Re:No one is talking about the biggest problem with Slack

I think there's a difference between asking Slack to police it, versus just having the ability to mute a conversation or limited do not disturb.
There are conversations where you need to be more or less involved, and choosing your level of involvement on a per conversation basis, rather than on the entire account would be helpful.
Of course it looks like a minor "feature request" but I'm sure rolling that out would actually be a bit of an under taking. I know that I had to cull the channels I was in and other conversations so that the alerts I was receiving were actually pertinent to me, especially on the mobile app. Not as much of a problem on Desktop, but none the less.
