Feature Request: personally group a creator's different channels together. #244

Open Kaliaila opened 9 months ago

From my understanding, the current intention is that creators will make their Harbor profile and link all of their different channels together. Then after that has been done they would show up here under a single grouping in the subscriptions' and the creators' tabs.

At present however, the majority of creators have neither a harbor account nor linked their various channels to a harbor account, because of this, most creators with 3, 4 or even 5+ channels across various platforms.

So the request is for a way to allow the user to group (just for theirself) all of those different channels as one creator. Or at least to allow that for subscriptions.

This would address at least to some degree and issue of having to scroll through the Creator and or subscription list and backtrack multiple times to find the specific channel of theirs that you are wanting since the majority of them share the same logo icon on all of their channels across platforms.

This is somewhat related to request #144.

*Corrected the number to the one I meant.

I wrote a whole spec for an app like this a few years ago, though knowing I'd never have time to write it. My solution for this was that a creator would have eg @Rossmann as their polycentric id, setup with THEIR preferred order of video sites. If however there wasn't one then I could create one prefixed to my poly ID, eg rossmann@BeemanDev that I would use & maintain but that others could also follow. Search could also show these secondary groupings ordered by followers of it + trust level of primary ID. GrayJay team could automate this and create eg rossman@GrayJay with all his accounts merged and do this for every creator searched for on the fly who's ID exactly matches the search pattern @rossmann (case insens).
