Took me a second to find the per-conversation notification override and, wow, that changed the vibe. I muted the noisy group, left alerts on for one person, and finally stopped missing the important pings. Threads sync fast enough that I kept hopping between desktop and phone without thinking about it. No drama here, just a calmer day. Would love a few more theme options, but as a messaging tool that does the basics cleanly, it clicks.
