[Speedup Request] Option to "not" load Icons at all/ to open blank-page at Startup. #352

Open f3atures opened 7 years ago

f3atures commented 7 years ago

Dear Mr. Benoit and Team,

I would be pleased to turn off the Images in the Options-Menu to get a much faster pamac.

In addition I would like to open a clear or blank page at startup, with a "Searchbar only" option.

Sincerely

Next Idea: Option to save the last state, the last opened tab, because - with the newer UI - I need some clicks to get to the window I want to see; but if I can select a different startup-window, for example "Groups" the System woud be faster.

The new version is faster already, but I dont need the App-Market aspect of the program. I will not browse in all the windows, that seems bloated for me. I can live with the "grouped" list as startup-side. Please make the Startup window as an option. The first load of "categories" I don´t use, eats up my time. It is just a subjective feeling, that the load of the Pakages and Icons slows my system down significantly. The effect of optionality would speed up the process in a number of other applications.

Please do add this! If they don't, @f3atures , you could try pamac-classic, which is a fork of version 5 that is being maintained and kept as a strict package manager (versus a store)
