As a user, I'd like the question list to load universally, so that I don't have to wait for it at the start.

Add a button to refresh the list manually, and then that would apply to everybody. Maybe?

The trade-offs:

• I don't want to wait for the list to load, since it's universal.
• I want to update the list after I mark some things with emoji in Slack, so it's easier to see what's left.
• I don't want my list to re-sort or otherwise go crazy every 10 minutes or every time someone else does something.

Think about this. It's really a general issue; think of it as equivalent to a labeling dashboard. Minimize duplication of effort without making the tool annoying.
