I used the @today marker in Notion several times a day and I am really missing it in Fibery.
What should happen when you @today?
Is it in a rich text field/doc? Or in a date field?
Sorry for not being clearer. It’s in a richt text field/doc and will be turned into “yesterday” on the next day and will turn into a proper date after that. It’s basically like mentioning a person. You can find more info about it in Notion’s docs: Comments & mentions – Notion Help Center
The reminder function is not something I personally use. My usecase is rather to document things in tasks e.g. “called XYZ @today”
What effects do you envisage mentioning a date will have? I mean, when you mention a person, they get a notification.
When you mention a date, what should happen?
Is the implication of your request that the user who wrote the @date gets a notification on that date? Or perhaps other users do?
Or do you mean that you want to be able to plot entities on a calendar/timeline on the specific date mentioned in the rich text field?
Or do you merely want a shortcut for typing dates manually?
My primary goal would be that I don’t have to figure out the date and type it (as easy as that) plus giving it a formatting that stands out a bit. Could also be done by creating a shortcut on my computer, I have to admit. I’ve just grown to love this feature in notion and notice that I really miss it.
Sending notifications when the date is reached is something that Notion can do but is not my primary usecase (perhaps for others there might be more benefit in this).
Just for clarification, I think this is functionality beyond merely mentioning a date:
So typing @tomorrow
is not the same as typing @remind tomorrow
