What you are saying is crazy, because the entire point of using notion is the flexible databases that are infinitely extensible. If they ditch databases many users will ditch the app. There are tons of todo list and list apps there is only one notion

[lexiesanders]

I think many users chose notion in the first place thanks to that complexity and versatility to build what you want with it, to be mindful. What you explained goes in the completely opposite direction of something that requires no thinking.

Now I'm worried about thousands of items in my databases, where will they go? Will I have to move them to a different app? Should I stop adding now?

How's Databases a problem for AI ? it's literally data well organised, computers love that

As a computer science student i don't get how well defined data is bad for AI ?

Databases maybe why most people use Notion, but Notion is not exactly frictionless. I suspect one goal they may have to open the app up to more users by making it a bit more frictionless. The apps that I’ve used that have a daily notes page with and advanced back-linking fit best in my work flow because I don’t have to worry about where I put content as long as tag it or link in. Notion makes it easy to set up databases but I sometime find it as a distraction.

The argument for voice control completely misses the mark for me. Even now, I prefer to write this to you, even if I have the option to speak it. I can click through things much faster with a mouse than I could ever explain verbally. Not everyone likes to speak. The only alternative would be Neuralink, where I could do things with my thoughts.

Actually lack of Home made me confused thus I didn't use it often. Now I might use it more frequently. Home is not showing on my account though.

[PrzemekKocur]

Can you show us how Home looks on mobile, please?

Databases are by far my favourite feature in Notion and the reason why I love it so much. 😍 I like to customize my notion and my databases and like the complexity and flexibility. (If you want a kind of Evernote, just use that. 😉)

[marcelospaiva]

Why my Notion home page is not available?. I had a second and unused workplace, that as soon I logged in, the notion home appeared. Why the homepage in my main workplace is not showing up?

[jawjuh]

Soo in other words Notion is becoming Evernote. 😂

I personally don't like how notion is loosing their "do whatever you want" system. The last features are so specific instead to give the ability to the user to build it on their own way. For this home page would have been more interesting if they would provide a widget block, "elegant list view" block or anything that allows us to build our own home page instead of just creating a defined page. This is a limitation in personalization and flexibilty terms, which it seems to me was the goal for the first versions of Notion.

However, this could be something they plan to do later and it is just a segmented test so far. Who knows.

love the evolution of keep productive! keep productive yall ⭐⭐

[gosparkle]

This is an amazing tutorial :) Thanks so much!

youre right, notion is very flexible in terms of what it offers, thats why its so popular, so going in this direction creates huge limitations. As someone who is a heavy user of AI, I personally do not like the feel of this at all. I feel AI can easily be implimented in a way that doesnt heavily restrict the versatility of Notion, by making the user have to define things within their database which is alreaady possible by ading descriptions to databases and properties Looks like its turning into a Task management program. You can make a program support task management without limiting it. So it all opperates around the assumption that i have my tasks spread throughout multiple databases? which i feel like most people who use notion have a singular task database and use the property features to distinguish the context of the tasks. It just seems so limiting for them to impliment this by giving options to turn a database into a 'task' database. Notion has always given you tools and allowed you to have free reign on the context you use those tools in, why is this tool shoved into a specific context? It should be a general extension of the database feature, period. The argument that they have to decide the context of how we use a database for it to be utilized by AI is bs, and im not excited about the direction notion is moving in, they are doing themselves an injustice

I haven't got the update yet, is that normal? When will I get it? I wanna tryyy😞

[iamthisiam]

I want it! When does it come out for everyone?

[MuralidharanJayaram]

I totally agree. AI is a game changer in all areas of our lives, especially Productivity. Francesco, you are truly a Productivity Futurist!

[TeacherCast]

Help me understand this one ... We all love our custom Notion Dashboards ... it's how everyone is creating a community. Is Notion Home not set up to destroy this concept?

[nthanharding]

Love the look of this…. BUT what is the “Inbox” in the sidebar (on the official Notion video)? Skiff integration? Renamed “Updates” section?

[saralynnech]

I don't think databases are going to go away. They'll just have a shiny new UI! I love where Notion is going. Every day I find about five cool new things that blow me away - you can do all of the artificial intelligence things you are talking about right now online for free - it's early days, but they're learning very fast and making exponential gains in ability. Everything is so disorganized, though. I am working on Notion organizing my day right now with the help of a few different AIs. I feel like I'm living in a SciFi book some days. =) I can't wait for Notion whiteboard, that is one of the few things I still have to do outside of Notion. Just found your channel and am really liking your content. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and insight. 💚☀
