Description

UPDATE: In September of 2023 Slack updated their UI, so I updated this extension so it works with their new UI.

If you see any issues, please file them in the github repository below and I will look into them. Thanks!

Now you can hide your slack messages when using the web app. This lets you get in the flow and do more deep work.

After you open the slack web app, click the "Hide messages" button to hide your messages. You'll still be able to search slack and use it as a reference, just without all the messages appearing in the left sidebar.

When you're ready to view your messages, just click "Show messages".

This extension only works for the web app. It doesn't work for the desktop app.
