This product looks awesome and the mobile app looks exceptional. But if it’s not self-hosted and in some kind of standard format,you’re SOL when the company shuts down. Even though you can export your data, where are you supposed import it to?

Here are some possible alternatives: https://selfh.st/alternatives/notion/

Trust me, I do understand all that. My personal set of trade-offs is such that I really can't be bothered with self-hosting.

Capacities has one-click export of all of your objects (notes/pages) with a sensible folder structure that produces markdown with frontmatter and includes all media attachments. That's good enough for me.
