Reply In Other Channel
Add a new right-click option to messages which allows the user to move the conversation to a new channel when the topic changes. This would move the user to the desired channel with a draft message including a permalink to the message being replied to, and a ping to the message's author, to help them see the conversation has moved.

This becomes an even nicer suggestion if message permalinks eventually include embeds which show the message in question.
Additionally, you could optionally include a message like "Continuing in #new-channel" on the channel moved away from when send is hit on this new message, which would allow others to follow along with the conversation.

I need this badly. I have a press release channel and I don't want it cluttered with conversation about the statement, but I do want people to be able to reference it

Wow, this is such a useful feature that I am surprised this is not requested more.

The reply feature is great, but now users can't move their conversations between text channels.

I completely agree

Creating this reply method - in that way that we can reply in other channels the same way we reply to the actual channel - will help us keep channels more organized for new users that join our servers.

Nice feature proposal.

Bump, trying to have an announcements channel get cluttered with people replying to the announcement really ain't it.

This would be absolutely brilliant - once a server scales up with a large number of users and channels, it would be EXTREMELY useful to be able to start moving conversations to appropriate channels once they become bigger than quick asides.

I also need this. I want one channel to only have certain content, but I want to discuss this content in another channel.

I found this thread by googling "discord reply to a message in another channel". Need this badly for the exact same use-case as stated by the others. Allowing people to have conversations about announcements made in a read-only channel

BUMP!
Please make this happen! I need this to reply to a suggestion, in a read-only, in the discussion channel D:

Indeed! We're all in dire need of this feature... I'm community moderator for a couple servers, one of which has a rather large-ish audience, so we definitely want to keep it clean and simple :)

+1 This will be must have option with reply feature

+1 hopefully the team implement this feature soon

I searched for this as well, could have used it several times in ma short Discort History.

I'd really like to see this feature implemented, it would be very useful on servers with many channels.

The idea isn't a bad one.
I posted my opinion and suggestion on this topic in this suggestion thread: https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360051510874/comments/4404342048535 Let me know what you think about it...0 -
This is an excellent suggestion, and I don't know why we don't have it already! Like replying to a general channel message with artwork in a media channel, or when a discussion takes a certain turn take it to a mature channel while keeping it easy to follow.
1 -
Yes please. I also just searched 'replying in different channel' and found this hahaha

Also need this feature. Trying to announce winners and referencing their posts from another channel makes the announcement post look ugly with tons of long text hyper-links.
1 -
Throw my support on the pile. This is an excellent feature suggestion.
1 -
Agreed, please make this a thing
1 -
This, or automatically create an embed when a message permalink is posted would be nice

This would be a tremendously useful feature for seamlessly moving conversations between channels, like when conversations get too heavy and you want to move them to a more appropriate channel without having to announce the move or anything.

i can only highlight this once again: it makes so much sense when you have channels for different topics!

Adding my voice to the "this would be useful" chorus.

+1 me to, i'm for.

+1 bump this would be a great feature when people chat in the wrong channel.
Need to be able to Quote Reply + continue conversation in another channel.
Just add a way to copy the quoted text and problem solved. You could this very simply on BB forums for the past 20+ years, you just copy the [quote] [/quote] parts of the message and can reply anywhere.
