I've taken a look at it, and it seems to have all the amenities I wanted. It seems to have most everything I was using Airtable for, but what I really like is all the rich text formatting I can do to organize knowledge.
I'll definitely consider switching. Thank you!
It is like a better looking BaseCamp + Airtable in one.
Or put differently: I think we overlook how many people might be overwhelmed with building their very own specific todo list in something like Notion or to a lesser degree Airtable, compared to a solution that provides a fixed, rigid set of fields.
I use neither of them but my preference goes to the web since I work on Linux.
The one downside compared to airtable seems to be no automatic backups. But the ability to format notes is super handy!

Except Notion is far more capable than Airtable. You can do all these table joins across pages but in Notion everything is a page whereas in Airtable it's just a form. That is the ultimate flexibility which makes it exceptionally well suited for any kind planning effort. And it's a great canvas for creative projects.
It's amazing to see that there's a billion dollar company building something comparatively so... bad.
Plus Notion has some of the best customer service around. Half the company are there for support!
