Setting for Showing Download Speed in Mbps #315

Closed hl2guide closed 1 week ago

Please add a setting for displaying the Download Speed column in Mbps.

Maybe a Speed Unit drop down?

So rather than display it in bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, etc., you want it in bits, kilobits, megabits, etc.? I think that would look kind of strange to be honest. If a file on the system is 10 megabytes, then it would be 80 megabits. Since file systems using bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, etc. to represent file sizes, having it displayed with bits could be confusing.

If you hold Ctrl and click on the Download, File Size, or Download Speed columns, you can change the size unit.
