WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND
I propose a unification of how user-created sets/objects and the default Bin widget with how the default favorites, sets, collections, and recent widgets already work. With the latter widgets, you can click into those elements and get a sidebar view of the objects contained within. This makes it so that you don’t have to context switch from your editor view just to see the entirety of what’s inside. Very helpful. I appreciate that.
However, it seems with the former, this same convenience isn’t extended. I’d have to ask why that is. It certainly seems just as helpful as the functionality the default widgets have—if not more, because you can customize which objects you want to gather/link with your sets, collections, and objects to a greater degree than what can be currently achieved with the defaults.
I’d also find it especially helpful if this functionality was granted to the default Bin widget. As of now, deleting an object permanently requires a context shift from the object that you’re currently viewing to a full screen view of the Bin—which, for me, at least, isn’t necessary because the objects I want to delete are almost always very few (so, with the Bin view, I’m typically just staring at a few objects and a whole lot of unused whitespace) and, I don’t plan on selectively filtering out which objects to delete; I delete whatever is in there indiscriminately because it’s in the Bin for a reason: I don’t want that/those object(s) in my Anytype.
Let me know if these changes to unify widget behavior resonate with you—though, you’ll notice that I didn’t mention the Library widget, because, well, it’s not something I’m using very often and could honestly take or leave whether or not it gets the updated functionality. If including the Library in these changes is important to you, tell me in the comments. I’m currently undecided, but, leaning on the side of prudence, I’m thinking it will be important for many users that the same functionality is granted to Library.
