Add posibility to share a file to many users or groups
In this moment, if I want to share the same file to many users or groups, I need to repeat share operation for every user or group. It would be great if you can add a intermediary screen for destination selection (like whatsapp), with multiple option for selection

Enable to detect since when a user is offline (manual & disconected)
Currently, using the UX, we cannot determine the last time a user when offline. this feature is useful and could be compared with flowdock.com, as you can see in the image https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/907914/71488129-12347800-2873-11ea-8b03-867c8fc2b357.png
Steps to reproduce:
mattermost Server 5.16+
Open a conversation 1-1 with any user, and if it is offline, we cannot determine since when that user is offlineExpected behaviour:
Open a conversation 1-1 with any user and if is offline. Display as part of user status since when the user is offline.

Enable Notifications when Mattermost is not Visible to the User
If a chat is selected when the desktop app is not visible or minimized, the user will not receive notifications for any new messages sent within the chat.
For example, If I am talking to Bob, then I shrink the desktop app with his name still selected in the left hand pane, or I open a new window and cannot see the Mattermost app, it wont notify me of a new message from Bob unless I make sure to click on a different chat window with someone else prior to moving my attention away from Mattermost.
I understand we wouldnt…

Make 'reply to last message in a channel' a default option
Enable the ability for a user org/admin to make 'reply to the last message in a channel' the default option when starting a new message, so threads are the default for a conversation. This could perhaps also be optionally limited to replies that explicitly start with or contain an 'at-mention' of the handle of the creator of the original post.

Add option to turn off default custom emojis
The title says it all: i.e. get rid of "the Doom guy" and other icons there. This option can go on the Emojis page in the System Console. An alternative implementation would be to list them in the custom emoji list and allow them to be individually deleted there.

Newcommers to private channels should not have access to the past logs
When a new user is invited to a private channel, s.he can access all the past logs as if s.he was a member of the channel from Day 1. I see this as a sort of privacy pitfall, as you have to control your language thinking of who may be invited in the future. That's not exactly what I'd call a private discussion channel.
My use case is that we are using mattermost to discuss our research project. I can perfectly imagine how we discuss together about a concurring project and then later introduce a postdoc coming from that group.…

Integration with Miro collaborative whiteboarding
Miro (https://miro.com/) is a collaborative whiteboarding system popular with (interaction) designers but also used in research and strategy planning.
Microsoft Teams allows the following events from Miro to be shown:
- invitees sign up
- board is shared with you
- there's a new comment or a reply to your comment on a board
- someone @mentions you in a comment or reply.
Source: https://help.miro.com/hc/en-us/articles/360017572514-Microsoft-Teams
It would be nice to have a similar integration in Mattermost.

Run mattermost-mobile in webapp contexts and therefore allow other platforms than ios and android
I recently started using a Volla Phone with the operation system Ubuntu Touch and would like to use mattermost-mobile. As the app has been developed using react-native, I think the easiest way to support more platforms would be to also support react-native-web. This would allow to start mattermost-mobile in a browser and/or in web app contexts of other platforms than ios and android.

Allow users to be set to disallow direct messages
At the moment, you can configure users to be allowed to send direct messages either to other members of the team or to anyone on the server.
I'd like to make it so that normal users cannot start direct messages at all.
My particular usecase may be a little out of the sweet spot - I have created a mattermost for my children (quite young) who I want to be able to chat with while they are doing their home learning, but don't want them using public chat systems. I am happy for them to interact with each other in…

Read-only channels but with threads allowed
Hello,
It would be nice to have an ability to restrict messages in the channel but allow messages in the threads for the channel.
So that channel looks like a forum. Only answers to the posts are allowed.

Send E-Mail using Slash Command
We are using a e-mail-based ticket system (e.g., ticketsupport@company-name.org). As most of our communication switched to Mattermost, the only remainder is writing mails to create a ticket.
Therefore, it would be really convenient to send a e-mail using something like:
/[mail-address] ["Subject"] ["Body"]
The from address is the address used by Mattermost.6 votes -

Limit custom emoji visibility to some channels
By default custom emojis are available to every user in the server in every channel.
I would like to be able to restrain the visibility of a custom emoji I upload.
When uploading a custom emoji, I would like to pick in which channel it can be selected.I am interested in implementing this feature myself.

Make team tabs optional
The new wide tab bar steals useful screen real estate, introduces visual redundancy to our single-server setup (team name mentioned twice within a really small area of UI), and makes the app look even less at home on macOS. The old top of the window bar at least looked native. Please consider making the tab bar optional at least in single-server environments.

Android back button navigate through Mattermost app window history
I suggest that the back button should work more similar to other chat applications on the mobile platform. At the moment pressing the back button (or gesture) prompts for confirmation to close the application.
It feels more natural to go back to the previous channel, direct message, etc.For example:
I receive a direct message notification and I click on it. I am taken to the direct message. I then activate the drawer and move to another channel. To get back to the prevoius direct message or channel it would be handy to just press the back key.
Similarly I…

Server wide channel groupings (like discord)
https://discord.com has the ability to create channel grouping for the server, so all users have the same groupings.
Presently mattermost has this for each user, and while very useful (and should remain!), having the ability to craft default groups for all users would greatly improve the ability to sort channels for larger organizations and enterprise users.
