I wish I could use #Notion effectively, but I spend too much time making everything look pretty and not enough time actually using it

My notes in #notion are slowly growing while preparing for the #cpacc exam using the #deque preparation course.

While I assume that the little quizzes don't represent the questions in the exam, they give me somewhat of an indication where I'm at.

Pretty much all of them were easy, but once they're gonna ask me for statistic numbers, I might be screwed.

@stvfrnzl I did that exam recently. Don’t know whether I’ve passed yet. There were very few questions about statistics and many more than expected about “Universal Design for Learning”.

The deque stuff is good prep, but you should also check out the cpacc body of knowledge document. https://www.accessibilityassociation.org/resource/IAAP_CPACC_BOK_March2020

@flori Thanks, I appreciate the hint! Would be great to know the results once you get them. 🤗

Geeky action du jour: importing #TheRealists blog posts into a #Notion database — so that I can potentially get interesting insights thanks to its new Q&A feature 👩🏻‍💻

I wrote about how I used @eleventy's fetch AssetCache feature to query and store data from an #API like #Notion or the #PlayStation Network (for my Now and Gaming Library pages), abstracting it all into reusable code. Maybe somebody else out there could benefit from such a write up, so I wrote it: https://chriskirknielsen.com/blog/leverage-api-like-notion-with-cache/

#Neurodivergent #Notion tip - don't overcomplicate it.

It's super common with Notion newbies to make a really complex system, maybe using several different templates, that seems great because it includes literally everything.

Trust me when I tell you, you don't actually need everything!

Start small and simple - it can be as simple as a blank page with a check list on it!

@alexisbushnell as simple and effective as it should be

The year is 2024 & Notion still doesn't have (full) offline support. Wild, indeed.

SENTINELITE,
@SENTINELITE@moth.social avatar

@RobW Yeah. The templates & “Systems" they have, seem really neat. I made an account at the start of this year & haven't touched it since.

It's just too slow. Craft/Bear kinda spoiled me. 😅

@SENTINELITE I found it got in the way by trying to be helpful all the time. Give me plain text any time!

I don't think I can ever leave #notion until other note taking apps have similar reminder functions.

cringe,
@cringe@social.tchncs.de avatar

@sharan that's one thing I'm not using as much, probably because I'm not sure about future migration to other applications... 🤔 What's your top use-case for databases?

sharan,
@sharan@metalhead.club avatar

@cringe Nothing special, I use them for categorization, archiving and easy searchability with properties.

Ich wurde in den letzten Monaten zu #Notion gezwungen.

Meine bisherige #Meinung dazu: unbenutzbar

Ash_Crow,
@Ash_Crow@mastodon.social avatar

A couple years back, I wanted to make a list of the works by the #SeizBreur artistic movement (the "Breton art-déco")

I couldn't do this on #WikimediaCommons/#Wikidata of course, as most of the works are still under copyright, so I tried to make it with #Notion and while it works and looks nice, it needs some tedious repeated work, and has a lot of limitations in terms of what I can do with the data.

@Ash_Crow@mastodon.social avatar

@Monolecte j'en viens à me demander s'il n'y aurait pas moyen de faire un truc qui convertirait le dockerfile en série d'instructions pour l'installation lisibles par un humain.

Je veux dire, je comprends le besoin des devs de Baserow de fournir un redis et un postgre qui juste marchent, mais j'ai déjà ça sur ma machine, j'ai pas besoin de les faire tourner en double dans Docker.

@Ash_Crow

Ce serait bien.
J’avais ds appli que maintenais à jour en git et paf, ils arrêtent de maintenir pour ne puls passer que sur docker, c’est très chiant et faignant.

Même merde que les flatpack et les snap.

I see #Notion now allows "Search engine indexing" on free accounts. Used to be a paid accounts only feature. Is this .. unshittification .. ???

@phocks i don't need it, but sounds like an useful feature.

OH MAIS LE SCANDALE 😡

En fait le coup de l'IA dans notion ne marche pas : l'IA invente un compte fantaisiste des caractères dans la page, j'ai eu entre 6400 et 12000 et des, pour un texte où je n'avais pas changé UNE VIRGULE entre les updates ! elle ne compte pas elle fait semblant et bullshite oO.

et bien sûr au bout d'une vingtaine d'essais, faut payer 🙄

mais pourquoi je vais payer ce truc qui raconte n'imp exactement ???

I bashed Notion without ever trying it. Now I’ve tried it (for one day).

I can see how it could appeal to people. I’m not sure what came first but there’s some similarities to other apps I have used.
The calendar integration Notion Calendar (Cron) is particularly good.

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@CodeMacLife I had never used Notion until Nova Launcher got acquired by Branch. Branch uses Notion exclusively so I've had to use it for that.

