Neat! Is the 'import from notion' functionality able to convert Notion databases to this?

You can import all the underlying data from Notion using the Obsidian Importer plugin, however I believe that Notion's Databases export only includes a CSV. So you'll need to recreate the views to be able to interact with them dynamically.

I see. I just tried the Notion import on the latest version of Anytype, and they now seem to be able to import Notion databases, which is useful.

They use the Notion API though, not any export option that Notion offers.

I want to build a fully round-tripable semantic HTML “microformat” for Notion data so both backup and take-out workflows can depend just on exports, but right now I’m too focused on scaling offline mode to work on it. Sigh. The first version of the HTML/PDF exporter I built as part of my interview process in 2019, I think we could do a much better job
