Make emoji reactions visible in pinned post panel(right-hand side)
We'd like to pin a 'poll' post to see the results and make memebers easy to find to post it.
However we have no access to the reactions in the 'pinned post' pane in the right-hand side.

Copy/Paste Individual Messages
As it stands now, if I hold down on a message it selects one word, per Android's UI. Fine. However, when I click select all, it selects the entire chatroom, rather than that one message. It would be nice to (similar to Facebook Messenger) simply hold down on the message and have a menu pop up asking if you'd like to copy text. Similarly to another post I've made, perhaps in this pop up message, if there is a phone number or email listed in said message, you could select copy text (whole message), copy phone number, or copy email address. Thanks!

Use a different color thread bar for different threads
When there are multiple threads going on in the same channel, all lines are prefixed by a grey vertical bar. The only way to separate the threads is to read the reference message. If the vertical bars had different colors (randomly selected), it would be easy to at a glance see which messages belongs to which threads.

Thanks in advance!

Show all threads in one place
Option to show all threads in which a user participates in one place. Ask from Startup School.
Note: By default mention notifications for threads aren't turned on, maybe we should default them to on to see to what extent this helps.

calculator
In google search, when you prefix a search with "=", it automatically runs the search as a maths calculation. It would be great to have this in mattermost as well.
So if a message starts with a "=" and does not contain other text, it should be postfixed with the result of the calculation.1 vote -
Team initials
Ability to change team initials / short name.
For example if your teams start with the same prefix, the initials are going to be the same for all of them.
Furthermore you may want to set it manually, or if the name is made of multiple words, use the first letter of each word as initials.
This is also related to https://mattermost.uservoice.com/forums/306457-general/suggestions/15465123-team-icon
Idea is to be able to differentiate teams easier :)
I also don't know about mobile apps, but in the web version on desktop the initials could potentially include up to 4 characters.

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.

Move a message to another channel
Sometimes a user posts his message in the wrong channel. Deleting the message and repost is a simple solution. However, sometimes the message already contains replies. Is it possible (to make) to move a message including its replies to another channel?

Switch channels between different teams
It is not possible to use ctrl+k to switch to a channel or private group in another team.
Why is this restricted? I don't think it is a good idea to force the user to use their mouse. This is not very productive.15 votes -
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

Build Android app without Google Play Services
The Android app requires the Google Play Services because it uses GCM for push notifications. This library is not open-source so it prevents Mattermost from being included in FOSS repositories like F-Droid.
It would be nice to have an option that builds the app without GCM.174 votes -

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
- a simple increase of durations for the susmentionned “email batching” feature.
- a new feature for automatic digests or summaries of the team activities (not only to notify inactive members, but this could give everyone a simple overview for a longer period of time)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

mute individual users
As a user, I would like to be able to ignore the postings from other users. I would like to individually select which users I want to ignore. It should be easy to add/remove users from my ignore list.

Add actual permanent deletion - on database AND filesystem level
It would be really, really cool, if one would be able to delete content permanently.
The problem is that currently the mattermost installation will grow indefinitely.
The idea is to allow system admins (or "./platform"-access) to clean storage and database.
Selectively: delete all "deleted" files, delete all "deleted" messages.Currently you can delete users and teams permanently.
(leaving their filesystem stuff)
Which basically just needs some little extension.Also add some information for sysadmins on how much filesystem storage is currently in use (+used by deleted files) and add an option that warns sysadmins if the set number of GB is exceeded.
Others have requested related ideas - see below.
