Away Status Configuration
Just to expand on the original idea located here:
https://mattermost.uservoice.com/forums/306457-general/suggestions/17128663-configurable-away-time
Auto-away should at least be configurable in terms of minutes, or an option should exist to disable it completely. These settings should exist per user, but I'm not sure how much value it would add if the administrator determines the configuration for the team.

open the emoji picker with typing ":", followed by pressing Tab
I'd really like to see the emoji picker that can be activated as described in the title, instead of the ":" followed by minimum of 2 characters as it is at the moment.
I'm aware of the full picker ticket https://mattermost.atlassian.net/browse/PLT-2354, but as i understand it doesn't include this feature.1 vote -
resize image upload
Fist important use of mattermost is sharing picture.
We need to upload a smarphone picture with a good resize for not explode server hard drive. (picture management is not easy with history)For example when we upload a picture, a menu ask:
Choose size upload:
- original size (~4mB)
- full hd (800 kB)
- 1024px (200 kB)
(we can use mozjpeg lib)Resize coulb be on the sever or on the app, but it's necessary.
This feature is not on slack and i don't understand WHY.

Add the option to increase font size
Currently the web interface has no option to increase the font size. This is plainly silly. Please fix this ASAP.

Switch channels between different teams
It is not possible to use ctrl+k to switch to a channel or private group in another team.
Why is this restricted? I don't think it is a good idea to force the user to use their mouse. This is not very productive.15 votes -
Change email notification behavior
Right now, if I only use the browser and switch to different tabs my status changes from green to yellow. If someone sends me a direct message, I receive an email. That's annoying. I don't want to disable email notification as a whole. It makes much more sense to only send emails about messages I received while I was offline.

Make switch channel more intuitive
If I open the switch channel dialog and begin to type the beginning of a name for which several entries exist, then this list is ordered alphabetically and does not take into account open chats with people.
This feature is only useful if you want to speed up navigation. I expect the dialog to show open chats before others so you dont have to navigate in the list to select the correct entry.

Restore should be in Team edition or Channel delete in Team edition should be permanent
If i delete a channel i cannot create a new one with same name. nor can i restore the previous channel without enterprise edition.
I suggest to move feature of restoring to Team edition. Alternatively make channel deletions permanent so another channel with same name can be created.

Release RPM packages for those on rpm-based systems
I recently switched to fedora and now i can't install the mattermost desktop app using rpm - because there's no rpm package.
Thus I suggest you also release a rpm package (thanks to electron-builder this should be a pretty easy task)

Option to disable user "Access History"
Mattermost seems to log all user IP as a default.
Maybe it would be a nice option to opt-out per user or system wide the logging of all IP addresses.4 votes -

Use AppData/Local for cached data on Windows
For Windows all local Mattermost data is stored inside of %APPDATA% (AppData/Roaming).
This directory syncs between computers on every login / logout in certain corporate environments.Cache data should be placed inside AppData/Local.

Use the "fallback" field from Slack's webhook attachment format as text for notification, when the provided text is empty.
The slack attachment format defines a fallback field, that is required for attachments to be valid, and is used when the full-formatted message is not usable in a particular context (e.g. text-mode clients, notifications).
For example, Slack uses that fallback field for the text of notifications. I believe that Mattermost should do the same.
That would require changes on the webhook-related code, on the format of the post object that is forwarded in Javascript, and on the code that generates the text shown in notifications. I could work on a PR if you are favorable to the idea.

Hotlink preview for uploaded image instead of thumbnail
When uploading images it will be nice to have a preview features (like when entering an image through a link) instead of the current generated thumbnail which is not very representative of the image. This is somehow how Slack is showing uploaded image.

Use correct typographical symbols for all user-facing strings such as curly quotes for apostrophes (‘’) and quotes (“”)
Use correct typographical symbols for all user-facing strings such as curly quotes for apostrophes (‘’) and quotes (“”).
You should also avoid other typographical mistakes like n-dashes (–) and ellipsis (…) characters.
See this thread for more details: https://github.com/mattermost/platform/issues/4921#issue-198207996

Slash commands progress indicator
Mattermost should have a way of showing that a slash command was executed, and awaiting response. At the moment you have no way of knowing if your command was sent out or not until a potential response arrives. For slow services this is raither tedious as you begin doubting if the message was sent or not, and might end up sending it multiple times.

Prevent non-admin users to rename channels
I'm aware of your business model and I'm fine with an advanced permissions system in the paid edition. I'm also aware that you carefully thought through the channel management for basic users (see https://github.com/mattermost/platform/issues/1764) and think it's a good way of approaching things.
But please, consider removing the ability for every one to rename channels. This is not useful, doesn't really make sense and more importantly leaves the ability for anyone to ruin a setup (prank or sabotage). It also gives a feeling of totally uncontrolled environment for these users.
This small feature makes me question the entire usage…
