I've recently picked up Notion and I like it a lot. I looked into Roam but for $15 per month and with a lot of performance issues, I think I'll pass for now. I'm hoping they work out the quirks because the idea of being able to quickly link different concepts together is pretty neat. Fortunately Notion has backlinks which work for most of my needs and the blocks look nicer.

I used Notion for a while, but found the UI just a little tpp sluggish. And I personally value native apps for tools like this, and Notion's Electron based apps were quite large and slow, sadly.

I love what they're doing, I understand why they picked the tech stack and architecture they did, and they have some really awesome features! ....but it's just too slow for me. (Then again, I'm picky.)

Same experience... There's a lot to like about notion and I chose it over everything else and am using it professionally and personally. But the sluggishness is really starting to bother me

Tried Notion for a while, but it just does too much in my opion, it gives me too many choices. I could spend hours trying to get the perfect home screen and arrange pages into a perfect order. But that's all I did. I spent more time worrying about getting the right structure than actually taking the notes.
