Haven't used Stride yet but as someone who hates always-on chat I could see myself really appreciating its deep work oriented features: mute notifications, allow others in the channel to mark things as "task", "decision", "outcome" so you can go back and find important things you missed while deep working.

Something about this comment feels very much like an ad.

Probably the strange link at the bottom of the comment, linking to the site we are talking about.

Especially because you can always mute Slack or use do not disturb as well.

But can Slack help you rethink team communication, or redefine the way teams move work forward, together? I know I want a messaging tool that delivers results.

I have no connection of any sort to Stride (or any chat app for that matter, other than a few I use, which doesn't include Stride yet). This aspect of chat has just been a point for me for years. Looks like Stride and Twistapp are both attempting to solve it, among others. Wouldn't surprise me if there were some Slack plugins to do similar things as well.

You might appreciate https://twistapp.com then.

That looks like a big improvement too, thanks!

No problem! I've used the company's TODO app (Todoist) for 2 years now, and I like the company as a whole. They're 100% remote too, IIRC.

Oooh, this looks really nice. Threads in Slack still feel like an afterthought, and this appears to do them right.

It makes me miss forums/BBs! With proper subforums, etc.

When I looked over Strides features I thought the same thing. Do not understand the backlash at all.
