I deleted a saved reply that sounded like me on a bad day
It was efficient and cold. The longer reply I use now is still a macro. It just does not begin with a policy sentence.

I would not rewrite the product from "The longer reply I use now is still a macro" alone. One narrower test this week would tell you more.
Did "It was efficient and cold" become a conversation that almost paid, or a compliment?
What was the first sign you trusted in "It just does not begin with a policy sentence"?

They are not rude. They are stuck in a workflow I did not design. I am giving it this week as a product problem. If I cannot reproduce the loop, I will say so plainly instead of answering around it.

- Support mail is writing the roadmap whether I like it or not
I answer the inbox myself. The same three questions show up every week. I can keep writing better replies, or I can change the product so those questions die. The second one keeps slipping.

- How much support do you owe a free account?
I answer everyone because the inbox is still small. A few free accounts write every day. The paid ones write less and I am getting to them second.

- Do I add Slack support or keep email on purpose?
A few teams asked to open tickets from Slack. Email is slow and it is also a record I can search. I am worried Slack becomes a second place where promises get made in a hurry.
