What do people think about adding a "solved" or "answered" custom emoji to Slack? We use one at work, and it's nice to see at a glance if a topic has been solved/answered. Otherwise people are diving into comment threads, or just assuming something is solved. The risk being someone marks something that isn't solved/answered as such, but the risk of that is pretty low...

I’ve edited my messages with a

prefix.. but an emoji is more fun, and easier to add/remove as needed 🙂 Oh, and could be added by not the author, too… which could be a plus.
So, guess that’s a +1 from me, then 😄

I like this idea!
b
Who manages this slack?
c
Hmm.. of course Pants is using Slack’s platform for communication.. (how could I’ve not seen this pun earlier..? 😛 )

Slack is a good fit, so that makes sense. We just need to find out who can stitch this all together.

I usually use checkmark for this. Joshua what do you use at your company?
b
Eventually you make a mental mapping? Green bar == "solved"
Yeah I think any text is unreadable 🤷‍♂️

I think DONE is readable?
h
yeah I like that
b
"Done" is also more useful
this is fine fire 2
h
OK, that's it

Haha, ok cool. Are you referring to the zombie sign as a readable done sign? (It’s OK with me, I can learn to interpret it 😛 )

Is that not readable?
b
I think it depends on your Slack font settings?
h
That's an image?

I think all content scales with your font size. When I
Ctrl +
the emojis get more pixels
Ahh not font size, per se. It's considered "zoom"
h
Aha
c
Right, I’ll have to zoom quite a bit, then it’s readable 😛
