Make hiding channels separate from muting channels.

Everyone has that channel that they don't want to see. Examples being the self-promotion channels, spam channels, etc. Naturally, those channels would get muted and hidden.

But on the opposite spectrum, there's channels that you do want to see. But you don't want to get notifications for. Examples being heavy activity channels such as #general and #off-topic channels. You don't want to hide their existence, but you don't want notifications every time someone says 'hi' or something (sorry Bob).

Currently there is a mechanic to hide muted channels, but personally I believe they should be separate from muting a channel. Here is how I believe they could work: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/498612767897550850/661835143249657866/unknown.png

After hiding them, it could then be individually unhidden by right clicking the server icon as such: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/498612767897550850/661832370680234004/unknown.png

Then have a neat screen something like this: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/498612767897550850/661834883093626898/unknown.png

Of course, it could look a lot better than my example screenshots, but I believe they can make discord far more convenient and much more lively. Thank you for reading!

Full support for this. I was just looking to see if I could hide only a few specific channels on some servers I'm in. Aside from hiding all muted channels, there doesn't seem to be a way to do it. I'd still like to look at some of those channels from time to time. It's just a couple specific ones I don't want to see, or potentially misclick on and open by accident.

This would make such a big difference for servers with tons of channels. When a server has tons of channels I have to mute those I'm not interested in and hide the muted channels but there are channels I like to check up on that get swept up in the hiding. This causes me not to check up on them as much as often and, more importantly, it makes it so to check them at all I have to uncheck hide muted channels. Maybe that doesn't sound like much work, and maybe it isn't, but that small amount of friction has been a real irritant to me.
