Direct messages and mention groups

A direct message is a conversation with one person, started from their name anywhere in chat. Add more people and it becomes a small private conversation.

Direct message or channel? If someone joining the company next year would benefit from reading it, it belongs in a channel. Decisions made in DMs are invisible to everyone else and have to be explained again later. DMs are for the things that genuinely concern only those people.

Mention groups. Rather than typing five names, make a group with a handle that notifies all of them.

1. 1Administrer grupper → Ny gruppe.
2. 2Give it a Gruppenavn, a handle and optionally a Beskrivelse (valgfrit).
3. 3Tilføj nogen … to fill it.
4. 4Opret.

Then one mention reaches the group, and it stays right as people join and leave — which the five names in your head do not. Kun gruppens opretter eller en administrator kan gøre det applies to editing it.

A name that is not a mention notifies nobody. If you type someone's name as plain text, chat tells you: Ikke en omtale — Det her er ren tekst, så ingen får besked. Vælg hvem du mente: Pick the person from the list, or they will never know you wrote it.
