    I want Slack to productize the interaction "This message is important enough to send, perhaps for social purposes, but doesn't feel important enough for an email, and should UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES interrupt the recipient right now."

        Something like shift-enter to send DM in Minding My Manners Mode. Use cases: commenting on someone's social media posts internally, happy birthday and related sorts of socializing, and "I know it's the middle of the night there and want to be respectful of boundaries."

        Until Slack does this, a useful thing that I've seen done is for teams to write up explicit documents on use of comms channels including a "When you need something from me *immediately*, X. When 'by EOD' is fine, use Y. If you Z, I will assume it's optional."

        I believe @derrickreimer is planning to include this exact feature for @PoweredByLevel.

        That would be helpful for all messaging apps, I think. I have an informal system with my brother where we use FB Messenger for 'here's a video/article you'll like and can look at whenever' and use WhatsApp for 'I'd like your attention/a response soon'.

        At my last job at @agrilyst, we had a custom “WYC” emoji, for “when you can.” Our theory was that Slack makes everything feel urgent, so we wanted to make non-urgent messages explicit. Would be nice as a baked-in feature. The idea came from @jameybash and worked splendidly.

        100% this. I feel this isn't a small feature but something absolutely critical for a productive team. We've taken to having DND turned on for everyone 24/7. We then push through messages ("click to send notification') if needs to be read asap but that has a lot of problems too.
