[Feature Request] Manually be able to pin users to the top as favourites.

Feature Request

It would be great if we were able to pin users as favourites so they always appear at the top.

Why do you want this?

The current order of the users on the right is not personal to a user, and currently isn't configurable, makes it harder to find user who you message most often.

I feel like eventually, smarter ways of sorting the user list ( as well as manual favourites) would be smart ordering based on who you PM most often, who you interact with most in other channels etc. But the manual favourites would be a great start.
