Adding mattermost to the share menu on Mac OSX
When quickly sharing a files, it would be useful to have Mattermost in the Share Menu by default.

Android back button navigate through Mattermost app window history
I suggest that the back button should work more similar to other chat applications on the mobile platform. At the moment pressing the back button (or gesture) prompts for confirmation to close the application.
It feels more natural to go back to the previous channel, direct message, etc.For example:
I receive a direct message notification and I click on it. I am taken to the direct message. I then activate the drawer and move to another channel. To get back to the prevoius direct message or channel it would be handy to just press the back key.
Similarly I…

Server wide channel groupings (like discord)
https://discord.com has the ability to create channel grouping for the server, so all users have the same groupings.
Presently mattermost has this for each user, and while very useful (and should remain!), having the ability to craft default groups for all users would greatly improve the ability to sort channels for larger organizations and enterprise users.

Add spotlight search integration
It would be useful to integrate with Spotlight Search on OS-X so that I can search in one place among local files, emails, MM messages, etc.

Support embedding a channel in a web page
Collaborative apps would greatly benefit from reusing a robust and mature chat system, instead of reimplementing a shitty one (think Google Meet's side chat). It would be great if Mattermost could allow an existing channel (or a newly-created one) to be embedded inside an iframe that communicates with the host window e.g. via postMessage or similar mechanism.

Button to minimize inline images (ex: GIFs plugin)
Users can minimize an image preview of an URL that is directly pasted in the message, with the cross button at the top left corner. However, there is no such button if the same image is inlined with the folowwing syntax .
It'd be useful to have a way of minimizing inline images, like Slack does and like Mattermost does for raw URL previews.
This is a follow-up on multiple requests from the users of moussetc/mattermost-plugin-giphy on GitHub (Issue 12).

Mattermost Bulk Export Single / Selected Team
While the current Bulk Export Tool - https://docs.mattermost.com/administration/bulk-export.html#running-the-bulk-export-command - allows backend admins to export all the teams based on the following command:
sudo ./mattermost export bulk /home/user/bulk_data.json --all-teams
It will be great to have the ability to export single / selected team to remove any "inactive" teams when moving / migrating systems around.
The current workaround of removing unwanted teams from the export file is not ideal for instances that have a large number of teams.

Managing team members via drag n drop
Hello everybody,
in the last time I set some teams in our Mattermost and some teams have many members. Currently you have to choise the member as direct chat and then you can drop him in the team you want.
Is it possible that we can get the same mask for direct chat for the manageing of the teams, too? That would reduce the time for managing of the teams.1 vote -
Option to disable spell checking
Currently, spell checking is always enabled and cannot be disabled.
To some users, the red underlining is visually distracting. Also, the spell checker is currently unable to detect on-the-fly, in-sentence language switching, which is sometimes used in mixed-language teams or when discussing mixed-language subjects (like programming).
Therefore, I'd like to suggest adding an option to permanently disable spell checking - either in the configuration, or, in the input bar's context menu, where the spell check language is usually selected.
In the input bar it could look like this:

Add filter to show only channels with unread messages (or recent activity)
I like Mattermost but frequently the list of collaborators gets long and I have to scroll between active chats.
I think a filter feature would be useful to show only certain chats, e.g.
- channels with unread messages
- filter by textCombined with "pinned channels" this would help to focus on the active stuff even without giving Mattermost an entire (large) screen.

Share Contact Card
It would be cool to share contacts from the phone contact app and display them as such.
Currently it is not possible to share directly from the iPhone Contacts and .vcf files can not be downloaded or opened in iOS (did not try on Android)
Also for reference there was already a forum post about it with sadly no reply: https://forum.mattermost.org/t/share-phone-contact/5952

Sort Posts by Most Recent First.
Would it be possible to sort posts by most recent first (top of list) so one does not have to scroll down to the bottom of a post list, or at least offer this as an option?

Allow aliases for custom emojis
The name field of custom emoji only allows a single word, whereas system emojis have multiple aliases. Would be good if name could be provided as a comma-separated list to be used as aliases, internally.

Add Mumble/Murmur voice integration.
Add Mumble/Murmur voice integration.
Murmur is the server component of Mumble, and is lightweight, with highly configurable options and good encryption and voice quality. I think it could really be a powerful voice integration to consider, as it has an easier to use interface than say, Jitsi. Voice inside mattermost would make it a Discord killer imho.

Change custom attributes to support user set attribute values
Custom attributes should optionally support having both a name and a value at the point of definition by the system admin.
They would be as currently assigned to users/teams/group as
appropriate. The value of the attribute could then be set at this time or by the user, team/group owner in a custom attribute extension to the user profile or similarly for for teams and group. Support for attributes of type simple
(no value, current behavior), required (must be set), overridable (can be changed or not from value set by system) could also be added.
