Comment on In light of changes coming to discord: Sharkord
Skullgrid@lemmy.world 1 week agoWhat you’re proposing as a solution is that every single user in a Matrix space is responsible for sorting and grouping all of the channels in the space that they’ve joined. That’s a ridiculous proposal because 99% of users aren’t going to go to that ridiculous effort, they’re going to be happy with the default settings.
it’s so ridiculous that it’s what IRC clients and Slack does.
I’m sorry that I forgot to also specify that what you’re talking about could be part of the admin settings for the specific server, which is where that information should be, which again, is not going to be part of the chat protocol.

The Matrix protocol sends the channel name and icon from server to user client. It’s one extra field to add the ordinality. Two extra fields to add the category and ordinality. Adding your idea onto My idea so users can also reorder channels after the space moderator orders them would be ideal, but please don’t mistake My suggestion for the idea you came up with.

ok, well good luck with the other thread where the other guy is also trying to help you understand that you aren’t quite right on what you’re upset about. I’m not making suggestions, I’m trying to help you understand what you are misinterpreting .
