The, 
  • ... in the /$MID/t/ (as opposed to /$MID/T/) endpoint
might be what you're looking for.  See the "[flat|threaded]" links.

I run out of horizontal space with the giant fonts I like to
use, but it might be preferable for some folks.



And about the 2/38 tree structure; I am starting to avoid it
(for Xapian users, at least) but haven't performed the reindex
on all my servers, yet:

https://public-inbox.org/meta/20160805010300.7053-1-e%4080x24.org/

Of course, Xapian is only an optional dependency and won't
affect git internals.

I might end up having to nuke history occasionally anyways,
(in case somebody invokes the DMCA, or there's enough spam
 to warrant permanent deletion)

(Will try to digest the rest of your message later).
