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.

Thanks,

    I would like to be notified when the "Notify when available" function is available.

    I need to be notified when both people and functions are available.

    I, too, would like to be notified of this. Microsoft, please notify me of when it is possible to subscribe to notifications announcing the Teams notification function being available.

    Why Microsoft is removing the best useful settings from Windows OS and Microsoft apps?

    Please restore this settings ASAP!

    Then why isn't this noted in the Article you posted? E.g the "activity tab in chat" it is mentioned that it is "no longer available".
    If removing the "Notify when available" isn't a bug but rather a (for most of us not understandable) decision you've made, then please state it.

    This feature was needed if a user is in a call and you don't want to check every five minutes whether he's finished the call so that you can give him a call.

    Same issue and it is March 5, 2024. I have not scanned all the replies, but need this feature ASAP. I have many, many people I want to chat with but don't want to interrupt.
