You can now temporarily mute chat channels for a fixed length of time — 15 minutes, 1 hour, 8 hours, or 24 hours. This can be useful when a channel has become busy with a conversation that doesn’t interest you, but you don’t want to miss future content or have to remember to manually unmute yourself later.
You can temporarily mute a channel through the three-dot menu or the channel settings:
When a user selects a duration, the channel is muted immediately for that time period. They won’t receive any notifications about activity in that channel until the selected duration expires.
The original, indefinite mute option is still available; it’s now labeled as “Until I turn it back on” to distinguish it from the new temporary options.
