Feature request: Hide channels #346

Open TimerWolf opened 11 months ago

Hi!

First of all i would like to say thanks for a very nice client, for me i use only "one" channel on my "mobile" phone but i are connected to the same "bnc" as i am on my computer so i get "16" of "17" channels that i do not need on my mobile..

So my question is if it would be possible to make a function that let you "hide" channels that you do not want to see in the application :)

Hey,

While this feature could be implemented, I'd like to point out that if possible you should try to configure your bouncer not to send the channels in question at all. If you have a scrollback buffer for these channels configured it'd get sent every reconnect wasting your bandwidth (same for new incoming messages).

ZNC for example as far as I am aware supports this (see https://wiki.znc.in/Chanfilter I think?).

That is a very smart plugin, and does exactly what i needed.

It is very rare but this show the skills how someone could really think out a smart way to identify different types of logins on same account and customize them just amazing!

Thanks for the tip!
