I normally don’t share changes that we get automatically, and I have no intention too do this again, , but given the popularity of chat elsewhere (IRC,Slack, Discord) I thought it worth sharing here:
Easier access to chat threads
We’ve made it easier to find and participate in your followed chat threads with the My threads link in the sidebar. You can also see all the active threads in your chat channels within the thread panel, so you can find conversations that are interesting to you.
Improvements to group chat channels
Group chat channels got some much-needed improvements - they are easier to create, you can add users to existing group chats, and you can give your group chats fun or descriptive names.
Chat mobile redesign
We’ve updated chat’s design on mobile to make it easier to get around and more enjoyable to use. More improvements are planned here that will continue to improve upon chat’s mobile experience.
