CMD/CTRL+K should use fuzzy find methodology
When you are using cmd+k to find a channel or person, it would be nice if it used a fuzzy find searching mechanism.
Example:
trying to find person a.lastName
searching: "alast" doesn't find anything currently since it requires you search "a.last"4 votes -
Too many times opening proxy auth dialog
In company proxy environment, authentication dialog for proxy open as many as Mattermost server registered in App each time I open Mattermost App.
We want to reduce the number of times to open the dialog. (e.g. by setting auth for proxy from environement variables, or by saving auth info to config.json)15 votes -

Mattermost in the Microsoft Store

Create Tear Away Chat Windows
The desktop app is WAY too clunky to permit multiple simultaneous conversations.
Mattermost needs "tear away" chat windows like Google Hangouts so that you can have side by side chats going.

Provide for multiple fonts
Recently the ability to choose fonts was removed. See https://forum.mattermost.org/t/removing-font-setting/3367. Now there is only one font, and it renders poorly for me (insufficient weight/contrast) on smaller high DPI displays. This makes the GUI very hard to use. Please provide a way to select among a set of fonts, or ideally specify my own.
Frankly the justification for removing the feature was weak. Let the user decide if the load time or other trade offs are worth the better rendering.

Inline webm viewer
Show webm (and maybe mp4 as well if supported compression like x264) inline instead of having to click on the download button to view it. The video can already be played inside the mattermost app, but not inline. Right now our users use unnecessary large gifs to share animations because they work inline in the chat window.

add the ability to preview messages, or a larger editor in the RHB
It would be really great to be able to have a preview of a message before it's sent. Putting a full-size, WYSIWYG-able editor available in the right-hand bar would make it easier to compose longer messages, especially if you need to reference other posts inside of Mattermost.

Add a font which is readable without Anti Aliasing
With release v4.0 release (July 16, 2017) the ability to choose fonts was removed. The one and only font (Open Sans) is quite unreadable if Anti Aliasing is switched off. Please think about people with handicaps which cannot use Anti Aliasing because of their eyes.
Please add at least one font (as Arial or Ubuntu from pre 4.0) or provide a simple description of how someone can do this for a local installation.

Host a repository for the mattermost-desktop Debian package
It is nice to have a .deb package for mattermost-desktop, but it would be even easier to have a repository we can add to sources.list so the app can be easily updated.

Open attached image in browser
When trying to view attached images at their full resolution, having to save the image, find where you saved it, and then open it there is quite clunky.
It would be better to open the attached image in a browser, users can right click save it from there, and it can easily be maximized there

Touchbar integration
How about adding touchbar integration for the latest Macbook Pros? This is one thing that HipChat had that was quite useful - could be used for emoji search, setting away/dnd status, etc.
Thoughts?

Add a Windows universal app so that Windows 10 Mobile rollouts can use Mattermost
Let's go Windows Universal with this, and bring Mattermost to a whole new market of Windows 10 Mobile users who're waiting for first party apps for apps just like this. Then Mattermost truly becomes a Slack competitor.

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)

Restrict normal users to invite external users to a private folder
To have better security control and use MM as a viable alternative in an intranet environment, it will be great to have the option at admin level to disallow nornal users to invite external users without admin approval

Desktop Notification should allow to answer right away (Desktop App, macOS)
On macOS, Desktop Notifications can offer a "Reply" Button in order to allow a user to answer to a message right from the received notification, which is very handy. I wish to have this feature in the Mattermost Desktop app as some of my users have used Hipchat before and they complain this feature is not available in Mattermost.

CTRL+F on Windows Desktop app puts cursor in Mattermost search box filtered to channel
In the browser CTRL+F brings up text search for the page, so propose in the Windows Desktop app CTRL+F brings up Mattermost search pre-filtered to the channel to have a similar effect.
Other than the ability to search a page, the browser and desktop app have almost the same functionality.
Adding this would make the experiences more equivalent, rather than having desktop just slightly degraded.
