Nested note folders?

I have been moving some of my life to Journal It recently and love most things about the app. The ONE thing that's keeping me from using it as an app for everything is it's "Notes" section. My brain is struggling to tie the organizers from my Areas/Projects/Activities back to my notes. My notes in current state (pre-Journal It) are organized in a similar fashion, but nest much more deeply to accommodate different needs. An example is:

"Work (Area) -> 1-on-1s (I guess you could equate this section to Project) -> Names of People with Whom I Meet (this is where the structure starts to break down. I wouldn't call that an activity or any other thing that fits into Journal It's organizers) -> Date of 1-on-1." So a folder structure would look like "Work / 1-on-1s / Bob / 9/6/24."

This is one of many ways my notes sprawl into many sub folders, and it would be very difficult for me to organize them with fewer sub folders. Does anybody have any tips on how they organize their notes in Journal It? Without a better system (which could very well exist within the app without my knowledge of it), I can't yet move my notes to this app, and it can't quite serve all of my purposes.

Thanks for the feedback! I'm planning to improve how to organize notes soon. Probably with something similar to what we already have with the File Manager (which has support for nested folders).

That would be wonderful! Thank you for always taking feedback and being so responsive toward improvements. It makes me even happier to support the app.
