February 27, 2025 / 🐳 Share Database with Group or everyone, New Sidebar, Copy as Markdown, Timeline and required fields improvements

This is exactly what we had before the final release. However, it was somewhat “unpleasant” to have everything without Favorites folder.
Also we do have plans to add more special sections into Personal:

  • Recent - a list of recently accessed entities and views
  • Popular - a list of entities and views you visit often

I noticed :cry:

Awesome! Thanks for the special shoutout :slight_smile:

Looking forward to doing a deep dive restructuring and tidying of our Fibery.

I read you might be changing how Documents work by moving them from a view to a global database; is it worth waiting for that to get stuck into a major tidying session?

This is at least 3-4 months away. We might start it in Q2 only

Amazing to hear, really looking forward to this. Thanks.

I use copy pasting markdown like all the time (either manually or in automations). Nearly every entity I create needs to be processed by ai using markdown.

The first need I have is to copy the rich text field (Description) as markdown.
This is not yet possible, since the new markdown integration feature requires to copy the entire entity with multiple fields as markdown; for that reason, I never use that new feature.

Please allow rich text fields to be copied as markdown.
I currently have to use third party tools to accomplish this.

+1 for this please. As we replace “spaces” with “folders”, this will be very helpful in distinguishing side items.

I agree that there should be some distinction between spaces and folders, but I wonder if color is the way to go. Tbh, the way things are headed it feels like spaces are more a backend distinction. In a year from now, they may even hide spaces from users altogether.

I think Custom Sections would be most helpful. Similar to the way Smart Folders creates their own section within the sidebar. Then, we can move folders under specific sections.

Possible in today’s release March 13, 2025 / ⛅️ Weekend days setting, Avoid weekends on timeline, better required fields UI

Circling back to the sidebar after using it a while and coming to terms that the Workspace and Personal tab will remain with Favourites and Private, I would like to ask for the following refinements:

  1. Top level nodes (folders or spaces in the Workspace or the Private, Favourites section) should have a slightly larger margin on top, so that they are easier to recognise. Not much, but a little more.
  2. There should be a clear gap between the last element in Favourites and Private.
  3. I would like to be able to create folders in Favourites to manage the chaos a bit more as I find myself not switching tabs that much.

Thanks!
