I am wondering what Record comments can be used for.
It looks like Record comments aren't accessible by formulas, automations interfaces, etc. That is, I can't create a formula that tells me if there are comments, that returns, the comments, etc. I can't rollup all comments of a record.
I can't write an automation that emails me when a comment is made in a record.
Is that all true — are comments really this isolated? If so, I wonder why the heck they exist — nothing in airtable seems this isolated.

You are able to show record comments & revision history on interfaces via the edit panel. It’s also an option to turn email notifications on, but could be quite a lot.Ive struggled too with best practices for this feature. I’ve worked with teams that already have communication coming in from so many channels that one more would be a headache.
I agree a formula would be awesome, or a slack bot automation.
