Why work teams move off a community server
Internal decisions, files, and customer topics need a room built for a team.
Private channels with an owner
A private channel is hidden from non-members, and the owner adds and removes the people in it.
Direct messages for work
A work thread between two people, with files and search in that thread.
Files next to the decision
Attach the export or the draft to the message that explains it, and preview it in chat.
Search the workspace
Find the message and the file after the conversation has moved on.
Team channels
Anyone on the team can find a team channel and invite others to it.
One login for more apps
The same DataBorders account opens docs, flowcharts, and pages.
How to put work chat in its own workspace
Move the internal conversation and leave the community where it is.
1. List what is internal
Staffing, customers, money, and unreleased work.
2. Create those channels in SetSay
Team channels for shared work and private channels for short lists.
3. Post the next decision there
Leave a one-line pointer in Discord for people who still look.
4. Keep Discord for your community
Voice chat and public members can stay where they are.
