About 6 months agoIn September 2022, Bookmarks evolved into Saves.  (seeSee: Bookmarks have evolved into Saves)

Features of this evolution are the abilities to add private notes to a saved post, and to organise saved post into lists, both of which are quite useful.

But while both of these actions are easy to do, once they are done, the only way that you can view the private notes or check which list the post is saved in, is by finding the post in the saves tab on your profile page — you can't see themthese details on the post's page.

I often happen to come across a post that I have previously saved, but to find out the details I have to open a separate tab/window, and then find the post in the All saves list (or in one of various particular lists). Not only does this take a while (on the site that I use the most I have over 100hundreds of items in about 10a dozen lists), but then the details are in a separate tab/window to the actual post.

Please add a box that shows what the private notes are, and which list a saved post is in, to the saved post's page.

This would make Saves much easier to make the most out of.

Mock-up

It could look like something like this:

mockup: saved post, showing (circled) below the post: which list it is in, and the private note below

To the aforementioned post, I left this answer which got lots of up-votes but no real response. I presume it just got lost in the 3 pages of answers — which is why I'm reposting it here.
