This is a short screencast running through how to setup patchbay in "work mode" using the Default Tabs functionality in the settings page.

This cast was made with patchbay v7.16.1 which can be found here: github.com/ssbc/patchbay/releases

Another work practice of mine when I get too flustered by too many tabs is CTRL+r to reload. In combination with default-tabs, it means I can start again really easily.

Also useful if Patchbay is doing something weird (though this does not help me solve problems!)

p.s. @dan watch out skimming past your inbox tab ... you end up inadvertantly leaking info! e.g.

@mix , yes that was a calculated move :) nothing super secret there. actually normally I expose the raw pulse of the network by having /public and /private open instead but didn't show /private as that would have shown the actually messages rather than the metadata itself.

RE: the diversity session at scuttle-fest - the form is still emerging but if it happens it won't be a secret meeting, so nothing too much revealed there :) (I hope!)

@mix I just realised another thing i would LOVE in the context of #dark-crystal work. I'd love to be able to see all posts by a group of people. so for example

I know kieran, peg and mu basically only speak about dark crystal - sometimes they don't tag their posts with one of the dark crystals

so, I'd love to open a default tab with

@kieran+@peg+@mu+@mix

If that makes sense... back of the envelope is that feasible. if it is I would be up for github issuing it and seeing if we could get it gitcoin funded - but would need back of the envelope notion of how many days work it'll cost.
