Entering chat view on a list, showing last comment and a indicator of number of unread messages. Now, when opening chat view, it opens on first message and you need to scroll down to check are there any new messages. This could be also upgraded by indicator of #comments which were not read on the top of chat view where is the name of the chat. You have similar option for time in status next to statuses.

This feature is normal on all the messaging platforms and would help my team a lot to switch completly to clickup without event considering using slack or whatsapp.
