Hide or reveal inactive channels
To avoid clutter in the left sidebar, Zulip automatically hides channels with no recent messages if you're subscribed to 20+ channels. You can configure Zulip to show or hide inactive channels regardless of how many you're subscribed to.
It's easy to reveal or find hidden inactive channels if you need to access them.
