Ask HN: Have screen recording tools improved productivity?
I do a fair number of meeting every day which involves discussion around screen. Earlier it used to happen over a zoom call, now i use mac’s screen recorder or loom, but then i end up in meetings/ sending countless slack msgs/email. These tools (loom) are marketed in a way that makes me believe an utopia of less context switch/ no meeting/ showing > telling. Although theoretically i might buy these ideas but practically I didn’t find much benefits out of these tools working in a team set up in an org. Has anyone objectively feels that these tools improve their productivity? If yes how do you do it? What purpose are those countless slack messages for? Explaining the recordings?
