A comment on Mattermost – open-source platform for secure collaboration.

It's good that this exists, but Mattermost's threads are very suboptimal.

If Alice posts a message and Bob replies, then _that is_ the thread. If that thread goes into a certain path you can't branch off of it, you can't reply to Alice's original message if you're talking about a different thing.

I don't know if this makes sense, but hopefully you got my point.

You can't also move messages into a thread as admin. Which is a bit annoying.

FYI you can with this plugin [0] and it's actually how we do it ourselves here at Mattermost.

Mattermost PM here, thanks for the feedback!

Are you thinking of Reddit (or HN) style threads?

Happy to create an issue if this is a new request or upvote if there's an existing request
