View submission: Announcing Online Presence Indicators
People may just not even know they want it and not know to look for it. I fail to see the harm in the change as proposed.

We could ask them. Announce the feature and allow people to decide if it's a feature they want or not (opt-in).
But nah, people don't know what they like, so we need reddit admins to tell us what we like. By force.

Then ask them about it, or make a big announcement about it, or DM every single reddit user.
...and **let them opt in if they want it**.

You fail to see the harm? Then read any of the top level comments that give extremely good reasons why this is bad.
