#core-firehose does not include PR comments

[peterwilsoncc]

Expected Behavior

In Slack, the #core-firehose channel, the GitHub bot is configured to show PR reviews and comments in the main channel:

/github subscribe wordpress/wordpress-develop reviews:"channel"
/github subscribe wordpress/wordpress-develop comments:"channel"

I'd like the eqivalent to be set up in the matrix version of the channel

Actual Behavior

The matrix channel does not include reviews or comments in the main channel.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Go to https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C0397U3CV/p1702214276325899
2. Immediately below this is an entry of a PR being closed, then a comment on the PR linking to the source commit.
3. Go to https://matrix.to/#/!yxdwXnilqyWyySDhuO:community.wordpress.org/$c16Fr-oBsg1KMfKVlduoo4Sj77RerSpGUlg4-7P7QTg?via=community.wordpress.org
4. Neither the PR closure or comment appear below it.

The comments arrive in Matrix, but just in the thread. The issue here is that Matrix (currently?) doesn't have the "Also send to room" function that makes these comments show up as the most recent message in the room. A possible approach would be to just send the message to the room twice of which only one is to the thread.

A possible approach would be to just send the message to the room twice of which only one is to the thread.

I think this would be a good solution until the feature is introduced (or if it is introduced).

To avoid duplicate messages in search, it might be best to drop the posts in threads as they're unlikely to be tracked given the amount of traffic in the firehose & threads being difficult to track once they go off screen.
