View and reply to Discussions in Plain

If you’re a frequent flyer of our changelog, you’ll have noticed we’ve been shipping updates to discussions over the past few weeks. June shall forever be known as “discussion month” at Plain, because we’ve got another one for you today.

This week, we’ve released the ability to view and reply to discussions – directly in Plain.

We initially launched discussions to make it easier for you to collaborate in Plain. We followed-up last week with allowing you to start discussions directly in Plain, and from this week, you can fully lead discussions from within Plain without having to jump back and forward from Slack.

Speed up your workflow by starting, replying to, and viewing discussions without ever leaving Plain. To view and reply to a discussion, just hit “discussion in #channel” on the sidebar and – like magic – you can collaborate with your teammates immediately. We’ve also introduced rich text formatting to discussions so you can respond in the format you need to.
