  2. Chronological message stream over all channels

    Sometimes I read a message in one channel, get desturbed and get more messages in other channels. Later I want to go back to the first message, but cannot remember/find the channel anymore. In this case it would be handy to have a view of all messages from all channels in chronological order.

  3. Channel Creator Info for Desktop & Web App

    While the Mattermost Mobile app has the feature of tapping on the channel header to see more information that includes who created the channel and the date:

    "Created by XXX on XXX XX, XXXX"

    Users have to scroll all the way to the beginning of the channel for desktop and web app. This will be challenging especially for channels that have a lot of content.

    It will be great if we can have similar feature for desktop and web app as well where users can click on the channel header > view info and show the same information.

  4. mention a channel with #

    On different chat software you can mention a channel. For example: #test. If you click on the #test, you will go to that channel. I miss this feature in the app right now so I think this will be very useful.

  5. Allow users to define their preferred language, and display it on their profile resume

    When opening a conversation with a colleague you dont know in a worldwide company, it isnt possible to know what is their prefered language. As a result, all conversations start with so you prefer that language or that language ?

    If preferred language gets added in users' profiles, and gets displayed when openint an empty private conversation, talking to colleagues you dont know will become less awkward

  6. Control who's able to DM other members and who's not

    Control the group members DM option with other members, maybe a new role that can only send messages in channels ?
    This would be a great feature to increase security given some companies sensitive infos that shouldn't circulate around or just to stop any and all unneeded and unverified rumors from spreading privately

  7. Too many "image.png" files. Please make them identifiable.

    Mattermost automatically stores all captured images as "image.png."
    So, there are too many "image.png" files on all channels.

    If filename contains its datetime and the publisher's shortened ID like [Pete_230814-0848.png],
    the user will be able to search the image file more easily.

    To be specific, it's a bit cumbersome to find a specific image file now.

    Most people are seeking an image file directly from the recent file list through the view info icon(ⓘ) and voila, there're dozens of image.png files.

    Although I've learned using following command works for that,
    [:from:Somebody in:Somewhere image.png]
    there's no guarantee of knowing the uploader's…

  8. Discard "New Messages" annotation by pressing Esc

    The "New Messages" annotation stays on even when the chat continues/the message is answered. I would prefer if it disappears when I answer, or if that is on purpose to at least have the possibility to discard the annotation by pressing the Esc button.

  10. add the ability to preview messages, or a larger editor in the RHB

    It would be really great to be able to have a preview of a message before it's sent. Putting a full-size, WYSIWYG-able editor available in the right-hand bar would make it easier to compose longer messages, especially if you need to reference other posts inside of Mattermost.

  11. maintain right hand sidebar (RHS) open state, when switching between teams (4.1.2)

    Every time I switch between teams, the sidebar closes.

    I'm looking to have the sidebar open 100% of the time, because it's functionally useful and it's more cognitive load when screen looks different after every team switch (often).

  12. Enable different spellchecking languages for each server

    I switch between a German and English server a lot and one of them always has all of my messages underlined red, so being able to set the language on a per server basis would be great!

  13. Improve the UX of the very first screen

    The first impressions of an app are critical. This is the screenshot that I have when I have first installed the Matermost desktop client on Ubuntu. I think it will be the same for all platforms:

    https://imgur.com/a/HY7FxOv

    Almost everything on this screen is unfriendly to a new user especially a non-technical user.

    1. The title

    It just says: 'Add Server'. Nothing like 'Hi!' or 'Welcome to Mattermost!' or anything that displays some kind of enthusiasm for welcoming the user. This is where Slack shines - friendly, quirky (perhaps later annoying) messages.

    2. Server Display Name

    Even as a fairly technical…

  15. Parse channel search string to allow more powerful queries

    I use the channel switcher with Ctrl+K a lot. Recently I joined two groups that have some overlapping members:

    Group X has members aa, bb, me. Group Y has members aa, cc, me.

    Now, it is quite tedious to search for them efficiently. If I search for "bb" and "cc" I will hit direct messaging with either of the two. And if I search for "aa" it is even worse: I get the two groups, plus direct messaging.

    I suggest to allow for a search expressions as follows: "a b", "a c". I expect this to find group channels where…

  19. Distribute Mattermost Desktop via the Mac App Store

    Hi,
    Since the Mattermost Desktop client does not include an auto-updater and the iOS version is already distributed on the App Store, why don't you distribute the mac client on the Mac App Store.

    This would solve the updating problem and also make the app easier to discover. The download page is pretty hidden on the mattermost website, I always end up on the server download page when I only want to check for update.

  20. Automatically restart Mattermost after upgrade if it was already running (MSI)

    When updating existing installations of Mattermost with the MSI, the desktop app should automatically restart if it was running when the installation started. At the very least, the installer option that starts Mattermost after installation should be exposed as a public property, so it can be set as a switch when installing with msiexec.

    Currently, the MSI kills the process but it doesn't restart when running with the /qn switch.
