upgrade to a version that supports creating custom user groups.
Custom user groups allow users to create groups within channels to enable more specific notifications within channels or communities. Mattermost documentation here: https://docs.mattermost.com/welcome/manage-custom-groups.html

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…3 votes -

White - Onlne
Charcoal - Offline

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 privately3 votes -
boards
An ability to preview documents within Boards similar to how documents can be previewed in channels (files). As a work around I currently export my PDF as images to allow myself and others to quickly view a document within a card without having to download an attachment and then view.

data retention/purge in open source edition
I occasionally check in, to see, if mattermost is usable, now.
Instead, you made it worse.
You deleted the original thread from years ago:
https://mattermost.uservoice.com/forums/306457-general/suggestions/36989788-make-data-retention-and-prune-reset-clear-availablThis is still wide open:
https://mattermost.uservoice.com/forums/306457/suggestions/15357861It would be nice to propose switching to mattermost, but as it stands, it is still unusable.
There's clearly a need:
https://mattermost.uservoice.com/forums/306457-general/suggestions/46891111-mmctl-command-to-clean-up-orphaned-filesEven though few people are aware this 'uservoice'.exists, many people have asked repeatedly over years.
I voted for the first time (couldn't bother signing up so far). But reading this post, this is at least from 2016. Seems you do not care for new users.

Message button in profile if opened in direct message channel
I am in a private conversation with user 'A' and mention a user 'B'.
We can open the profile of User 'B' but there is no message button to open a direct chat.
In a channel this feature already exists, so it should be also possible to do this in a private conversation2 votes -
mmctl command to clean-up orphaned files
As it is now, we will probably have to write a custom lambda funtion that scans the entire S3 bucket, tries to match the files with the associated channels, and removes them if not found. Not even sure if this is possible, there are alot of id's in the pathname of the files, so my guess is one of them is the channel id, however, this we still need to confirm.

DoNotDisturb
Allow users to setup "on duty" time frames so they aren't constantly buzzed by the app when they are off duty. Unless a user is specifically cited.

Support for syntax highlighting in Mattermost Boards
Mattermost Boards should support, in Cards text content, code blocks with language specification. For example:
// Your First Program class HelloWorld { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Hello, World!"); } }Refer also to the following issue: https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost/issues/23627

Draw.io Integration
Similar to Boards, it would be advantageous to have the ability to draw charts collaboratively with the rest of the team within the MM app. Draw.io is an open source software with permissive licensing so it wouldn't be too much work to implement this feature relatively quickly.

Highlight part of conversation
It'd be lovely if there was a way to highlight text in an ongoing thread/discussion. It's quite common that when posting long texts, the responding person/people miss part of what has been entered.
E.g. I'll enter three paragraphs of text, the person/people responding completely miss out on what's entered in the second paragraph. Rather than having to enter "As I was saying, above, in my second paragraph...", it'd be very useful to be able to highlight a block of text.
Not sure if I should only be able to highlight parts of my own text, or any text.
