I recently installed Alfy as a way to pair our design team for pair design sessions and to catch up since we’re a remote based company with folks in different regions. Also it reduces the mental load of scheduling something weekly rather keeps things interesting. Alfy’s been great! Super easy to set up and has been running seamlessly for a few weeks now.
