When you get out of control with organization even though you know it will only last a short time and soon you will have another abandoned tool sadly languishing. Exhibit: Notion workspace that initially had just Stash in it and now has become my full-blown mini-personal-Ravelry-esque repository of knitting data. #knitting#FiberArts@knitting (remove group in reply) #Notion
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 👩🏻💻
(inspired by @crumbler and his brilliant use of Notion)
I'm writing a longer (as it seems) article on the lock-in effect of solutions like #Obsidian that are using open formats like #Markdown for storage. The file format is not the only thing that might lock you in.
I did already start with a list of arguments but also want to collect your ideas so that I don't forget a good argument.
Please, no emotions, just facts and objective arguments.
Reply here in this thread and I'll collect ideas from 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!
Really impressed with how far AnyType has come in the last year. As I predicted in my article from the Alpha version, it didn't take long at all for this app to match Notion for everything I needed to organize important aspects of my life.
It still has a bit of a learning curve and some sticky areas, but it's fully functional, secure, and streamlined enough to pick up with just a few hours of practice setting up a course schedule for my classes in the Summer/Fall.
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.
Anyone can recommend personal #wiki engine / notetaking with sync that has first-class #markdown support and can be easily edited on PC (#linux, #windows) and #iphone ? I don't really want #obsidian as it requires subscription that is comparable to e.g. #notion
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.
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 #tuta or #proton.
From what i have seen we have 6 months to migrate #skiff#notion https://skiff.com
