Auto-conversion of messages larger than 16383 characters into a text file attachment on a post
It could be cool if mattermost did a auto-conversion of messages larger than 16383 characters into a text file of sorts?
Sometimes, we have large logs and such, which don't need to be search-able by the mattermost search (or present in the DB eating away space) but if there was a way to auto-convert it into a text file after pasting the text normally, that would be super cool
Paste text into message box --> Hit enter --> message gets converted into a text file and sent in place of the post

Customize the BOT tag
Especially for incoming webhooks, it would be nice to override the BOT tag text that is shown on every message. This would allow (for instance) integrations to post to a channel as a user in the external system with the name of the system shown instead of BOT, e.g.:
someguy IRC: hello
or
myusername JIRA: issue comment
There would still be a visual indication that the username is associated with an integration and may not be an actual user, but the word BOT isn't always the best description of what's happening.

Synchronise drafts between (mobile and desktop) clients
I currently use Mattermost from the web client and an iPhone. It would be great if draft messages were synchronised between the different clients.
This is not something that sounds particularly useful in the abstract, but it is a feature of Telegram and I found I would often write half a message and then remember that I had a relevant link or similar on a different platform, so want to continue the message where I could copy-paste that link. Now that we have switched to using Mattermost, I am missing it.

Quick Markdown insert
Multiple ways to implement this :
- Select a word, then right-click and chose a formatting option (bold, italic, code, etc)
- Select a word and like in Office apps chose formatting options in a toolbar
- Add keyboard shortcuts to add a specific markdown
- Add most used markdowns under the input and make them clickable to insert them
- Add an icon to add markdown (like the Emoji icon)

Cannot copy and/or paste text to mattermost
I am using macOS Mojave and every time I copy some text from a different source (website, text editor) with command C and then try to paste it in a conversation with command V it doesn't work.
Copy and paste only works if I copy paste with the right click of the mouse, which is slower and more uncomfortable

Add Gitea OAuth2 Support
Support Gitea's OAuth2 provider as an authentication source.
Currently, the team edition only supports GitLab as an OAuth2 source. GitLab is pretty heavyweight and many people prefer other software for a variety of reasons.
Gitea (https://gitea.io/en-us/) is a really nice open source, community supported Git server. They recently added support for acting as an OAuth2 provider (see https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/oauth2-provider/ for documentation). It would be great if Mattermost would support Gitea as an OAuth2 provider.

Auto-archive channels
Hello All,
Would be great to have any option to configure on MM to auto-archive channels (private or public) if no activity for a time period.
This will be really useful, due, we create channels everyday for temporal purposes (incidents, discussions, etc) and no always the participants archive the channels when are not needed.
So, an automatic way to do that would be great to perform the archival for the channels which the last activity was older than 30 days for example...;)

preserve manually set DND, AWAY and OFFLINE status
Currently, whenever I refresh the browser tab, the status goes from /any/ to online. Also, If I open a permalink (we use it often to reference discussions over features) the status changes to online.
It would be nice to leave the status as it was, if it was set manually. Especially the DND status should be preserved.

🌓 Automatic dark/light mode switch using standard CSS
It's now possible to follow the OS dark mode preference in CSS. 🌝🌚
Stackoverflow is using it and it's brilliant [1].
It seems that now it is reasonably simple and supported [2] using CSS.
This would require a new option where one defines the dark and light themes one wants and then MM uses the CSS tech above to switch them under the hood.[1] https://stackoverflow.blog/2020/03/31/building-dark-mode-on-stack-overflow/

Integrate with Office 365/GDrive calander
It would be useful if we could set up mattermost to notify us from multiple calendars (personal, work etc). This way the user would not have to leave mattermost to check meetings/calls and make MM a more integrated workspace tool.

Chronological message stream over all channels
Sometimes I read a message in one channel, get desturbed and get more messages in other channels. Later I want to go back to the first message, but cannot remember/find the channel anymore. In this case it would be handy to have a view of all messages from all channels in chronological order.

Add the ability to retrieve an archived private channel with admin permissions
I would like to be able to archive private channels that are no longer in use once a project collaboration is complete but also be able to retrieve that channel if the project reopens or as a means to preserve corporate knowledge and lessons learned for similar projects in the future. Currently, even if you are an admin for a channel, once you archive it, you cannot search for the channel or unarchive it.

Sort joinable public channels by activity
When there are many public channels to join, many are defunct. New users cannot distinguish these from active channels in the More Channels modal. It would be nice to see the most active channels first, see some measure of how active each is, and perhaps see how many people are in each channel.

Integrate GoToMeeting
As we use GoToMeeting, the Mattermost plugin for Zoom does not help. We would verymuch appreciate a similar possibility to integrate GoToMeeting.
