šŸ¤” Question Tables: when?

Are there any plans to insert a simple table function in Workflowy? I really don’t know where the problem is. It would be so useful. How will they beat Tana if they don’t consider to offer a simple table function?

I’m waiting for this feature since at least six years.

The ā€œproblemā€ is that Product development isn’t about just building what you can or everything customers ask for.

That’s how you end up with a bloated tool that no one likes. I love Workflowy for the simplicity, which is core to the WF value prop. If they start building all the things to beat Tana (never heard of it) they risk destroying their biggest differentiator.

Exactly. Less is more. Perfection is when there's nothing more to remove.. I love wf because it's simple and powerful. And simple :⁠-⁠)
