Usually, when sending emails, I try not respond in a way that does not encourage a long discussion. I try to be concise. I send very precise emails, I don't leave space for pointless wandering of the conversation. I prefer using WhatsApp for fast conversations, or I normally talk with a person face to face, if I need anything. | Usually, when sending emails, I try not respond in a way that does not encourage a long discussion. I try to be concise. I send very precise emails, I don't leave space for pointless wandering of the conversation. I prefer using WhatsApp for fast conversations, or I normally talk with a person face to face, if I need anything. Why? Because it's more immediate. Sometimes I force the person that I need to give me an answer in that moment. | ||
It happens that I get CCed in long threads, but I am not directly involved. The content of the conversation is often not pertinent with what I do, so I don't even read it. | It happens that I get CCed in long threads, but I am not directly involved.

'''Feedback to our UX idea''' | |||
Yes, great. | |||
Difficult to be more selective in choosing the content we want to see than that, indeed. Good idea. | |||
But not applicable in my company, we have so many security policies that they were not even allowing me to download Adobe. | |||
Due to the projects with the clients. Already in the past they had secutiry issues. I think you should consider that. | |||
Maybe your target can be less structured companies. Difficult for the IT department to approve a software different from what they are using. | |||
Your idea is certainly intriguing. In my specific situation, its relevance is somewhat limited as I don't often deal with lengthy discussion threads. However, based on my observations of others' experiences, I can see how this could be a valuable concept. It's an interesting idea. | |||
