Ability to turn off chat reply/threads feature
The chat replies feature may be cool for some specific reasons, but most of the time is not helpful. The thread it creates is also hard to see compared to normal chat messages. It would be nice to be able to toggle this feature on or off. Similar to how you can turn off nigh mode
We have heard the feedback in this idea & its comments and reworked chat replies to reduce noise. By allowing users to reply directly to a specific message in a thread, only the user being responded to will be @'ed, rather than the user whose comment initiated the thread. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

At minimum, the "click on a message to reply" needs a toggle. I frequently copy and paste messages from chat and this feature has made it impossible to do so without opening a thread, copying the message, and closing the thread.
