Slack is in my humble opinion the best tool ever built to communicate with your colleagues.

But sometimes, you may feel like you’re being spammed by thousand of messages, and it can be a real pain in the a.. to go from one channel to another, from one person to another to read all you newly received messages.

FORTUNATELY, there’s a solution on the desktop version of Slack. All you have to do is activate the ALL UNREADS button.

If you don’t see the ALL UNREADS button at the top of your sidebar, just go to Preferences > Advanced > Channel List > Turn on All Unreads