It's quite powerful and integrates with a lot of different things which makes life easier in the work space.

I'd assume there are different, and possibly better, but Notion is simple enough to use and good enough for me what little I need to use it.

This is pretty wild, because clearly started as a competitor (and I evaluated it as a replacement to use at ), and now they sold to Notion and will shut down.

Are there any well-designed, preferably free or one-time payment, alternatives to Craft?

The main feature I use is adding pages to paragraphs. See video for example

It would also be great if there was an iOS app as well

I tried Obsidian, Joplin (didn’t like the design of either) and Anytype (WAY too unintuitive). I’m not sure if I should try

Another amazing bonus feature (but I’m not hung up on it) would be a way to add notes to calendar events. Same with it

@teon Oh, that’s cool! I haven’t heard of them before.

Would it be okay if I asked you for a few pictures of your setup? They don’t really have any on the website as far as I can tell

@davidbures@mstdn.social avatar

@BrendanThompson I used Bear a few years ago (around three years ago, I’d say). It was a nice experience, maybe I’ll check them out again.

Do you know if there were any big updates in the last couple years that I might have missed?

Looks like , the hot note-taking outfit that charges for significant use, has acqui-hired , the private service that gave most of it away for : https://www.notion.so/blog/meet-skiff-the-newest-member-of-the-notion-family

Skiff got bought up by Notion.
This means that all skiff users need to find a new platform.
Notion does not even offer an email service, so we just lost a big player in the privacy community, very sad that they made this decision. I have considered switching to something like or .
From what i have seen we have 6 months to migrate

blackwolf,
@blackwolf@meow.social avatar

I am considering services like or but i'll wait a few days or weeks and see what others come up with and test out a few services.
I will post which service i went with afterwards.
For the meantime i am curious what you are using. Feel free to reply down below what your email provider is and why you are using it

@blackwolf I’ve paid for #ProtonMail since their #IndieGoGo campaign precisely because they’re user-funded and not giving away the store: https://social.sdf.org/@mjgardner/111907965739904929

themandalorian,

Not sure I'm thrilled with #notion buying out #skiff. I've really liked Skiff as an alternative to #protonmail.

Recently I spent some time in Notion building up a board game database that is going to help us on a project.

Each item in the database is packed with properties and will reveal any references coming from other databases in our workspace.

For each, We can add game-specific notes, and refer to them later with ease :)

Alongside this, is a video database that will help us create new content, with a heavy use of templates so we can plan and maintain a consistent feel.

Hejo!
Właśnie zaczynam przenosiny z na . Mam jednak pewne pytanie do osób korzystających z tej drugiej aplikacji. Czy jest możliwość, żeby tworzyć tabele powiązane w Obsidianie? Chodzi o to, że chcę w jakiś prosty sposób monitorować finanse i wyświetlać w jednej tabeli informacje na jeden temat, w drugiej na drugi i potem je zsumować.

@DrTCombs@transportation.social avatar

Hey..where are my using friends?

I've run into a real problem: content in various projects is swapping places (and sometimes disappearing) as I'm using it. Previous versions don't have it right.

I'm baffled (and a little desperate).

DrTCombs,
@DrTCombs@transportation.social avatar

@szeis4cookie well now.
I did not mean to do just what you describe, but I accidentally did thanks to a drop down that listed blocks from a different project than the one I was working in.

DrTCombs,
@DrTCombs@transportation.social avatar

I found my missing content, hiding in trash (where I definitely did NOT put it). When I restored one, they all came back.

rivetgeek,
@rivetgeek@dice.camp avatar

I've decided to go with for organization and notes for the game I'm planning. I went with it over because Notion is less hassle to sync and work with between my tablet and my laptop. I'm still using Obsidian for things where it's fine for it to live only on my laptop.

rivetgeek,
@rivetgeek@dice.camp avatar

@glitchontwitch And I just realized I rolled up several issues I have with the tablet that aren't necessarily just Obsidian. So I'll leave it that Notion avoids more than one problem.

rivetgeek,
@rivetgeek@dice.camp avatar

@gluesticks Yup, that's the first thing I started doing...setting up tables for various elements.

@toran@pkm.social avatar

Decided to give #Notion another go, though mostly as my online knowledge base (I have a student account). I won't, however, be using it for anything [too] personal or sensitive, due to their security issues.

#PKM #productivity

toran,
@toran@pkm.social avatar

@dhrystone I have, along with #AppFlowy and #Zettlr. I just like exploring different apps and coming back to old ones to see how they've changed. 🙂

dhrystone,
@dhrystone@techhub.social avatar

@toran Yep. That’s my life too..

Don’t expect too much from Notion though. It’ll never change.
