Comment on Confluence database entries

[gabriel.radic@banxware.com]

I'm really trying to like and use Databases but oof, it's a tall order. (Yes, I have seen Notion and can't not compare.)

The lack of comments of any kind on a database entry is just unacceptable. It basically breaks the tool for me. 

I already put a few hours in recollecting and migrating some documentation into a database, only to realise this is lacking. Just a waste of time.

Database is an amazing functionality that let us think for a second that  we can  switch from external tools to fully use Confluence but the comments unavailability totally blocked this move. I agree that it is blocker for using this  very high-potential Confluence functionality.

Agreed - the lack of commenting on the data in a field kills this for any collaboration use.  Has anyone tested "SQL for Confluence" to see if that is a better solution?

Agreed, realizing this was a big bummer. Luckily found out after only some entries. 

And it seems that the normal databases are phasing out soon. So no commenting possibilities to tables at all anymore, not even on the page level? What?

I would propose to explore the option of adding cell level commenting feature.

Wait a sec, "normal databases are phasing out soon"?!

Can you tell more about this please?
