Well, this certainly is a modern take on "fishing off the company pier". I certainly would recommend reviewing your company's HR policy before giving this a go, and would strongly warn against telling the Feeld bot that you like any of your superiors or subordinates... also, go read their manifesto — where they talk about RESPECT, CONSENT, and HONESTY. With great power comes great responsibility, and I think that applies doubly in this kind of application. ✌

@chrismessina Yup, I was wondering if it was worth adding a note that some organisations might not be ready for it.

@denull @chrismessina As freelancer, startupper and a coworker I am not very familiar with the HR issues in bigger companies. On the other hand I can see this bot as interesting addition to the Slack chats of coworking spaces. Most of them I have met use it as a prime communication tool for their community. Here is an insightful podcast(https://listen.coworkingweekly.c...) by @alexhillman of Indy Hall, sharing how they uses it in their coworking community.

@rrhoover or an opportunity to clarify company policy!

@rrhoover In our organisation people deal with people, and it works but it is harder when you have to solve people problems on your own. https://www.producthunt.com/post...

It's like "Bang with Friends", but for Slack. Tell me you don't wish you thought of this one first...

I could see this certainly making Slack groups for programming languages, freelancers, and other tech interest groups much more interesting.
