Description saunders 2022-11-01 04:27:58 UTC
When searching it gets cluttered real quick when wallpapers and various multimedia fill up the results. Please add the ability to hide these.

For eg. I just searched for "Sunshine" (https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine/) and the results were just hundreds of wallpapers.

You can use the categories at the left for this, isn't it enough?
Comment 2 saunders 2022-11-01 21:51:02 UTC
If I knew what category it was put under then yes, but doesn't that defeat the point of searching a little bit?
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2022-11-02 18:29:03 UTC
No, because we no longer have an "All Applications" category you can navigate to to limit the search to just apps.

Git commit 3fccafe630ea3853eda541a3f248b45474cd9625 by Nate Graham.

Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'.

Re-add the "All Applications" category

This also lets people limit a search to just apps by searching while on
this page.
