One more reason not to use Notion.
I wonder when there will be awakening to not use SaaS for everything you do. And the sad thing is that this is the behavior of supposedly tech-savvy people in places like the bay area.
I think the next wave is going to be native apps, with a single purchase model - the way things used to be. AI is going to enable devs, even indie devs, to make such products.

elaborate please?
The reason web apps and electron based apps became the de facto standard was that it removed the pain of building separately for each platform. A cost that understandably devs and companies want to avoid. Many years of this phenomenon also meant that TS/JS skills are widely available in the market but C/Swift etc. are relatively rare. LLMs completely upend this status quo as they can write in whatever language you want them to and perhaps more powerfully, can rewrite any app into whatever target language you want at effectively 0 cost/time. So a dev can decide to write in Swift for mac and ask LLMs to make a Windows version and so forth.
