Online/Offline Statuses

Open viasux opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

Describe the solution you'd like

Online / Offline statuses showing on user 'profile' & icon

Additional context

Some homeservers don't have statuses, maybe don't even show a status icon for users on such servers?

Alternatively, for HS which don't support statuses, maybe just show people as offline?

That would be confusing to new users, and would make the offline status mean less.

This definitely needs to be looked into :)

I'm planning to try to implement this. I don't have UI/UX design ideas of my own that I'm sold on, though. If anyone has ideas for a design, please tell me about them here.

Nheko simply shows a green dot in bottom right corner of avatars while showing nothing next to offline users or users whose HS don't have indicators (or don't share them)

is this being worked on? it would be really useful to me and it's probably the one missing feature to make matrix work as good as discord for me

my two cents on this, i think instead of doing it where online shows up and offline is dark, we could take a page out of discord's book by only differentiating based on a green dot or a grey circle, and homeservers that don't support don't have a dot at all. The only thing is I don't know if there is a way to differentiate over federation if a user is offline or if the server doesn't support presence.

Looking on the spec for presence, I believe unavailable would be set for users who don't support presence, and offline for homeservers that do.
