Slack introduces threaded posts to make conversations easier to track
Workplace messaging service Slack is set to roll out a new feature that will make it easier to track longer conversations.
Slack Threads
Currently, conversations are hosted in channels where all users are free to post comments in chronological order. This sometimes causes a disjointed conversation, making it harder to commence older conversations. As a result, it has unveiled ‘Threads’ as a solution.
The company said: “Discussions can move quickly and cover a lot of ground. They evolve — and branch off — as people share insights, ask questions, and introduce new topics (or resurface old ones).
With the sector getting busier with Facebook at Work and Microsoft Workplace looking to grow their respective audiences, Slack will benefit from improving its core product as much as possible.
