Reply on Desktop App?
Hello, may I know why it's 2020 and replying to a comment is still NOT A FEATURE on desktop app? Why things like video background made the cut but not Replying To A Comment on Desktop? This is 2020...
- Sep 18, 2021I don't work for Microsoft, but if you'd like to try out the "quoted reply" it's now available in Public Preview.

Positive_energy Sorry that is not the answer.. you are referring specifically to opening a conversation in a "Channel".
As per Microsoft.. the desktop/macOS version is nerfed as far as "reply" goes. It is available in the iOS version of the app where you do a Long press to get reply; unfortunately as with every large enterprise.. good features get rejected because a bully in a suit doesn't understand when a smart engineers explains essential features of a product! Microsoft is certainly not an exception in this regard!
