Season 4, Issue 7: 🙅♂️🐙 Let's Jelly
Finally, email collaboration that's Good Enough.
It’s been a minute, friends. We’re excited to share what we’ve been up to, and I think you’ll see that we have a good excuse to explain our recent quiet. Read on!
1. Studio Update
Firstly, newsletter crew, please let us introduce you to our answer to “why is it so hard for teams to share email?” – Jelly.
You can read more about it on the homepage, or on our blog.
We’ve been building this since January, and using it ourselves for almost as long. For our team, it’s a game-changer for how we interact with our shared email. We use it for customer support but also for all the other conversations Good Enough has with the world.
We’ve also been talking to a lot of teams interested in joining our alpha. It seems like every team has managed to lash together a different set of tools and techniques to manage their shared email, which is both a tribute to their ingenuity, and proof positive that we all deserve something better.
If you’re looking for a way to collaborate on email, do yourself a favour and sign up for our waitlist. We are improving Jelly every day.
Pika has had some updates as well!
2. Sharing Is Caring
Steve Albini had a food blog: What I made Heather for dinner.
Fried stuff is great, so long as you get it while it's piping hot. Since our place is small, I can get food from the kitchen to Heather in a heartbeat, so I fry stuff all the time. Usually I make little croquettes or other doughy things and fry them, but I thought they might be getting a little heavy after repetition and have laid off the fried things for a bit.
Indeed!
This day in capybara news…
“Everyone knows that capybaras are pacifists. What’s next? A pika assassin?”
“Pika: chaotic good thief”
“There is an Assassin Rogue subclass, and chaotic good is often the right alignment to play it.”
Look for a D&D cast of Good Enough characters soon. 😂
Meanwhile, people have been writing on Pika!

3. In Conclusion
On top of all the good work we’ve been doing this summer, we’ve also taken some much needed vacation. This allowed us time with friends and family. And time to see some beautiful scenery as well.
We hope you’ve been able to take some time this summer to recharge and reconnect. If you took an amazing picture during your time off, feel free to share it with us and maybe we’ll feature it in a future newsletter. (Even better, write a blog post about it and drop us a link.)
So long, until we write again.
