T4S - Threads for Slack Redesign

Hi guys,

After moving to Slack from using Flowdock I really miss the Flowdock threads into Slack and decided to do a redesign of Slack and incorporate some cool stuff that Flowdock has and add some more such as My Workspace!

Let me tell you what started me into doing this:

I and my team work remotely and all the discussion is handled via chat, we discuss drafts, code, etc. and Slack sucks bad at helping us discussing those...we constantly miss messages and collaboration is torn apart!

The discussions feel like a freaking puzzle, no visual indicator what message is about and you can't reply properly without losing focus, not to mention when you reply the message is hidden if you don't select that stupid checkbox! And you can't upload images to threads? What the hell...we discuss a design ofc there are iterations and it should be done inside one thread...anyways I hope Slack will do a better job with threads because has other kinds of cool stuff but threads suck big time!

And btw this is my 1st project design in Sketch (yeah I know just moved from PS to Sketch :P)
