I. Intro
Threads let you group related messages together within a chat. When you start a new thread, subsequent replies will be nested underneath, keeping the discussion organized and separate from the main chat. This prevents irrelevant notifications for uninvolved group members and makes it easier to follow the flow of the conversation.
II. Steps
Create a thread
Hover over a message and select the Reply in Thread icon. In the Thread pane that appears, send your reply. After you send your reply, a thread for this message is created.

If you want group members to read your reply in a thread, irrespective of whether they are a part of the thread, select Also send to the group before you send your reply. The reply will now appear both in the thread and in the main chat. Additionally, all group members will receive a notification.
Note: If you've created a thread in a private chat, you can select Also send to the chat.
