FWIW, I was also a threads nay-sayer but I've since seen the light

Remember the irc support channels where conversations and problem/solution dialogs were constantly muxed with other conversations / dialogs?

Imagine each question being a root message, and all of the dialog / suggestions / answers being in a thread. Also makes it super convenient for search.

In addition to that I find that beyond a certain channel / DM count it's a lot easier to follow up on things with threads

Give it a shot, try to get your whole team on board. You can always revert back to not using them later :)

yes! I actually love that format! it's how I grew up!

I'll recognize that I'm a bit of an oddball in that respect nowadays, but it can work, at least with a small enough room. I love having all the conversations cross over one another and just being able to read back and follow them.
