View submission: Announcing Online Presence Indicators
I understand your logic, I think we're both just trying to seek a compromise here with a stupid and pointless feature.

Agreed, not something I want on the platform but if they've invested resources it's clearly something they're going to move forward with. I think appearing the same as offline would be the least invasive way to handle it for people who opt out (there's a reason that's the way it is done on most other platforms).
I'd rather they not add it at all since it isn't what I use or want in Reddit, but if they do I just want my opting out to be invisible to other users. I use old reddit most of the time so I won't see the indicators anyways.

That’s exactly what I was thinking when reading this. In the end, the best solution is for this feature to not exist.
