When Updated since Can Be Better Than Visited-Since

While for most use cases we expect visited-since commands to be the preferred time-based search filter (see why), there are times when updated-since commands such as:

• Quick Search, Updated Since
• Quick Search, In Subtree, Updated Since

can be better suited for your search needs. The main use case is when you're sharing a vault with other people and want to search according to updates that others have made. In such cases, you haven't visited the notes they modified, so your Visit History won't reflect their visits. However, note modifications are always shared. Therefore, updated-since commands are more useful for discovering others' interactions with the notes.

If you're NOT sharing the vault or simply want to focus on your own note interactions, then visited-since commands such as:

• Quick Search, Visited Since
• Quick Search, In Subtree, Visited Since

will be more useful to you.
