Does your organization use both MS teams and Slack? Why do they use both? Does one provide some advantages over another?

We used to use slack and now we use teams. Just mentioned both because its not specific to any one tool.

#5I prefer typing, writing is so slow. And there is also very important aspect to me: when I type I cannot draw anything and that's great because usually I can't decipher drawings I made while writing with pen and paper.

Corporate uses Teams, Dev/Sys org use Slack. Mergers/Acquisitions complicate everything and ability to implement SSO across everything isn’t always speedy. Teams integration with Outlook is handy for some things, otherwise Slack is preferred - particularly due to preexisting integrations to pipelines etc.

#8do people use whiteboards at home?
I do. I can safely say all my future dwellings will have whiteboards too. Indispensable for me.
An issue with both notebooks and computers is that once I write/draw something, I don’t have the discipline to revisit. Whereas a whiteboard is always in view and I can reorganise it or add to while going about day to day activities.
The only drawback I’m seeing is the more I use it, the more indispensable I find it.

I don’t have one, or a good spot for one in my home office. But for a few years I’ve used the notebook linked above.

Yes, several.
Apart from self-use, explaining things to a 15 year old and/ or a foreign-to-me gf is solo much easier.
