User list

In the Zulip web and desktop app, the right sidebar shows a list of users in your organization. It shows non-deactivated users, and does not include bots.

In organizations with up to 600 users, everyone is shown. In larger organizations, only users who have been active in the last two weeks are listed. All users are included when you search for people.

When you view a stream or a topic within a stream, subscribers to that stream are shown separately from other members of your organization. To avoid distraction, you can hide the user list any time.
