Active/Idle/Away Status #4

Open pvanspronsen opened 4 years ago

pvanspronsen commented 4 years ago

Problem There is currently no way to know if a user is available or not. In some situations a user might need an immediate answer to a question, but their message will go unanswered because they are not aware that the recipient is unavailable.

Solution Does matrix track user activity? Can we tie into anything like that to provide a visual indication of when a user is active, Idle for a set period of time, or logged off?

Alternative Solution None.

Additional context No.

Sounds like this is something that was initially added, but got removed because it was buggy/unreliable: https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-react-sdk/commit/91a41392b4b62bee073df5e1f8f67ad3c7279d47

Seems like something they want to add in but need to hammer out some problems first.

However, you can see if a user is offline when in the same room by hovering over their name in the list (they also grey out when not online)
