My primary use, since I have/had this configured it in Todoist like this, is as a Reading Lists project, with each column a article category (e.g. Finance, Technology, Mindfullness, etc.). Then sort by priority and receive a clear overview of my (way too many) articles to read. Using a vertical list of sections somehow defines one category as more important as the other, while I treat columns equally. I might have to use a different app for reading material, but I prefer everything in one app. :)

Absolutely, i use them like this as well, not for task organisation like “today”, “soon” “sometime” etc.
I really enjoy the vertical list structure for organising information and each column is equal

I think this is really important for weekly planning. The ability to see all tasks planned for the week, laid out in columns day by day, allows you to easily adjust your plans in advance. I don’t use time blocking so don’t want to schedule things onto the calendar to see my workload for a day later in the week.

I wasn’t initially interested in the Kanban idea, but I have been using it with a different tool and have really appreciated it. There you are able to split your planned work for the day (with other views for tomorrow’s tasks, weekly (this is then all sprints combined into one column), etc.) into sprints via a Kanban view. This has been really helpful for those who don’t gel with time blocking. It is also great for being able to see quickly, what you achieved in the week.

Fundamental teniendo en cuenta las distintas Áreas de vida y proyectos que el kanban tenga : las líneas horizontales que dividen un tablero para separar o clasificar diferentes proyectos, equipos o prioridades se llaman carriles o carriles horizontales. En el argot profesional, el término en inglés swimlanes (carriles de piscina).

Yes, please! I would really appreciate this because I’m double-capturing in both Griply and in a separate Kanban board for personal side projects.

My problem:
I have too many goals/projects open. And I want to focus more on finishing projects. From the timeline view, this kinda works but Im also just continious moving projects down the timeline (a classic “ gant” optimistic problem). I could just not add dates yet but then my “ backlog” of goals is too larger. So I would like to see upcomming goals/projects in time.
So something like a kanban board or a goal tag would be nice as this would allow me to filter in a timeline view

Oh this is for tasks. I would prefer this for goals as well

I like the boards used in Timestripe or Amazing Marvin (the orbit idea - see how it is shown in the funnel youtube video by their team -could be especially useful to view across life areas)- just as an inspiration for the design team.

I want this for sure. It would be an excellent new feature.
I have too many goals which clutter my timeline goal view. I am struggling through the following modes
Gant optimistic - I add dates for smaller subgoals but in practice they take a lot longer and then Im moving goals on the m/q view further down the line. So Goals that are not yet really started, I should not give date yet.
No distinction - However, when I add not dates the list of goals I would like to start becomes too long. So I would lik to have something like a ready column/tag such that I can see what is currently in progress and what is will be comming. So Ideally I would like to finish as much as possible and not start new ones.
My kinda solution (I think)
Only create very small goals (week long), those I can plan somewhere in time. Then for that week I focus only on that goal.
In obsidian outside griply, I keep an overview off the projects/goals (same thing) I like to start and which need to be finished
My proposed griply solution
Workaround with current functionality - allow to group on a tag. Give Goals tags

When tagging is a thing, add a kanban view.
