Why is my "Notify when available" missing when I click on a user in Teams?

This is what is missing from a user we support.

Hello WilliamHicks6,

The Notify when available feature is not available in the new Teams. Currently, you will need to select a user’s avatar or profile photo anywhere in new Teams to quickly get an overview of their online status, next available calendar slot in Outlook, work hours, local time, or work location either remote or in office.

    I found that to be a very helpful tool. We are a cross-functional team that works remotely and on different schedules. Setting a notification is a loss for me.

    Does Microsoft have any news on when this will be fixed? This feature was especially useful when working with employees who frequently get pulled into spontaneous meetings/calls.

    Why was this feature removed? This is/was an extremely efficient means of catching someone's attention when they first come online or when they're between meetings. Does Microsoft plan to restore the feature some time in the future?

    Neither MS Teams update nor feedback from them!
