Tdesktop: workmode or alternative

[danielalejandroamaro]

Could you please reactivate the workmode, or at least allow sorting by not muted first, I have a lot of groups and channels and it makes it very difficult for me to use telegram now, thanks in advance

See #7483

Now that I know how to do it, I propose one of the proposed folders as workmode, It will be helpful

@RememberTheAir that's a workaround... but not a solution.
Workmode (should) apply to the eventual list, lack of a workmode toggle like we used to have just makes folders useless, as you can't have workmode enabled while... (you've guessed it) at work.
Especially since all the notification counts would still come through. 👎

@jlsjonas What is eventual list? Why you can't select workmode folder on work? Or you want to hide folders list on work?
I personally ignore the notification count of all chats.

eventual list

The "actual" list, unrelated of what folder is selected

Why you can't select workmode folder on work?

Because then I still have an unordered list of items. Workmode is a feature that's unrelated to folders.

Workmode => hide unmuted chats from the interface completely
folders => order chats based on logical groups, which might include a mix of muted & unmuted chats

I personally ignore the notification count of all chats.

Quite hard if that's the count being used in your _app bar_, meaning I now also lose the indication if I have new (relevant) messages or not when the app is minimized.

You can now make a folder with all chats and with removing muted chats, it will be similar to workmode

[jlsjonas]

@Nashev yes, I did that already, but that makes the folder feature useless as you need one specifically for workmode. Plus it still shows a distracting badge over the "all chats" including all my muted chats

As escaping goes into the all chat, I still believe this is relevant, perhaps an option to set which filter to escape to/set by default?
