The prosemirror port would make for a nice OSS library if OP is willing to put it on crates.io.

#12Another Notion-like app. But it's already many FOSS alternatives
What are they? The thing I value the most is the collaboration and the relational part, allowing to build pages that are essentially views on other data.
The only one I'm looking forward currently is the next version of Logseq which will enable collaboration on their existing block-based authoring model.

#13Loved the thought processes in this post, so definitely interested. Notion always feels half-baked.

#18This is great, I wish tech giants focused more on latency. Gmail, Notion, Facebook, are painfully slow on my high-end laptop with gigabit ethernet. Something is wrong in our modern engineering culture.

#19It certainly looks like the author has given careful thought to making this performant, but I am skeptical about it at scale. While OT means there should be fewer updates than CRDT, you still wind up with a fair amount of them, and you have to periodically rebuild the base document from accumulated steps, which can be quite large.
Assuming your backing store is Postgres, I’d experiment a lot with the various column storage strategies, at various sizes of documents and varying amounts of writes. The TOAST overhead can become a huge bottleneck.

I think the problem is a lack of "engineering culture".
Obviously not with Gmail/Facebook, in that case it's just 100% incentive misalignment.
The others, probably, VCs are incentivized to fund the people who allocate the most resources towards growth and marketing, as long as the app isn't actively on fire investors will actively push you away from allocating resources to make your tech good.
