  • Restrict channel posting to replies onlyIn addition to restricting who can post in a channel, channel admins can choose to allow all other channel members to post, but only as a reply to a message.

These chats can also be unarchived if the discussion needs to be re-opened. Admins can also set auto-archive policies from the web portal.
  • Read receipts for messagesThe latest sent message in a 1:1 chat or small group chat or channel (20 members max) can show read receipts of who has read the message so far.
