Years ago I wrote in and had an exchange with someone at Slack regarding "folders" for channels. I begged for the feature, and included some mock screenshots showing how they could do it. This was before Discord did it.
Anyway I got a tone deaf response, and someone on the Slack team passionately arguing that "folders" were too complicated and that nobody needed them and that 21 characters for the names were enough. I wrote back, and they doubled down on how folders were a bad idea.
The response almost turned me off Slack.
Anyway glad they finally changed their tune. Will really help people with dozens of channels stay organized.
