Wow, love this. Such an innovative, and incredibly valuable tool! I'm remote 80% of the time, and these are the interactions I miss the most. VERY excited for Donut to help bring them back!

It's becoming clear that our working relationships are suffering. I'm excited to see how this can help improve how we collaborate.

We are obsessed with Watercooler at Beyond Pricing! We participated in the beta and the number one question everyone had was "can we please have this permanently moving forward?" It's great for relationship building and giving team members an easy opportunity to connect around something other than work. And how else would I know my colleagues' favorite type of potato?!

Such a great idea - this is a big challenge for our team going from a small shared office space to onboarding new people remotely. And thx for thinking of us introverts. the Zoom fatigue is real!

I've been doing this manually for the past few months, and coming up with questions to post in our slack channel weekly. Excited to incorporate this, and engage my team further!

Hi there, my company was early testers to Watercooler and I can't say enough great things about the new feature. Individuals (including myself) have been expressing their need to connect with people but not constantly over Zoom or Google Hangouts. It has been great to add super fun/funny questions to share in our Slack channel and watch my co-workers engage with the question. I've received a lot of positive feedback and I am excited to keep utilizing this moving forward (:

As a manager of a mid-sized team, it's admittedly been a struggle to keep moral up and push further on team building. This seems like it would alleviate both problems with little to no lift on our end. We're also all a bit fatigued on zoom happy hours!

?makers I love this idea! I tried to add Watercooler to my private channel but the private channel does not appear on the list of channels that I can add. How can I add Watercooler to my private channel?
