PH fam! 👋 The Thursday team (https://thursday.social/) has been quite busy over the last few weeks - working on not one, not two, but three new mixers. Super excited to launch them here today! While working from the office, water cooler chat was a daily ritual for most of us. Though probably lasting only minutes, they played a crucial role in making us feel emotionally connected at work. And to some extent, they even helped deepen trust. Well, we don’t have water coolers anymore in our virtual offices, but we have got something even better for you - our 3 new conversational mixers - ranging from fast-paced chats to thoughtful exchange of ideas. ⚡ Speed 1-on-1s: Fast-paced & engaging. This mixer is 3 rounds, 4 minutes each, like going on a speed dating session, but with your teammates! 🧠 Mindful talks: From appreciation to inspiration, choose a topic and get into small groups for a discussion guided by prompts - 1 round, 12 mins. 👋 Know your team: Relish quality conversations and get to know your teammates better in this 1-on-1 mixer. 1 round, 10 mins, talk your hearts out! Try these out with your team, and let me know what you think of them. Btw, this time we’ve got a spectacular deal for the PH family. It’s a limited-time deal - everything unlimited ♾️ for 1 full year for 🔥 $179 🔥. It’s a $1200+ value deal just for $179 😲 and it expires in 7 days, people… tick-tock tick-tock ⏰ Oh, and just like with our previous launches, this time as well, we built this public PH launch tracker to share our launch data (visitors, countries, browsers, etc.) with you: https://thursday.social/conversa... P.S. I’ll be here all day and will be happy to answer any questions.

Hello PH! Deepa here, founder of Thursday. 👋 It is always a pleasure and privilege to launch here on PH. This one, in particular, has been an exciting launch in the making. It started off by exploring the best formats that spark interesting conversations in a remote setting. We, in fact, experimented with a few on our own team. 😀 Mindful Talks was the toughest one to crack - the experience had to be right on, and the topics and prompts had to be meaningful. I’m super happy with the final product and very proud of my team. They have worked very hard on this and have done a brilliant job. So yes, for me, the speed one is the most fun one, while the mindful one is the most meaningful one. But why don’t you try these out yourself with your team and let me know which one your team enjoyed the most? I’ll be around if you have any questions for me.

Jarmo Ahonen
@almost_designer we are working hybrid, but I myself am the only one on this city, so i am "remote" even if I'm in the office :D

I like your UI! Somehow reminds me of good old Nintendo games! :) There are benefits in remote work but all the social side can diminish all too easily. I hope this helps on that matter. :) Congratulations on the launch.

@ichibanpasi Thanks Pasi, we put a lot of effort in getting the vibes just right. Tactile and fidgety, just like Nintendo. 😉 I agree remote has some downsides, but that’s what we’re trying to solve for with Thursday and make remote joyful!
