- names of tags on cards, card id's for referencing from git commits, smarter use of screen estate. Everyone I work with uses at least a couple of plugins. - Not when you move them from board to board - But that's not linking a commit, that's linking to github. In JIRA I had full integration and even auto linking of commits to issues. You give a repo url and the rest is easy. - I recall (can't test this) that moving a card is not logged. I think that's pretty basic functionality and it helps in asynchronous communication. - card urls are not stable over different boards. - moving cards over columns. - Yes, but I cannot nest cards. Simple divide and conquer strategy will scatter takes over many cards. To-do lists are not sufficient. - seems like a nasty ui decision, dragging with scrolling. - No, in the description. But the pre has no word wrap and the pop-up only takes a quarter of the width of my screen (without browser plugin) - large smilies on cards for example, or whatever these things are. - I'm absolutely sure I saw advertisement in a card. Maybe it was caused by a browser plugin? I've used many task management systems. I understand the appeal of Trello. For me, it is just not sophisticated enough and misses essentials.

Moves up and down a list are logged, but not shown in the UI (only visible via the api). All moves were shown at one point, but it was just way too noisy. > card urls are not stable over different boards. That's still not true. > moving cards over columns. The card moves physically each time and each move appears in the log. > I'm absolutely sure I saw advertisement in a card. Trello suggests turning on a power-up if it looks like it would help (like github power-up if you attach a github link). "Advertisement" seems like a strong word here?

  Well, things change, also at Trello. This does not seem to be a thing anymore, but was when we were setting up our workflow (https://trello.com/c/sSldoiVf/46-deprecated-mentioning-cards-by-number-e-g-46-creates-hyperlinks https://trello.com/c/sSldoiVf/46-deprecated-mentioning-cards...). Actually, it seems changes in descriptions are not logged. Even though I normally would not want to see this, it sometimes comes in handy. Just a simple line: "Edited: John Doe, 2017-02-22". Well, suggesting to turn on power-ups on each and every card, styled in a way as if it is part of the card. W.r.t. moving cards over column: if I move a card from A to B and the move is not synchronised (because of lag or a Trello Server outage), a co-worker might move the card as well (say, from to-do to in-progress). Once the situation stabilises, there is (or was, the last time I noticed this issue) no visual feedback of this situation. It's a minor annoyance, but I've noticed that the 'eventually consistent' UI makes it possible that inconsistent states are reached.
