I hope that tana can annotate the reference sources of certain node viewpoints like a research paper.

Actions

Explain the problem as you see it

I hope to add evidence to the written content, increase credibility, and establish mutual connections with cited references. Just like a research paper.

Why is this a problem for you?

Hope to add references for nodes or a piece of text.

Actions

Explain the problem as you see it

I hope to be able to add annotated references to nodes or a section of text, and display the references at the bottom or sidebar of the article. Just like the format of references in our research papers.

Why is this a problem for you?

I have a need to write papers and require an elegant method for citing references.
There is also a need to annotate reference articles in non-academic papers.

Suggest a solution

Display the annotated nodes or text segments in the form of subscripts, hover to display detailed information, and display all references for this article in the sidebar.

Hope tana can have regional pricing.

Actions

Explain the problem as you see it

I just came across your paid subscription plan which costs $10 per month. I really love your Tana software, but unfortunately, I cannot afford such a high fee. Not every country is developed, and I hope that Tana can consider regional pricing.

Shortcut key recommendations for node operations

Actions

Explain the problem as you see it

It is very inconvenient to operate the nodes by clicking on the small dots with a mouse or using cmd+arrow keys.
So I have some shortcut key suggestions:

  1. cmd+click: Expand the node.
  2. cmd+shift+click: Enter the node.(Open the page of this node.)
  3. cmd+option+click: Expand all child nodes.
  4. shift+return: Inline line break

Why is this a problem for you?

Nodes automatically record creation time and modification time

Actions

Explain the problem as you see it

Each node should have its own creation time and last modification time, so that information recorded anywhere will appear in the log of the current day. It can also be used to query the content of notes within a certain time period.

Support for I18N in Tana. (Internationalization language)

Actions

Explain the problem as you see it

I am writing to express my interest in seeing Tana support I18N. As a user, I believe that having internationalization Tana would greatly enhance the user experience for non-native English speakers.

I would like to recommend using Crowdin/inlang as a platform for community involvement in the I18N development process. Crowdin allows for easy collaboration and participation, which can help increase community engagement and speed up the I18N progress.

Automatically obtain location information, weather information, sports and health information, etc., as much personal information as possible.

Actions

Explain the problem as you see it

Hope that Tana can record everything about me.
Get and organize all information possible through mobile phones and AI.

  • Location/trajectory, and weather information.
  • Exercise and health information.
  • Calendar schedule and task information.
  • Audio/video logging function, AI automatically organizes content outline.

Of course, you can choose the scope of permissions and the scope of display according to the user's needs (record all information, but only display a part in the log).

NEW: Shortcut-based editing and interaction modes

Actions

Explain the problem as you see it

For blocks with sub-items.

  1. you can expand the hierarchy by cmd+click.
  2. can be opened in a new window by cmd+shift+click.

Why is this a problem for you?

I hope to be able to build a more flexible and convenient editing mode through keyboard shortcuts, instead of only being able to expand levels by clicking on the left dot. (This dot is really hard to click)

As above

Multilingual support

Actions

Explain the problem as you see it

Hope Tana supports multiple languages, as a Chinese, there is no Chinese interface when recommending to friends is often one of their complaints.
I know that the team resources are limited, so it is recommended to use a collaborative translation platform to let various language communities organize translations. The tana team is only responsible for review and coordination.

Resolve unstable network connection, frequently prompting "you appear to be offline" issue.

Actions

Explain the problem as you see it

I keep encountering the 'You appear to be offline' message, which prevents me from using it properly.

Although China has issues with internet firewalls, I have already been using the network proxy clashX. There haven't been any network problems when using other software, only tana frequently goes offline and prompts forcefully.

So I hope the tana team can seriously address and resolve network issues, instead of just saying "this is a problem with China's internet firewall, this is a political issue, it cannot be resolved."
