Note aging

[input_sh]

This “note status” scenario really resonates with me. I’m using page icons in Notion for that:

Basically some custom icons that I upload to each note:

• tree → There’s a bunch of stuff written in that note.
• growing → There’s some of the stuff in there, but it could be expanded upon.
• sprout → There’s like a sentence or two written in there.

When I look into my “Topic Forest” (idea borrowed from Valentin Perez), I can quickly asses what I will get as a result before I click on the note.

The closest I can get to it now is to add something like 1-5 at the beginning of note’s name. This would be helpful, as it would allow me to add emojis to h1 tags to achieve similar results:

Use H1 or YAML property "title" instead of or in addition to filename as display name

I’m interested in a setting that would use a note’s H1 or front-matter title instead of or in addition to the filename as the display name everywhere: links, backlinks, graph view, search, etc. How would this be useful: For users who use IDs as filenames or who generally want more concise filenames Use illegal filename characters and emojis in note titles More readable graph, search, backlinks, etc. Other assumptions/thoughts/questions: Is this global or feature-specific? By feature-specif…

I’ve also thought about abusing tags for the purpose (add #1-5 to a note, allowing me to search for all notes that need to be worked on), but from a discovery perspective, it’d still require me to click on a note to see the which of the tags I’ve associated with it.
