Archiving folders and projects are confusing / erorr-prone
B
Ben Kim
Users frequently archive projects but are running into major friction:
- It’s unclear which folders are archived vs. active when moving items
- Archiving doesn’t prompt users to choose a destination folder
- The edit (pencil) icon behaves differently in archived vs. active views
- Users must build mirrored folder structures manually to maintain hierarchy
- Accidentally selecting the wrong folder can unarchive a project
The overall flow is tedious, easy to mess up, and leads to frustration — especially for teams who manage large, structured workspaces.
