Matrix threads don't work like Discord threads - they are effectively just „fancy replies”, not independent rooms/channels (any „thread-like appearance” is handled purely client-side - and even then, most Matrix clients don't handle it particularly well), and as such, they are bridged as replies to Discord. _Discord users will not be aware that you sent this message inside a thread - it will go directly onto the main channel. If the thread you sent this message in is old, such a random reply may be distracting to Discord users!_\n\nFor the sake of Discord parity (as well as better support in numerous Matrix clients - as stated above, most Matrix clients don't handle threads particularly well, and they just render in-thread messages as fancy replies), it is recommended to send threaded messages inside a separate Matrix room that gets bridged to Discord. If you sent this message in a pre-existing Matrix thread, please look around to see if anyone has created such a room for it. If this is the first message (ie. the thread was just created) or noone's made a thread-room for this thread, it is recommended you create one with `/thread <Thread Name>` (on Matrix) and continue the conversation there.\n\n*You can read more about the rationale behind this design choice [here](https://gitdab.com/cadence/out-of-your-element/src/branch/main/docs/threads-as-rooms.md).*",
