Limit # of new chapters shown

[Hounder]

Sometimes someone may do a mass upload of chapters to a followed manga, thus resulting in a very large number of entries being shown. Maybe it would be a good idea to limit the actual number shown, and add a message to indicate there are more new chapters with that title.

Example: Manga x up mass updated with 30 chapters and on the follows list shows the 5 last updated chapters from it, along with the message " + 25 other updates".

Of course, there could be other ways to word it, but I assume you see the general idea. Might help people on mobile devices so they don't have as large a list to scroll through on the Updates page.

These suggestions involve some technical challenges.

I've seen multi-chapter uploads with multiple breaks in sequence. In the cases that I've observed, the holes did not correspond to chapters already uploaded, but they could.

There are also difficulties associated with partial chapter uploads, indicated with point notation (as in “Ch. 14.1”) and quasi-chapter uploads, also indicated with point notation (as in “8.5”). Sometime both partial chapters and quasi-chapters are thus noted within the same series.

Perhaps none of these issues cannot find some good solution, but even then it looks to involve a great deal of work just to spare the visitor the hassle of scrolling and of looking at a next page.

@Hounder While it would be useful, we're probably not going to do it because mass-updates become more and more rare in the future as our library becomes filled and eventually we reach a point where we're left with nothing but single chapter updates
