Hello fellow makers! 💜 This little icebreaker generator has been a real labour of love for our team! Most other icebreaker lists we found on the internet asked questions that: 1️⃣ Could be answered with a yes or no, which kills the conversation 2️⃣ Asked questions that were not inclusive (e.g. asking questions about sports or question that make assumptions about upbringing) 3️⃣ Included questions we felt would be anxiety-inducing in a group setting ✨ We set out to change that with this icebreaker generator ✨ Over at Parabol, we create a free online meeting tools for teams to run standups, retrospectives, and poker estimation meetings. Icebreakers are a core part of our product and every meeting begins with one. We wanted to share the work we did building inclusive icebreakers with an even broader audience. 🎗 So why not bookmark this resource for your next 1:1 meeting, team check-in, retro, or standup! Love from the team at Parabol 💜

@boroskoyo That's a great shout! Perhaps we can build that into the interface on V2. Before we build something like that, the product is open source, so folks could add suggestions as issues in our GitHub repo! https://github.com/ParabolInc/ic...
