Agree with these takes. My company's system having the channel #eng-<team name>-lobby as a q/a forum for all teams has been incredible for spreading information, although I could imagine some cultures where it wouldn't work as well. The emojis they have for "Thank you" and "I'm looking into it" seem a bit ambiguous; my company has several "thank you" emotes, but nothing dedicated to the latter. Not sure what we should add.

At my place we use :eyes: for I'm looking at it, but feel free to also look, and a custom emoji of the word "onit" for I'm taking responsibility for it.

There are also dedicated "thank you" and "done" emojis which feel great to see appear or to post, due to the unambiguous positive terminal message.
