@bradwilson Yeah, it's the same problem Microsoft had with Teams when they first introduced threading.

@jaykul The complaint I consistently heard about Teams (this is several years ago now) was that their chat model basically forced everything into threads. It was very bad at just "stream of consciousness" chatting, which was how 99% of team channels in Slack worked.

Am I alone in this workflow?

• Write a response and post it

• Realize it's a "new answer" instead of a "reply"

• Click "edit" on the new answer

• Copy the Markdown into the "reply" field

• Click cancel on the "edit"

• Post the content in the "reply" box where you meant to in the first place

• Delete the "new answer"

It's basically happening 100%. My brain is just not remembering how I fuck this up Every. Single. Time.
