I guess I greatly underestimated what Notion was -- I thought it was mostly a note-taking tool ("Evernote 2.0"), but Appflowy (and a visit to the Notion site again) makes it seem like a project management tool + wiki?
Notion is essentialy JIRA + Confluence + OneNote wrapped up in one (not implying anything about the quality of the products just their competencies)?
[EDIT] - A possibly disturbing/pleasing thought -- is Notion Chat on the horizon?
I had the same idea about Notion before, and after using it the best way I have to describe is that it is a database manager, and what can it do is up to you. You can use it for simple note taking (and it does have nice features for that), but also add databases in certain formats, with properties, links between them, run "queries", add reminders... In a sense, it's like coding a (very) basic application without coding. Pretty helpful, for example I use it for managing recipes and shopping lists automatically (among other things).
Yes. It can be any of those, all of those, or none of those, and it's all organized in a hierarchical manner like a folder tree with emojis being the new way of identifying and codifying documents.
I'd surmise that if you tried you get so far away from what email was meant to support it would have been a better idea to create something new anyway.
Appreciate the comment -- yeah the fact that comments are already in there and maybe people might want to chat live without switching to another app made me think it might be a thing.
Maybe slack/mattermost/etc integrations will be good enough forever
