[NEW] Add unread options for direct messages#7658
Conversation
|
The default behaviour I like. But I don't understand the need or want to mention someone in a DM? In my opinion mentions in direct messages are completely pointless.. You don't need draw attention in a 2 party room. Your message is always to the other person. Sending a message in a DM I think should be exactly the same whether someone mentions you or not. My usage of other chat platforms... i've never seen a mention in a DM treated any differently then a normal message. Every time someone mentions me in a DM I cringe... To me it makes absolutely no sense. I'd really hate to start encouraging that behaviour |

I have to say that I agree with you @geekgonecrazy .. this PR is per @rodrigok 's request. I think since we didn't have time to discuss about #7580 and #7589 this PR is a good opportunity for it. I personally like the old behavior for all counters (they all should look the same IMO).. since here we are talking about direct messages, I agree the only behavior would be increase a counter for all messages, even if we hardcode this behavior only for DMs. @RocketChat/core comments are very welcome. |
