Tips
- Name the specific action you are thankful for. 'Thanks for the 40 bug reports' lands better than 'thanks for your support'.
- Tag people only if they are comfortable being named publicly.
- Do not attach a sales pitch to a thank you post. Keep it separate.
- Thank people close to the moment. A thank you weeks later feels like an afterthought.
Frequently asked questions
Should I tag people in a thank you post?
Tag them when their contribution was public, such as open source or speaking at your event. For private help, ask first or thank them without a handle.
How often should I post thank you posts?
After genuine moments: launches, milestones, events, or the end of a year. Too frequent and they lose meaning.
