Jon and I problem-solved how to spread Effective Altruism effectively, and came up with the idea of a catchphrase that we thought would appeal to people’s emotions well: “Be a Superdonor!”

What does "problem-solved" mean in that sentence? Something besides "brainstormed"?

We brainstormed using effective decision-making strategies, i.e., ones informed by psychological research on decision making.
