> Fast is relative

I once used Notion at work and for personal note taking. I'd never felt it was "slow." Until later I moved my notes to Obsidian. Now when I have to use Notion at my job it feels sluggish.

Notion just seems to get worse and worse. I used to love it but now I find it infuriatingly slow.

Glad to hear Obsidian is better as I’ve been considering it as an alternative.

  • Obsidian's local first editing experience makes a huge difference to creativity and flow.

    I've been working on making Obsidian real-time collaborative with the Relay [0] plugin. In combination with a few other plugins (and the core Bases plugin) you can build a pretty great Notion alternative.

    I'm bullish on companies using Obsidian for knowledge management and AI driven workflows. It's pretty reasonable to build custom plugins for a specific vertical.
