Alright...this looks great.
One question though, if it's electron based why in the world isn't there a Linux Desktop client?

#62I am uncomfortable to put all personal thoughts, diaries, etc into a non-self-hosting place.
Can they dockerize this and sell that so I can self-host the docker image instead?
for people that is not tech-savvy, what about they buy a docker-container-hosted-by-the-vendor-company but can encrypt the contents in a way that nobody else can peek into the content ever?

#63This is really, really awesome and has the crucial features I require out of a notes app, including pasting images from the system clipboard and a deep hierarchy of pages/folders.
Sadly, I just poured hours of time into putting all my stuff from OneNote into a self-hosted instance of BookStack. However, I like the looks of Notion so much, I am probably going to have to move again!

#64This seems like a great tool. What's the security model for this? I get that it's offline first with sync capabilities, but is notion hosting any of this content to facilitate syncing and if so is it encryped etc? Is there an easy way to export all of my content?

#65Does anyone use this with their spouse / significant other? Seems like a great tool to have shared docs, lists, todos, etc. I'm thinking things like house and car maintenance, financial planning, shopping lists, and all the other things that I normally keep in a combination of Google Docs and Apple Notes.
yes! we did start using it and loved it, until we realized needing to pay $20/month for it -- which was a bit out of our current budget.
I pay for one personal account and then just share a page with my spouse and then she can put anything she wants in it, including creating subpages. It works great for us.

#66Looks nice. Are we getting away from the term "ERP" by the way?

#67This isn't self-hosted? I'm interested in a self-hosted solution that uses local markdown files and directories to manage content.
But they're trying to run a business, so why ask the question as if it's surprising?
Business is not synonymous with 'subscription model.' It's good for people to express their desire for on-prem, one-time payment products. Maybe the market can find a middle rather than the utter domination of subscription services.

#68Like Notion a lot and we looked at a number of the modern wiki tools (cloud based).
vs Confluence it is much faster. We did end up with Confluence, but that wasn't my first choice.
vs Samepage it just felt a lot more modern. That might be harsh, but we only had a limited time to eval all the options.
vs Quip, well, it's Salesforce. The sales was spammy and you just know how hard the sale will be if you've ever used the core SF products.
Best OS with a combo of Bookstackapp and a ticket system that I forget the name of now. No integration between the two, and no support.
The reason it lost in the end was it was the only one that didn't have draw.io integrated and we do a lot of diagramming. But, as I say, really nice and I would have preferred it to Confluence.

#69Not sure how this product (if it's new) isn't running afoul on Presonus' trademarks for "Notion". https://www.presonus.com/products/Notion Presonus' product is for music but it is a software product, it is trademarked, and it is older than this one AFAICT.
Trademarks only protect against competition in the same category, or where consumer confusion is possible. They may both be "software products" (what isn't, these days?), but these products seem sufficiently removed from each other -- one a music authoring tool, the other a notes and project collaboration tool -- that I don't think trademark protection would apply.

That sounds like a good feature - I think the app is trying to replace current jira etc functionality for now, is that something that Jira and other offer?
