[Request]: Multi-column layout

[cherti]

Describe the request

I'd like to propose for consideration that Tuba gets the ability to choose multiple columns, similar to the Mastodon webinterface. It is very useful to have one column as the home feed, another one for notifications and another one for, for example, the home timeline or a specific timeline/followed hashtag/list. A multi-column layout would help with that very much, particularly when Tuba is used not as a slim client but in a wider window configuration. I don't know whether that applies to only some Fediverse implementations or all of them, but for some it would be extremely useful.

Implementation Details

• This should be an option in settings.
• This should be only available to some fediverse backends. (Include which ones on the above field).
• This is client-only (and shouldn't sync with the instance).
• This follows the GNOME HIG.

Indeed, I really long for something that could replace what https://Tweetdeck.twitter.com does, where you can add (and reorder, fold, etc.) as many columns as you want for each account's profiles, home feeds, "list" columns, search queries columns, etc. as you want. It lets you monitor multiple topics of interest in parallel, and lets you manage multiple accounts efficiently. The only other Mastodon client I'm aware of that tries to do this is https://nicolasconstant.github.io/sengi/ but it's not a native app.

I'd like that very much too !!

I looked for Linux apps, I found Sengi, as mentioned by nekohayo, and Fedistar ( https://github.com/h3poteto/fedistar ).
They both are Electron Apps, and not available on Flathub :-/

Is it possible with GTK and Libadwaita?
