The right column of the expanded view where the revision history and comments are shown needs some UX improvements. Currently I feel I cannot invite clients of ours to use the comments as means of communication, because this view is far too cluttered with irrelevant information of rev. history.
It’d be great if I was able to only see comments, next to each other. Even better would be if I could actively toggle on to see the revision history. In my context, comments are far more useful than the rev. history.

Agree:

  1. separate comments list
  2. separate revisions list
  3. there’s probably a use case for combined, so a combined list of revisions and comments together.

You may not have noticed that you can turn off the display of revision history in any app:

This doesn’t stop Airtable recording it but does make commenting much more useful.
