Display all unsent draft messages in one place
Every once in a while, I stumble upon an old draft I started typing, never finished or sent, in various locations (public / private channels, direct messages, threads...). It's nice that the icon next to the location is sometimes showing clearly that I have a draft there, but with many channels/DMs/threads I still risk losing a draft.

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

Allow moving posts to, or between, threads
Currently, there is no way to move posts between threads. If you accidentally make a post not within a thread, or in the wrong thread, the only way to correct this is to delete the post and re-create it.
Even via the API, it only allows updating is pinned, message, has reactions, and props. No root id.
It would be nice to allow updating the "root_id" via the API. This allows moving posts to threads or between threads.

Would love to see .mov files viewable directly in Mattermost
I take videos with my iPhone and post them to MM, but no one can see them unless they download and convert them to an MP4. Would love to be able to them without that extra step.

Hello friends
I want to have settings for a private channel where I can only allow channel users to reply to posts.2 votes -
Add a popup notification when someone calls you (using the new calls beta)
Currently, in the new calls (beta) in v7.0, when someone calls you, you get the same notification as you would get with a normal chat message. This does not really grab the attention of the receiver, who might think it's just a chat message notification or just miss it entirely due to the brevity of the notification, leaving the caller waiting indefinitely in an empty call.
Could the mattermost devs add an option to enable e.g. a popup window or a continuously ringing sound when someone calls you? This would greatly improve the usability of the call functionality. Currently, I…

Icons for channels
It would be nice to be able to assign an icon (or emoji) to a channel so that it replaces the existing public/private icons in the sidebar. Having a small image that describes the channel allows for people to more easily find a channel that they are looking for in a large list of channels (just like it does for DMs and teams). The space taken up by the existing public/private icons would be better served by a custom image/emoji. If desired, the public/private icons could be retained by making them small overlay icons in the corner much like user…

Cache emojis on server from S3
The Mattermost server downloads every emoji as the user requests it from S3. To minimize S3 traffic the emojis should be cached server side so every request does not need to hit S3.

Add shortcut to change server
It is really great to be able to use the same client for multiple servers (which is not possible on the mobile app)
It would be really awesome to be able to switch servers with a keyboard shortcut ! It is the last use of the mouse I still have in mattermost.

Back button that takes you to your previously posted messags (perhaps highlighting them)
We have a lot of channels and I posted a message and moved to another channel. I then noticed that the message I posted (via the thread chat) was not in the channel I thought. Would be good if there was a back button which would take me to my previous message, switching channels as necessary and perhaps highlighting the text. This could keep taking you back.

Allow to disable thread autofollow when whole channel was mentioned.
Add parameter that allows Mattermost admin, to disable thread autofollow while having collapsed reply thread turned on while mass mentions are used (@channel, @all, @here).
I want my users to get notification, but not to follow this thread automatically, afaik, this is not possible at this moment, because thread autofollow must be set to true in config.json, for collapsed reply thread to work.46 votes -
Display local time of person you're messaging above text box
Like slack has, would be better to display the local time of the person you're messaging, as we have people on our server from over 4 different time zones

Support readonly filesystem without errors
It is a best practice to run kubernetes workloads as readOnlyRootFilesystem. See https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/security-context/.
When running with such a security context, Mattermost will throw an error : Failed to update assets subpath from config.
This is the case even if the deployment is not served as a subpath.
My proposal is to add support for a readonly filesystem, by either :
- Detecting when the SITE_URL is not affecting the subpath, thereby not raising an error and not trying to update the subpath
OR
- Writing the updated files to a different directory that can be mounted as a read-writable…1 vote -
make channel read-only for specific users (mute)
I'd like to have the ability to restrict users from writing in a channel without having to remove them altogether. Like muting them/making the channel read-only for them specifically.
