Talk
All plansGroup channels and DMs into sidebar sections of your own, like Customers or Launch, that only you see and that follow you to every device. The rail on the left collects your DMs, mentions and thread replies, with a count on each. Ctrl+K jumps to any conversation or section, and the keyboard shortcuts are the same as Slack's.
For People in twenty channels who live on the keyboard.
Click the plus next to Channels and choose Create a section. Give it a name and, if you like, an emoji. Right-click a conversation, or use its menu, and pick a section under Move to; New section makes one and moves it there in one go. Click a section's name to fold it, and folded sections still show conversations with something new. Your sections are the same on all your devices, and nobody else sees them.
The narrow column on the far left holds your workspaces at the top, each with a number or a dot when something waits there, and under them DMs, Activity, To-dos, Workflows and Meetings, each with a count. DMs lists every direct message newest first with its last message and unread count. Activity gathers mentions, missed huddles and replies in your threads, filtered to All, Mentions or Thread replies.

Press Ctrl+K, or Cmd+K on a Mac, start typing a channel or person's name, and press Enter. Unread conversations show a dot. It opens the app's sections too: type DMs, Activity, Meetings, To-dos, Workflows, Inbox, Call center, Phone, People, Drafts & sent or Later, or another word for one like mentions or dialpad, and the section comes first with its own shortcut beside it.
Ctrl+Shift+K opens DMs, Ctrl+Shift+M Activity, Ctrl+Shift+S Later and Ctrl+Shift+D the dialpad. Ctrl+Shift+H starts, joins or leaves the open conversation's huddle, and Ctrl+Shift+Space mutes or unmutes you on any call. Alt with the arrow keys moves through the sidebar, with Shift for the next unread conversation. Press Ctrl+/ for the whole list inside the app. The desktop app gets every key, even the ones a browser keeps for itself.
Drag the divider between the sidebar and the conversation to make the sidebar wider or narrower, the way you would in Slack. The side panel's divider works the same, so a thread can have more room, and a canvas keeps its own width. Double-click a divider to go back to the default, and Freesbe remembers the widths on each computer and browser.
Sidebar sections, the rail and quick switcher is included in every plan, including Free.
