I don't know how to upvote this, but FOR REAL - i have like 100 tasks today and i have to sort through every time i add new ones to determine the level of importance.
Priority, weight, anything to be able to auto sort on tasks, and visually indicate higher vs lower priority task. Could even help you schedule your day and get the smaller ones done. I know i have x meetings, and i can do x y and z done between but not the higher priority. etc.
Thank you

yes with card color coding would be amazing!

I would love to see swim lanes on the kanban board.
Currently, the kanban board covers the urgency dimension of the Eisenhower matrix. Tasks move from not urgent to urgent as days pass by. A second dimension for priority would be nice. I am thinking of swim lanes for "must", "can" and "unprioritized".
When in doing mode, I could check all the musts for today. When those tasks are finished I can decide whether to continue on urgent but not important tasks for today or rather start working on my important tasks for tomorrow already.
In my daily planning I could focus on priorizing and/or deferring unpriorized tasks first. If the workload for today is too high I, I'll find those tasks that I can defer easily in the "can" swimlane.
I think that this would reduce the time that I use for scanning through tasks.

I don't need multiple priority levels but maybe the ability to "flag" tasks to pin them to the top of views. Instead of pinning it to the top because that would break ordered prioritization, you could add a small header that says there are priority tasks in the column with the ability to jump to them or quickly open them.
Another good solution - you already have the "Filter" button at the top of views. You could add "tags" to tasks, expand on Filter to support filtering by tags, and add the option to create "Quick Filters" which display a combination of filtered channel(s) and tag(s). This solution is more flexible and allows me to create bespoke workflows that span tasks in multiple Contexts and Channels.
For example, I could create a tag for "AFK" meaning this task can be completed on my phone from anywhere. When I'm sitting in a long car ride, I can view all tasks with this tag and start tackling them.
For prioritization, I can create a tag "priority". The main difference from channels is that tags can span multiple Contexts. For now, I've created a "priority" channel under both "work" and "personal" contexts but I can't view them both at the same time. If you don't want to add tags, you could at least implement Filtering by multiple channels at once (multi-select). I still think creating "Quick Filters" is a great idea in this scenario.

I'm not a fan of priority classifications. I moved from clickup to sunsama to avoid a cluttered interface where things like priority classifications quickly became out of date without keeping on top of them all the time.
But lots of users are calling for this and I just wanted to make a small request to make it possible, if implemented, to turn priority levels or or off in the settings. That would help give more capabilities just to those who need it.

Ability to see all tasks on a priority matrix (e.g., Eisenhower) or lists (e.g., Moscow method) or Effort vs Return

This really is a must. a high priority task should be listed at the top to help organize including when rolling to the next day. It would also be good in addition to high and medium priority to also have a waiting on so an app is color coded if you are waiting on a response.

With color coding, please!

How is this not already a feature? It has been here for a long time and it has significant support. Prioritization of tasks is a common thing in most time management methodologies.

I was about to create a feature request for this! This is the biggest advantage Todoist offers over Sunama at the moment. I love the other features but being able to prioritize would be a gamechanger. Please add this!
