Please stop making every update require more screen space.
Every time, more chrome, bigger fonts, more padding, more views that take over the whole viewport.

I guess when everybody had an 800x600 screen we had to make the most of them.
Maybe they could bring back the IRC bridge.
I think that could only happen if IRC added support for threading.
It allows me to easily have multiple different conversations in the same channel at the same time.
And, if I need to, in the future, share that conversation with someone, I can link them directly to that one thread.
What would I do otherwise, when I needed a team mate to get up-to speed on a convo that happened months ago... Hey go back to August 8th at 1PM and read everything while filtering out all the things that aren't relavent? Crazy talk!
Edit: I will say for this to work, a higher up at your company needs to slap people when they don't use threads. In my org. our CTO is very good about reminding people to use threads.
Engineers are generally ok and appreciate density but more mainstream users often don't.
I really hate this change too, on my laptop, slack has to be full screen to make sense whereas I can have four screens of terminals and email without issue otherwise. Wish they at least made the design adaptive
