Been a happy cron user for 2 years now. Here's the real improvements as I see them 1. You get a push notification that includes a join button 1 minute before your meetings 2. You always have a heads up to how long to your next meeting, or how long left in your current meeting 3. I can schedule/find time with coworkers in 2 clicks 4. I can see my coworkers timezones 5. I can replace calendly for sharing my availability. But none of them have to do with Notion so far.

Your comment convinced me to try Notion’s calendar but then when I went to add calendars, I’m only able to use a Google account, bummer. I have a Fastmail and an iCloud calendar which I’m guessing will come later to Notion.

> You get a push notification that includes a join button 1 minute before your meetings Why this still isn't an option in every calendar application in 2024 is beyond me. My current Outlook is at least better than whatever I had before: Now I can at least choose a reminder 5 minutes before something start instead of only increments from $NOW.

I’m a long time Cron user but didn’t know it had Calendly functionality. How do you share availability?

  I think it's only the "Share availability" functionality. You can drag times you are available, then it copies text to your clipboard like this, plus a booking link: Would 30 min during any of these times (all in PST) work for you? - Tomorrow Thu Jan 18, 3-5:45 PM - Fri Jan 19, 12:15-5:45 PM - Sat Jan 20, 8 AM - 5:45 PM You can just let me know or confirm here: [link] What's nice is that you can also change the time zone so the other person sees the suggestions in their time zone. I don't think you can just do a generic scheduling link like Calendly, you have to pick the times first.
