View submission: Announcing Online Presence Indicators
I visit some penpal type subreddits now and then and it seems that even in the subreddits specifically about messaging and talking to each other overwhelmingly hate Reddit Chat and prefer you DM them. Always a mix of my chat doesn't work, chat doesn't tell me about most messages, or simply I hate chat.

Right click, block element.
The first time I saw the chat icon was also the last.

Chat just isn't what reddit is. Reddit isn't just "a community". Reddit is a way of sharing information, that has a community built around it.
It's like going to a zen monastery and installing a bunch of conference phones.
