Explain the problem as you see it

Tana collapses all child nodes by default, but that's rarely how I want to see my child nodes.

When tasks are nested in area nodes, for example, it's necessary to expand the task node every time I go to the area. When links nodes are nested in project nodes, I often want to see those links every time I go to that project, rather than having to expand the links node every time.

Why is this a problem for you?

It's a lot of clicking to expand nodes constantly as I navigate my workspace. I will have my child nodes set up just the way I want them, but then if I navigate away and then back, I have to start expanding again.

Suggest a solution

Every node should be its own "mini-workspace" and remember the expanded/collapsed state of its child nodes. Just like Workflowy, for example.
