Funny. Every day at work, I lament that Slack's threads don't work like Discord's. What do you like about them?

I like that they are unobtrusive and low cost. Easy to spin off a small discussion without bothering others.

In discord, a thread becomes a big visible thing in the sidebar. More than a couple and you're annoying everyone on the whole server. Completely the opposite of what I want.

You cannot search in discord threads. Until recently, there wasn't even a way to go to the first message in a discord thread without scrolling up manually.
