Please use threads for questions about job posts. Thank you.

@U04V70XH6 maybe the official clojure chat should move to zulip or something that forces threads. seems like we have reached the limits of slack

People are welcome to use any of the several Clojure community hubs online. We've tried encouraging people to use Zulip for years, to very little avail. Happy to continue this conversation in #community-development 🙂

And perhaps when an Admin asks you politely to use threads here, you might respond "Oh, yes, sorry" instead of blaming Slack?

(also, this Slack is not "official" in any way -- it's just one of many volunteer-managed communities -- I think only the clojure Google Group is in any way managed by some of the core Clojure folks? Plus http://ask.clojure.org which is fairly recent)

i appreciate what you are doing, but in reality i have to put a lot effort into making a thread in slack, when my fingers just want to do their own thing and slam on the enter key. i don't know how to make threads, i have to search for the button every time, and i've been using slack for years (before it had threads). is there something i'm missing? is there a way to take my message and turn it into a thread after i've made it, or should i delete them and start threads after i made the mistake?

Unfortunately, Slack has no way to attach a message from a channel as a threaded reply to another post. -- I really wish there was. You would have to delete your post and then ask the question again in a thread. It's up to you whether you want to delete this post/thread -- we just ask that, in future, you try to make the effort to use threads for replies in #jobs and #remote-jobs (so the only top-level posts are actual jobs, and it's easy for each OP/recruiter to track any/all questions in one place for each job) -- and also in populous and somewhat high-traffic channels like #beginners and #clojure

thanks, didn't know these channels were around, cept #clojure ofcourse. i just noticed that there is a subheader/title for each channel, maybe we can specify channels that should have all threaded topics. i wasn't aware that #jobs should be threaded because it seemed like a slow moving channel. for some other channels threads seem like an obvious thing to do.

hey @U0LAJQLQ1 we do have US presence but this is our main site https://www.fundingcircle.com/uk/ 🙂

@U03SY5GF1DW Please provide more details about the role or at least a link. Is it a Clojure job?
