I'm starting to feel Anytype's limitations

I like the idea of sub relations. Sounds similar to what’s suggested in Multi-Type Vs. Inheritance.

Thinking back on the first limitation that I experienced in Anytype (categorizing emails), I feel like this is also the solution that I needed. Back then I had to create different relations for different types of email (main, work, personal). With sub relations, all of those can be linked to one relation (email) which makes more sense.

I am also really looking forward to the calendar view. Ever since it was mentioned in one of the Town Halls, I’ve been waiting for it to show up in the roadmap! Improvements on the task management side, as well. A second brain workspace just feels incomplete without these things.

At the moment, my docs and databases are in Notion. But I only started using it some time before I joined Alpha, so it’s more like a temporary workspace for me until my use cases (and syncing) are all doable in Anytype.

On the topic of Movies/Media database, I would also like to add that the lack of grouping in Sets (Support for grouping in set view) is what’s very limiting for me. I have a Comics database in Notion, and it really helps that I can group them based on demographics besides having filters for the types of comics. In Airtable, my research database is also grouped by letters. Would love to see that kind of polishing here in Anytype.

Thanks for bringing up this discussion!
