Roam’s product people sprinted to the 100m line with what they built at the start, but then Notion’s product people ambled past them and went on to run a full marathon.

Roam also took absurdly long to finish loading, long enough to lose my train of thought and get angry at Roam instead of writing down what I wanted to write down. I would write it in Sublime Text while Roam loaded, then paste it in. Then wonder why I was bothering with Roam when I could’ve already saved a text file with my note, to a directory somewhere.

Do you think Roam’s team fixed the performance problems? Ha.
