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,

    Reminder: Vote to help 'notify when available' get returned!

    Notify when available not in new teams? · Community (microsoft.com)

    New Teams Desktop: follow a user's presence / status and then notify them of availability (notification) · Community (microsoft.com)

    Important :

    To everyone adding to this thread asking Microsoft to bring back the missing feature, this is a community forum where volunteer users provide some support. It's meant to ask questions to the community, not for making requests to Microsoft. It's most probably not even monitored so adding your voice here has little chance of getting their attention.

    Thanks Sebastien - I thought it was monitored by Microsoft at some point

    Is there somewhere we can request the return from Microsoft directly?

    Sorry, I found the feedback site in the end yesterday, it used to be user voice - I think this is the one you want to vote up: https://feedbackportal.microsoft.com/feedback/idea/bd4374ec-88ff-ed11-a81c-000d3ae5b6f4 

    There are a few of them, but if one exists already and has the highest votes, I imagine it's better to use that one and comment on the back of it if you want to share your views.
