There's a chevron next to the channel name, indicating that you can get more details if you tap that. I get that it's a significant design change but I don't think it's that unintuitive.

It’s a little unintuitive that it shows status of the people in the server and not something to so with that specific channel.

Not quite. It shows the online status for the people that are in that channel. Not all users are in all channels so, imo, it makes sense. The only complaint I can think of is that you can't see the status for all of the people in a server.

It's not clear though, because if I reminder correctly, tapping channel names before this update would give you information related to the channel, didn't it?

And it still does...

It does the same as it did before. Hitting the channel name was just an alternative navigation method to swiping the chat window.

I think it's a clear step in the wrong direction
