[All Hands] Going Forward

22 May 2023, 06:32 #138433
Hi all,

This will be a rough discussion, but a necessary one for our org. After a careful review, our analysts have determined that the Orb is simply not hitting the market as expected, and competing platforms are vastly outstripping our metrics.

In place of in-house jokes, goofs, riffs, and gags, Orb members will be provided with a standard set of reshareable humor formats and templates for increased interopability with a general audience in today's growing digital landscape. A few key directions we will be ramping up over the next week include: SpongeBob reaction GIFs, relatable comics about ADHD, and telling people to touch grass.

As always, the Orb remains committed to our mission to provide quality entertainment to readers and contributors alike.

Hi lung,

Thanks for voicing your concern. Standardized, mainstream reactions from Giphy and Gfycat clipped from popular animated and live-action television shows will help maximize adoption and growth of the Orb, and all Orb members are encouraged to migrate to them. Your Orb Project Manager will oversee your team's adoption of these new guidelines. Any concerns should be sent to your Project Manager's Strategic Representative, who will file a ticket to initiate discussion with Orb Resources within 6 months. We are working hard to make your voices heard.
