Archiving direct messages
It would be great to have the possibility to archive direct messages, the same way it is possible to archive chans. Or is it already possible?

Hey Matthieu! If you hover over a direct message in your channel list (on the left side), you can click on the "x" to remove it from your sidebar.
Is that helpful?
There is also a setting to automatically close direct message channels from the sidebar after no activity, which your System Admin can turn on: https://docs.mattermost.com/administration/config-settings.html#autoclose-direct-messages-in-sidebar-experimental
