Feature Suggestion: Reverse Uncle Button for completed goals

The uncle button is quite useful for getting goals off your dash that aren’t immediately relevant because you’re not able to fulfill your end of the commitment contract you had set with yourself.

A reverse uncle button for completed goals I think would also be useful as well.

As a user, I would want to press the “Job’s done!” button after my culminative (or otherwise) datapoints are sufficient to meet the goal criteria to archive the goal from my dashboard because it is no longer relevant.

Let’s take this one step further. How would the below user story sound?

As a user, I would want to press the, “Archive now!” button when I have more than seven days of buffer available on my goal and I want to archive my commitment contract now as the goal is no longer relevant.

Any thoughts?

  • I would find user story 1 useful.
  • I would find user story 1 and 2 useful.
  • I would find user story 2 useful.
  • I would find neither useful.

Yes! Previously, it was possible to imitate this with ratcheting, but then ratcheting was revamped several years ago, and now we just have to wait out the countdown to archiving, even if the goal just stands in the way all these days and adds visual clutter to the goals list.

Tutorial: how Nicky ends completed goals early (if there's enough buffer) can be used as well, AFAIK. Obviously this is not quite the same interface as an ‚archive now‘ button.
