As Showdown is currently down (I think), it would be useful (and cool) to display a PS! status on Smogon, since many people start asking everywhere whether it's down or not. We could simply add a green or red circle next to "Play online!" in the top bar. If this sounds good, let me know, as I'm not sure whether we currently have a ping endpoint.

It could simply be called every time Smogon's client refreshes, there would be no need for continuous pinging.

Edit: If you're concerned about the number of requests, you could limit it to members only.

It's actively working for me, but I like the idea if we can get it nailed down consistently.

It just came back for me, maybe it was on my side. That's why it would be useful!

could we get a cubone as a “skull” react? i think the skull emoji has a distinct utility as a react that’s currently missing from the react palate as is

There are no plans to add any further reacts, as stated previously in this thread.

It’s hard to sort things. When I open it I don’t see everything I want

A way to automatically format time similar to Discord. This would ease timezone troubles when silly billies like me can't do math on timezones consistently. The idea is that you could do /time 9:00PM or something and it would show as whatever time it would be for the opponent as well as yourself. So if it's /time 9:00PM and the person sending the msg is GMT-0 and the recipient is GMT+1 then it'd show as 10:00PM for them when, as well as showing the correct date in case it crosses over midnight. It would also work for whoever else is viewing the msg as sharing the time in their own timezone.

This exists, it follows Unix Time's timestamps similar to how Discord does it. <t:1775421720:f> = <t:1775421720:f>
