Dekko as click?
-
Dan,
Your Dekko app is for me one of the most used applications. I really like it and it helps me to monitor during the day in moments when I can not use my FreeBSD netbook/laptop my mails or answer them.
Said this, there is one important thing I'm missing in Dekko: A threaded view of the mails and the ability to remove a full thread on one click. I'm subscribed to a lot of technical mailing-list, esp. *@freebsd.org, openssl, gcc, ... and normally I do not read all incoming mails and decide based on the Subject: if some thread matters me or if I can help on some question/discussion. I did an analysis of my yesterday incoming mails: tech-list: 166, private-matters:3, SPAM:18, sent/bcc: 1, others:2. And most of the 166 I just deleted (by sliding right and pushing the red button). You see from where the request come of deleting full threads. I do not need this picture of the sender, I switched this avatar off (already for security reasons to not being monitored) and it just shows the letter(s) of the sender. This space of 8x8mm for me is just wasted space on the display. Maybe it could be used for threading, I don't know the API behind Dekkos UI and how much it would cost or if it is possible at all.
Having said all this (which is no critic, only a Change Request), I want to thank you for this great application and your work!

@ierihon you're posting on a thread that's (almost) a year old
Anyway, Dekko for xenial is under development currently and we all will have a .click package when it's done.
-
@advocatux i will also
There is dev version for testing?

@ierihon not for now. If you want to collaborate with Dekko project:

@advocatux i'm just beginner...
Thanks!

@ierihon yep, like most of us, but you can collaborate on different levels if you want. From translating an app to programming, from writing documentation to helping on the forum, there are a lot of tasks to push this project forward. Even people with no time to spare can donate.
What I'm trying to say is that UBports and related projects are all 100% volunteer based, there isn't a big company fueling the project.
We all (you too included) are making this.

@advocatux i understand. Thanks! I will do, what can i do...
