General chat” channels

Zulip's topics help you keep conversations organized, but you may not need topics in some channels (e.g., a social channel, or one with a narrow purpose).

If you have permission to administer a channel, you can configure it to only have the special “general chat” topic. The name of this topic is shown in italics, and is translated into your language.

Users won't need to enter a topic when sending a message to a “general chat” channel.
