Hey everyone,

Quick question out of curiosity.

I work as a manager in a consulting firm, and a lot of my day goes into communicating across platforms like Slack, WhatsApp, Teams, LinkedIn messages, etc. Switching between all of them sometimes feels a bit messy.

A couple of things I personally struggle with are important tasks getting buried in chats and constantly jumping between apps to keep up with conversations.

Would be great to hear how you handle this in your day-to-day work.

    Unrelated to self hosting: jira or whatever ticketing system your company uses. They tend to have integrations into those other apps where you right click and create a ticket. Then the ticket list is my source of truth.

      Yeah, makes sense, thanks for sharing.

      Having a ticketing system as the source of truth for tasks and assignments is definitely helpful. But I still feel it lacks the live communication part across multiple platforms, so there’s still some switching involved.
