> Hi there, great discussion. Our current vision (subject to change):
> 
> - Search will be more powerful and basically will incorporate all abilities of current sets (filter/sorts/etc.)
> - Sets will be basically saved search requests, maybe we even will rename them
> - Collections will be primary way to work with many objects in more “traditional” data base way with a sprinkle of Anytype flat structure

> The rough timeline I can forsee:
> 
> 1. Ability to change default type for collections and sets by relation (start of Q4)
> 2. More robust sets querying (end of Q4)
> 3. More powerful search functions (first half of 2024 depending on other things)
> 4. Some things towards the sets being part of the search (Somewhere in 2024 hard to say, it is roughly a priority or smth)
