Include Racially Diverse Emojis
Currently, all of the default emojis (people, hands, etc) on the desktop app have a light yellow skin tone. Since you are already using apple emojis, it would be awesome to integrate the ability to change the skin and hair tone of these emojis.

Integrate with Discourse
It would be fantastic if Mattermost could share user registrations from Discourse, so that our users only have to register/login once to use essentially the same site.
39 votesThere is a community integration available for connecting Mattermost with Discourse:

Improve web accessibility
It would be great if the WCAG 2.0 guidelines could be implemented to help people with disabilities to use Mattermost.
This is an area that is often overlook, specially by the recent wave of chat platforms, so it's an opportunity for Mattermost to differentiate itself from the crowd.
39 votesThis is planned. Would anyone be interested helping with this effort as we create tickets for them?
It would be great to hear people’s feedback on what are the biggest gaps with accessibility currently.

Retrieve Private Channels in Team through API as Team Admin
If you've found the following limitation through the API where Private Channels in a given Team cannot be listed by a Team Admin due to access restrictions in the API
"Get Public Channels For Team" API endpoint currently requires permission listteamchannels in order to list Public Channels within a team.

For now it only searches the channels that you have joined.
Maybe the info you are searching exists outside of the channels you have already joined.

add or remove people from a group message
Sometimes, you start a Group Message and realize later that you need to add a new person to the conversation, or remove someone from the conversation.
Currently, there is no way to add/remove someone from a conversation. A new Group conversation has to be started, but all of the previous discussion details are lost, or have to be copied and pasted, one at a time, into a new Group conversation.
Please add the ability to add/remove people to/from an existing Group Message.

Daily / weekly email digests
I know it sounds like the “email batching” feature added in Mattermost 3.4 https://mattermost.uservoice.com/forums/306457-general/suggestions/12903204-allow-email-batching-limiting
… but for non-professionnal environnement, a daily, weekly, or even 15 days or monthly “digests” of notifications and/or channels activities would be very useful. Even with one hour batches, members deactivates their notifications when they can't work everyday for the team.
“Slow projects” don't need immediate responses, and a moderate usage of notifications would be appreciated.
In some circonstances, a good (slow) timing of reminder could even drive members' involvement (e.g. for those who takes a few hours per week for a project).
This could be…

Allow for bots to directly upload images
Bots are only able to post text messages to rooms, however, it would be convenient if bots were able to attach photos as a message to the room.
We would prefer if our bot didn't have to upload images to an accessible URL and then post that url to the room (and then only get a preview of an image), as this adds a few extra steps to viewing the image and requires our bot to be aware of when it is done uploading the image to the host and then finally post the link to the room.

Ability to Reply to Message with Webhook
It would be awesome for us, when something like this could be achieved:
I use a slash command in a thread (right side), the triggered post will include the parent message id.
Add the parent message id to incoming webhooks. So I can reply to a thread with webhooks.

Quote Reply In Threads
In a thread, because we cant create subthreads, the comment menu should have a new item called "quote reply".
"Quote Reply" should allow the user to add a new comment with reference from the comment he is replying.
A : I like cars.
A : Wanna go for pizza? <-- "Quote Reply"
B : I like Ferrari.
B : "Wanna go for pizza?"
Yes. Pizza is a great idea.37 votes -
Ability to change the order of channel groupings
There are several options now provided for changing the grouping and ordering of channels, but one is conspicuously missing IMO: the ability to change the ordering of the groupings.
In my use of MM, I have a small handful of favorite channels, and then a bunch of other channels, and then a small handful of direct messages. Most of my communication is in the favorite channels and the direct messages, but the former is at the very top and the latter is at the very bottom. It is annoying to have to scroll through the wasteland of all of my…

Feature to enable Auto theme switch based on MacOS theme
Introduce an "Auto mirror OS theme" toggle button in Mattermost Desktop for MacOS (and possibly Windows) client so it can mirror the MacOS theme setting (Settings > General > Appearance) Light and Dark automatically.
Many users would want to use dark themes for their apps to work at night, but Mattermost default theme is pretty bright in the dark.
Right now it should be a manual theme change to switch to the Mattermost dark theme. This would be a great step towards better user experience.

Visibility of the Pinned Post
Hello to all
The post pin option is very good, but it is better to be able to see the post I am pinning at the top of the channel.
Not that you have to click on the icon to see it
Because some channel users may not notice the icon and see the postAnd I think this can be done for all versions of different platforms

Image preview should honor exif orientation
Mattermost fetches images from a URL to that image, however it ignores the exif data. This results in the preview often being in the wrong orientation.
