This is rolling out slowly per their support team, so if you don't see it yet - you are lucky. Enjoy it while it lasts.

I could be in the minority, but split view is one of the best features of all time in Slack for me (productivity, sensory and monitoring wise). If you aren't familiar with the feature or are confused on the feature I am referring to, I am providing an screenshot here that was provided to me by Slack support (I redacted their information).

Confirmation screenshot from support here, redacted personal info.

Split view let you have a thread open and it would persist as a side bar when navigating away from the channel the thread was located within. Now if you click on anything outside of the channel that you currently have a thread open in, the thread will close.

The new feature, windows in my opinion is clunky, far away from the original window and inferior to split view. I get bothered by notifications easily so I like to have a thread up to monitor while navigating into other channels and seeing other discussions.

Just want to say a quick RIP to split view, it was my favorite and I really hope they will reconsider.

Just me?
