "You created this conversation" message and a timestamp. It could show more about the person itself, even if it's just the avatar and role or a short text that encourages conversation (ref Slack's 1on1s)
Better visibility of local time zone of colleagues: Currently, the time zone of the colleague is shown in the avatar menu. Just like showing when a colleague is out of office/on vacation, we can also show a notice when you are sending a message to a person in a timezone outside of their working hours ("It is currently 3:40 AM for Sam Doe. Maybe send a silent message" or something)
Convert time zones into local time zone: Discord does a cool thing where you can send a time formatted in a specific way to make it show up in your colleague's messages in their timezone. (Eg: I type "Let's meet at /time:11:00CET for the review?" and it shows up as "Let's meet at
15:30 IST
for the review?" for my colleague in India)Comments in Text: There are comments and chat options in the sidebar, but the collaboration technique that came up the most often in the internal design calls is highlighting a sentence and leaving a comment for your colleague. This is currently possible in office, but not so in Text. Comments in lines text#185
Share your ideas :)
