When software get this flexible I get concerned. Admittedly I have not used Notion, I've only seen people demo stuff they build and articles like this one. From this it sound like Notion is trying to reinvent Lotus Notes and that's something that should make you pause. At least it will for most of us who had to use Lotus Notes some time in the past 20 years.
- jitl 4y ago(I work at Notion) We're very aware of the legacy of Lotus Notes. There are similar concepts between Notion and Lotus Notes - especially v1-v3 of Notes that were focused on end-user programmability, before the "design" menu was removed and Notes pivoted towards a "Rapid Application Development". However, there's numerous substantial differences in our strategy and execution. For example, we host the Notion backend, avoiding a lot of the agility issues Notes had. We also aren't an email service.
