Dear Microsoft Team (especially UX'ers at MS), may I know why it's almost end of Q2 2021 and replying to a comment is still NOT A FEATURE on desktop app? I see you guys put a lot of effort by off...

Oh, of course.Such important features like "Together Mode". I can now feel like I am in a physical meeting but I cannot reply to a message. Awesome.
I work for a large financial institution, reply is in the Teams messaging but not the chats which is what 80% of people use. The lack of reply to is literally crippling our organization. This is supposed to be a communication tool and all context is being lost, hundreds of needless separate 'topic' chats are started and it's not performant to switch between chats or teams....this product sucks.
Not that far away now though. I know they (Microsoft) are working hard on implementing the feature and an update will be posted in the link below when the have some news. Best you can do is to vote on the UV to stay updated when the status changes from "working on it".

The "Release" was postponed again, to "September CY2021".
I don't think we are going to have it this year.
- Thanks, ChristianJBergstrom, just enabled public preview here to finally have this feature!
- At least in testing internally now. Updated by Teams engineering in the UV link August 24th.
