Channel hierarchies #21

Open mahemoff opened 8 years ago

mahemoff commented 8 years ago

Would like at least one level of hierarchy for rooms or the ability to (tag) them and then automatically list them in groups. I guess this will eventually be offered under one of the premium price plans.

As with any user-interface, it needs to consider introducing a hierarchy once there are 10+ items in a flat list. And Slack instances can have a lot more than that.

I just thought of this too. So, if you had #games, with sub-channels #boardgames and #indiegames, would #games get all the messages from #boardgames and #indiegames, but not the other way around?

For my own needs, I wasn't even thinking of anything that fancy. Simply wanting a cleaner view of the channel list when there are many channels, via groups.

(Presently there are already three groups effectively - starred, regular, muted. Channels are alphabetically ordered within each of these. I'd be happier if I had expandable/collapsible "outer" lists for each group and then within each group, I could see starred/regular/muted for this group.

I was looking for that to, nothing fancy, just a way to organize my channels.

It'd definitely be a must to have.
