Hi again, Education enthusiasts! Every industry has its pros and cons, that goes without saying. But wouldn’t it be nice if you could just wave a magic wand and solve the most glaring of your industry’s problems? Well, I’m giving you one! For me, it’d be budgets.

Hi there, Government enthusiasts! Every industry has its pros and cons, that goes without saying. But wouldn’t it be nice if you could just wave a magic wand and solve the most glaring of your industry’s problems? Well, I’m giving you one! I'm very curious how people on the inside would answer this question. I have one…

Hi there! Nice to meet you all. My name is Monique and I am a member of Atlassian’s Community team. In a past life, I was an English instructor (and even though I now work in tech, I am still a voracious reader). I am constantly on the hunt for a good read, whether to learn or to relax. A resource that I reference often is…

Hi there! Nice to meet you all. My name is Monique and I am a member of Atlassian’s Community team. In a past life, I was an English instructor (and even though I now work in tech, I am still a voracious reader). So I've worked in the Education industry myself! I am constantly on the hunt for a good read, whether to learn…

We've officially been a community for one year this week, and we've come a long way. (Look at all those release notes...) We want to hear your stories: What's your favorite Atlassian Community memory? What's your favorite thing about being here? Who are the users and Champions who have helped make your experience special?…

One of the best things about working from home is that my husband makes french press coffee for us every morning. I put mine in a cafe au lait. Are you drinking coffee, tea, water, straight vodka? Share here!

Hello community! Today we’re releasing a feature called Atlassian Recommended Answer. This will be used by our community support team to help keep our most visible and highly trafficked content useful and up-to-date.

Hello, community! Here with another edition of community release notes. What's new, what's coming up, what you may have missed. New: Hot off the press, we have a new badge for sharing your favorite Trello Template. Have fun with this one, Trello fans! Updated: Remember when you could have spaces in your username, then you…

Short and sweet community release notes today! Updated: The tagging system will no longer allow spaces in tags, and will now automatically hyphenate them. Which means you can type multi-word tags without the hyphens and the hyphens will magically appear! I just did it below when I typed "community release notes" in this…

As you may have noticed, we have been retiring our old monthly challenge badges, and in many cases replacing them with permanent badges. Today, we’re removing the last of the Challenge badges, and issuing a commemorative badge called Rainbow Collector. This goes out to those users who earned most or all of those colorful…

That's right, today we're announcing not just a new badge but a whole new badge series! This one for Answers Posted. But don't we already have badges for answers, Mo? you might be asking. We do have a badge series for providing Accepted Solutions, but this series is for providing answers in general. Along with our Answerer…

It's time to celebrate our April winners of the Random Acts of Community badge! The 2019 Community Year in Review was a glorious fountain of data. Inspired by that post, I asked @Ali Sanne who was the one millionth person to join our community in 2019? And being the data guru that she is, she had an answer for…

The Random Acts cup overfloweth this month, so our three awards have become... well, a few more than that. But who doesn't love spreading around some Random Acts of Community? Our first award goes to Tel Aviv Community Leader @Gal Fatal! He has gone above and beyond to support his fellow leaders by offering to present at…
