Nobody uses threads, look at any public slack. They are too difficult and unfriendly to use. The entire idea of a "thread" is broken in the slack ecosystem if you can just post in the channel without starting a new one. It makes no sense.
The fact at that slack has to blog about how to search proves my point, IMO. Gmail doesn't need a post about that. I'm talking about context, which is where search fails, because threads don't work. I can find keywords in slack just fine (which is all the blog post talks about, really). I can't find and save an entire conversation about something important.
:/ I've tried slack and all the shortcuts. It fails as a business tool. Simple email and chatting produces more productivity.
