TALK
Side conversations that don’t bury the channel.
Reply in a thread, and the channel stays readable. Every thread you’re in has its own page, and every @mention lands in one list.
A thread is marked read when you open it, not when you scroll past.
Threads · Mine / All · Unread
Overview
Every thread, one page.
The Threads page lists each thread you follow as a compact row, with new replies counted. Open one, and it slides in on the right.
Each channel shows its own threads.
The Threads button in a conversation header shows how many have new replies, so you can catch up on one project without reading all of it.
Every @mention in one list.
Mentions collects the messages that name you, your role or @here, with Unread, Read and Starred filters.
