retire thanksbot reminders

[tkellen]

When this lands, Thanksbot will no longer randomly attempt to remind us that we should take a moment to express some gratitude through the medium of cute notes authored by our colleagues.

If I were implementing this again, I'd consider it more carefully.

First and foremost, I would have made this opt-in, not opt-out.

If someone opted in, I'd ask further:

• How often would you like to be reminded? Once a month? Randomly? Every day?
• Which of your colleagues would you like to receive messages from?
• Would you prefer not to receive messages from former colleagues?
• On days when you are reminded, would you like to be asked if you could use a reminder first, rather than having one offered blindly because an earlier version of you consented?
• Should a computer be able to inadvertently prompt us to think about something at all?
• Should a colleague?
• Should anyone?

Okay, let me step out of this rabbit hole.

Back to work.

Looking for a :+1: or two before I land this!
