The holy grail for me from the countless apps Iāve used over the years would be to keep things in place where they were created (e.g. meeting minutes, or a project plan) and have them display in other places (e.g. task lists) where I needed to see them, without copy & pasting, or elaborate filters or browsing through links or trees. Updates in one place to be reflected in the other places, which is what Mirrors seems to do very well.
I think Iād like some more UI clues than a diamond bullet, but I can see how theyāve tried to make all mirrored items equal to each other. But the demo video of showing almost that exact scenario of tasks captured in a meeting node, which was then shown in a kanban/table with the tasks mirrored from other nodes was very very tempting.
At the moment Iām using backlinks to achieve this and similar concepts - e.g. I have a āTodayā node which I link to from all the tasks within projects I want to do today, so the tasks stay in place in the project but appear in the backlinks list, but that list isnāt sortable or directly editable so itās a little clumsy.
Iām still not ready to make the jump from Dynalist and miss out on the custom CSS, dates, colours, separate files, Zapier support, but I dropped Workflowy years ago when it started to feel like a bit of a dead product. Itās very much back alive now. I understand the team are few in number and Obsidian is exciting, but itād be a shame for Dynalist to start looking stale.
