Option to disable threads
I am new to mattermost but this thread thing sucks.
I want to reply to a message in the same chat. 99.99999% of the time the response thread only contains a single reply and its not worth the hassle.
So please add an option to disable threads, or at least an easy way to reply in same chat that does not include manually copying the text and adding >

We don't make use of threads because we're a small team. I do a lot of work with code and creating issues which means I need to copy and paste to and from MM multiples times a day. Whenever I go to copy something out of a message the click registers and opens a new thread. This is frustrating. I've read elsewhere that the MM team doesn't want to disable threads because it's core to the architecture. That's not what we're asking for. We just want to disable that click. Move it to an icon on a message, something that's not as casual as "click anywhere to start a thread". So pretty please, with sugar and a cherry on top, make threads less frustrating when you don't want, need, or use threads anyway.
