start switching workflow from Notion to Airtable + Docs 🙊
For me, Notion is really great for general organization, simple wikis (if you have a team), some kanban-type stuff, and lighter table/spreadsheet use. But it isn't so good for writing, nor is it great for big databases (tables load pretty slowly if you have a lot of rows, and you can't create relations between tables in the way Airtable lets you).
Airtable is just a powerhouse. And it makes the most sense for me because 1. for some reason the UI just feels more clean and clear to me as opposed to Notion's, and 2. I created a writing workflow that really only works with Airtable. Airtable also has some other features that work really well for me, like CSV import and De-dupe "blocks" (useful if you're working with tables full of keywords).
At the end of the day Airtable + Google Docs (where I actually do my writing, and then simply link to that doc in a corresponding Airtable entry) feels better to me. It's more straightforward. I think Notion can be good if you're trying to find a workflow, or like organizing in a very visual way, all in one place….but I don't know - Airtable just feels more efficient.
