IMO you should disclose (and it is a disclosure, not a disclaimer) your employer at the top, because it makes the rest of your comment something nearer to marketing copy than user review.

EDIT: Check OPs history, he asked this exact same question 46 days ago!

Ive never heard of this startup before, now they're all over this thread. Do you reckon they made this whole thread for marketing purposes? OP is a pretty anonymous user.

I already dislike them now & hopefully never have to use them. Someone else posted Tiddlywiki which is an amazing open-source program, suggest everyone at least check it out. It changed my life. I obviously have no stake in it, so why doubt me? No disclaimer necessary.

I don't think so, in that submission (which got much less attention) the only mention of Notion is OP doubting that it's more than hip design.

Tiddly Wiki is indeed awesome. There is one few feature I would like (export to a graph database), and the wiki syntax is something annoying to use but overall this is genious level idea and great execution.

They've been around for a few years, and really are a pretty good collaborative tool with a lot of possible workflows and use-cases.

I've seen Notion mentioned often on HN, and after giving it a try I'd recommend to at least look into it to see for yourself.

I agree: this trick of saying that you are using Notion as a source of truth when you work at Notion had left a bitter aftertaste, on a product I should love overwise.

Sorry about that. I edited to add the disclosure at the top as well.

Sorry about that! I added a disclosure to the top along with a bit more personal perspective.
