What can we do to bring more attention to this issue? @HarHarLinks Basically put into words exactly what i want. This is also something i would need for making a very interactive bot/frontend project i am working on.

HarHarLinks commented 3 years ago

@IF-Adin this is being worked on: matrix-org/matrix-doc#3189

IF-Adin commented 3 years ago

@HarHarLinks Oh, very good! Thank you.

So multiple display names would also be linked to different profile pictures (basically having display profiles)? And another cool thing would be having a profile picture history like in telegram?

@t3chguy theres still no profile picture history :o

t3chguy commented 2 years ago

@alittlebitofit the Matrix Spec still offers no sane way to look up the history of a state event or profile, hence Element not being able to show such.

HarHarLinks commented 2 years ago

profile picture history

might also be seen as an anti-feature, see the "don't show historical display names" topic

Does/should this depend on https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/1228 (but still precede https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/issues/3793)?

As has been discussed in MSC3189, it could be made to depend on MSC1228, but that's been deemed a bit of a crazy solution rather than a practical one
