A method of enabling distributed collaboration with sentiment indicators is disclosed. The method comprises obtaining a set of computer-executable instructions, which when executed cause a client device of one or more client devices to operate a graphical user interface (GUI). The GUI is configured for: receiving text via a first area of a screen of the GUI; estimating a sentiment of the text; determining that the estimated sentiment exceeds a certain level of negativity; and after the determining, requesting a confirmation of releasing the text or an update of the text. The method further comprises receiving a response to the request and sending the text to a server; and transmitting the set of computer-executable instructions to a first client device of the one or more client devices.
