Block-level References

I hate that I have already put so much into this and still there is no word on whether or not this feature will end up in the product. Seriously considering if Reflect is worth keeping or if I should move to somthing else before I invest more of my time into it.

Skye Henderson There was a mention on Discord, wasn't there? https://discord.com/channels/813234209098563614/1202388088605642834/1202392394394521610

I cannot switch from Logseq without that feature.

Out of 744 items, this is number three, and only behind two that are currently being worked on, and get votes because they are visible in the kanban board.
Yet, this one is not under 'Planned', not 'Under review', and the Reflect team hasn't commented on it since it was posted two and a half years ago. If this is too difficult to implement, or if it is against the Reflect team's ethos, then why not at least communicate with your paying users who are spending time and energy providing valuable feedback?
If not block-level references, how about least giving headings a unique URI? That way we can create anchor links leading to a particular part of a note, saving a lot of time.
Please, at least speak to us on this subject.

New to reflect and currently trying to move all of notes over from Evernote, Notion, bear, Agenda, NotePlan; I more recently tried mem too, but ultimately decided to go with reflect for their clean look, kindle sync, contextual information that comes in from LinkedIn and other places, and a few others. This is my biggest complaint so far is not being able to link to/from separate sections of my notes. Please, please add this feature !

IMO this is table stakes requirement for a good PKM tool, particularly if you create longer form notes and/or dump long book excerpts or articles into the system.
technically you can tag the exact bullet point you want to mark for future reference but doing a search based on that tag (or even through AI query) will only surface that entire note which is highly inefficient as it then requires you to ctrl-F that tag to find that specific line. And if you have multiple instances of that tag this workaround is even less effective.

Big plus on this one. I was just trying to find a quote from a kindle book I'd highlighted in my daily as it came to mind but the only way I could add this to my daily note for context was to write it again and tag the bog. a block-level reference would make this much much better

Yes, this should be prioritized

Has there been any input from the Reflect Team on this request? I've moved back to Obsidian for the time being because I found that not having this feature was very disruptive to how I take notes.

This is a MUST! This will also make the linked references much more useful if it shows the block and not the ENTIRE daily note. It makes the UI look clunky on one of the flagship features.

When I click on a backlink I want to get straight to the line, bullet point or block where the backlink is present, not search the whole note where it is present. This functionality is a MUST HAVE.

Mario Miletta: Completely agree. The more I use Reflect, the more anxious I get about investing my time into a product that has all my data, but that may never get this essential functionality, needing me to eventually move elsewhere.

👆This is a big need - without the ability to drag and drop blocks from one note to another (ie in split view) to create contextual, inline references automatically, it severely hinders the ability to create a true thought network.
