Link to a channel in chat like #announcements
It would be nice if I can point to an other cahnnel. Mostly useful for public ones, like:
free beer! find details in #announcements
but it would be even better if we can point to any other, maybe in other team too.
Thanks Tamás for the feature idea!
This is in fact available on Mattermost with the ~-sign. For instance, you can post:
> free beer! find details in ~announcements

It's good it's there, BUT it's a very poor choice of symbol - lot of people don't know `~` even exist let alone how to type it. And since `#` is already taken for tags, I suggest `@@` alias, or even better, allow people to search through `@` same as other people, just when they select channel, put the `~` there for them :-)
