auto hide no new message channel #830

Closed acelan closed 1 month ago

acelan commented 1 month ago

Is it possible to hide channels that there is no new message and the channel is not in favorite list? I have too many channels and there is no space on the left side bar for DM. Thanks.

HI @acelan, there is not a way to do that. There are keybindings to help navigate in those situations, in case you aren't aware: C-<arrow key> will scroll the channel list and M-a will switch to the next channel with unread messages, including DM channels. That can be useful to test whether there are off-screen unread channels. In addition, when mouse mode is enabled, the channel group headings can be clicked to collapse them (e.g. Public Channels) and the mouse can be used to interact with the channel list scroll bar.
