Ask HN: How do you communicate in a remote startup?

We are a remote company. Everything is going well. No plans to be in person, but I’d say we can do a better job at communicating. Any tips or articles to read?

If you're in similar time zones, try https://www.gather.town/ ?

I've used it for remote conferences, and I like its 2D UI. Real sense of space there.

This is what my last, 6 person, startup used, and it was really helpful. It lowered the barrier to having a quick discussion, since you could see if someone was at their "desk" or busy in a meeting.

Also you can see if other teammates are having a discussion or co-working in a common area, which made for some ad-hoc co-working sessions.
