tolgaaaltas it will be quite some time before new first party extensions will be added. It's a shame if you decide against maintained third party extensions in the meantime.
Pick three features you'd love to see in Flarum
Well be great if simple users with some permissions will can block some users in their themes only
tolgaaaltas Private message support
Hopefully I can release my Private Message extension this month. 
Shahiem Yeeeeeeeeees!!!!!!
Shahiem sounds like the user you quoted isn't interested in third party extensions.

Shahiem Can't wait to see this.
Any update for this?

For our users a (1.) private messaging system like in the old days would be good. Like an E-Mail inbox; not like private discussions.
(2.) User-Management (because the old extension is abandoned sind beta8 i thnk)
(3.) User-Gallery (See: https://discuss.flarum.org/d/19320-image-gallery/10)

luceos Okay, bring it on; what are the top three features you would absolutely need Flarum to have.
- full backup and one-click upgrade tool
- user management tool (with improved options like grouping etc.)
- newsletter/weekly, monthly... digest

luceos Any mass email functionality is now closer in range due to the Queue functionality we introduced in beta 10, which we'll fine tune in upcoming releases
Thank you.

A smart email import mechanism that could parse the hideous mess and repetition in a history of email conversations and turn them into neat flarum discussion threads while set up accounts and emailing people to let them know.
It would probably need some staging mechanism to approve things as it would be very fragile but I've got a community of about 50 people currently chatting by email about really important COVID-19 research and it's all hidden away in email instead of in a public open science forum...

GruffDavies if you are able to find my wip extension mailbox feel free to try the development version out 
- Maintenance Mode (I think its necessary, there is an ext for this, but its a paid ext);
- Private Messaging (Its usefull, but not a priority since we have a nice ext from Kyrne);
- Improvement on Text Editor (Not additional feature, but it would be nice if we have new Text Editor/Composer that user friendly -- like a text color picker, choose font, text alignment, etc).
- Edited
- Improved search engine (especially inside long discussions)
- Chatbox - really useful to chit-chat and community building (like Hi all - what a wonderful day today!) WIP chat with pusher doesn't work with websocket and this one looks awesome, but it's abandoned
- Improved user management - ability to display all users from specific groups, (example: moderators or admins), audit logs and I know - we have this one, but
it should be integrated with core imho (who approve which post, who ban someone etc),It is NOW! THANK YOU!!! mass user filtering and edition (like find all user which isn't login for more than 1 year and have 0 posts and delete or find all users which more than 50 posts and add to separate group),

Wadera 1 and 3 are really important points. Totally agree.

Is there something like levels of trust in Discourse? If not, I'd like to have.
