Why does it exist in the mobile app but not in the desktop app?!! I don't get it.... I really need this feature because it's very complicated to talk about multiple subject at once with colleagues and create confusion in the chat ...

Yes! Please add ability to reply to a specific message in Chat.
You can do this in Posts. Why not in Chat?
Thanks!

Seriously, it is 2021, every app should have it, including desktop app, don't wait for enough upvotes, otherwise Teams will only be used when we have to...

I can't believe that this still isn't a feature on the desktop app. Surely this should have been in the original version. Not something that is still on the backlog. Just get it done.

Hey Alex, could you provide us with an update please? This is such a crucial feature!

Its hard to understand what is the internal process and information points resulting in the decision to have different user experiences and functionalities for the same app across platforms. Particularly for such a basic function which is absolutely necessary to have a ineligible interaction in groups of more than 4-5 people. Its staggering that the app could pass MVP without this functionality.

hello, please add this to the sprint backlog for desktop rather than to the product backlog for desktop, this feature will be a big impact that will make everyone switch to using Teams

Find myself pulling out my phone to use threaded replies when conversing in desktop app. Unfortunate this feature hasn't pushed yet given originally mentioned ~8 months ago.
