We primarily use Slack for written communication and Google Meet for virtual meetings.
As for Slack, we have lots of functional channels, but we also have a #fun channel where we add memes, tips, music, or some fun stories. It's crucial that if the convo dies down, the chat leader makes a comeback or the channel key holder.
For Google Meet, we have smaller meetings for our growth team daily as well as a whole team meeting weekly. These are half an hour-long calls that help us track where everyone is at, it helps balance out the remote feeling.
@nabeel_amir Couldn't agree more! It's often overlooked as fun is not the primary goal.
The sooner we realise that this balance needs to exist, we will create better functioning teams that love to be a part of such companies, don't you think?

15 minutes daily catch up. Each person mentioned 3 key points:
- What they worked on
- The challenges
- What they will be working on that day
Feeling connected with the team and building culture remotely are pretty challenging. Great communication and conversations are often key.
We use Slack and Zoom for work related things. And we also use our own product - Thursday - to connect casually with each other, play some games or even brainstorm.

Google chat, It is good because it records everything in one place.
Report
Through google meet & zoom for video calls and google chat for written communications.
It depends on what project we are working on but we primarily use Trello Boards to track our tasks, Google Meet for meetings, Skype for instant messaging, and Google Drive to share files.
