What I was referring to was simply that there is a little color coded status symbol by a person's chat icon, which is green if they are active, and turns yellow if they are not doing much.
However, if you have a meeting or appointment on your calendar, or you are presenting/videoconferencing it goes to red, so you really don't have to be green or yellow any more than you want to.
Oh boy are you wrong.
I think I recall threads on HN about such things existing.
But I'm not aware of how to use them or that my organization is using them.
It wouldn't shock me if they were, but my prior is no more than 50%.
I observe that people around me usually don't use 99.9% or more of Microsoft software features.
But in context, MS Teams has extensive dashboard analytics, some of it promoted under the guise of "employee wellness" but mostly used for command and control and monitoring, and there are several addons that add even more extensive tracking and analytics, e.g. ActivTrak.
