I use Notion to maintain a personal knowledge-base (which it works great for). I also maintain a newsletter, embedded into the knowledge-base, that links directly into a lot of the knowledge-base pages for when I need to reference things (which it works not so great for).
Are there plans to introduce some sort of Notion-Brick interop/synchronisation system? I'd love to use the Brick styling and custom domain features, but would like to keep Notion as my source of truth.
We prioritize feature requests from paying customers, so buying the $20/year plan is a good way to get MathJax significantly faster.
No, only after a page refresh.
I think we won't have automatic page refresh because it gets complicated if the author e.g. decides to add a JS script to the page. But maybe not! Or maybe we'll add it for 99% of the users who don't embed JS into their pages.

Which is pretty much what would happen with a static site, no? Edit, save, refresh, visible. Because even I've done that.
(BTW I fully respect your JS orientation but as someone who's going to have to start a blog soon but without JS I won't be able to use your stuff).
Without the "save" step. This is I meant by saying "instant".
Roam also doesn't let you have several workspaces/databases, I think.
In my experience, I actually /want/ different things in my life (notes, diaries, public writing, etc) to be in different places. I even have several note-taking apps for different contexts, even though the feature sets are very similar.
I know that for some people, being able to have EVERYTHING in one place is an awesome feature. But for me and possibly others, it's the opposite.
You can have multiple workspaces now too but they've started charging for that I believe.
It works like Notion as in "all your edits are instantly visible" — from experience, this feels very different from blogging on Wordpress or making a static site in a git repo.
I love static sites but I'm not going back to them. I can experiment much more easily with Brick.
You can do something similar with Notion, but Notion is aimed at management or personal knowledge-bases, and it shows. We have a different focus. E.g. Notion is unlikely to ever have email subscriptions or ways to let people pay for your writing, while we very well might in the future. Notion also doesn't support custom domains out of the box, or custom CSS.
Try it out! Brick is free and has no ads. The only thing is that you need a premium plan (less than $2/mo) for custom domains.
