Not grantable to apps (active, first-party).

Read the public presence of people on behalf of one person: the online/away/dnd/offline state, status line and emoji, and whether they are streaming on OpenVibe.Live. It answers only for people that person follows or has a DM with (and themselves); invisible, show\_status off and strangers are never disclosed, and last seen is never returned. First-party services only (Chat draws the dots in its DMs and member lists); never grantable to an app or an agent.
