Description
Hello everyone!
The reason I have opened this topic is to propose a new feature that would be very helpfull for everyone using Nextcloud to track the activity of the data. As I have seen Nextcloud doesn’t provide notifications for the new uploads. You get them only by email but you don’t know when. We don’t have an exact time where this email will come so the users will not understand when someone will upload something (you can comment but not sure if everyone will do this). Also when you have a lot of data inside a folder in the first sight you see this(see below) :
So here you have the files their storage information and when the file is created not upload it. So when you have inside a folder a bunch of files it will be very difficult for users to understand when files have been upload it. You have to go to details for each file to track their activity.
I don’t know maybe is there any app so every user get notification for each upload someone make in their shared folder. Or what I am proposing is a new column as below so it would be very helpfull to understand when a new file is uploaded it in specific shared folder:
Wish you all the best!

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Review the existing shared-folder upload activity and notification behavior first, then clarify whether the scope is timestamp display, realtime notifications, or both. Done requires an agreed user-visible behavior and validation for uploads in shared folders.
