I moved my team of 6 people to Notion when the company stopped paying for Dropbox Paper and moved to Google Docs. I'm a little taken aback by the tone:

> I am an unfortunate user of Notion. I have to use it in my day to day job because it is the tool of my company choice. I suffer every time I'm doing anything in it.

I put a good bit of time looking at alternatives to paper that allowed for concurrent editing by multiple people, rich support for technical documentation/code snipits, good tables, fast, etc.

Notion isn't perfect, but after going through a dozen offerings it came out far and ahead of all others, especially when you factored in its price. Over the last year they've also really moved ahead with new features, etc. We've moved all our docs and project tracking over to it and now we're fortunately off next-gen Jira.

We're a very technical team, and we share our docs rw to the whole company. Out of all the tools we use, I found this one pretty pleasurable to use to be honest.

Same. I don’t have a particular dog in this fight, though I have been playing with Notion, but the idea you came from Confluence and are upset by the UX of Notion is confusing to me.

I still don’t understand when which versions of half ass Markdown work when as I swap between Jira ticket bodies, Jira comments and Confluence.

Confluence...I hate you so, it’s just not a competing experience product. But some people _really_ like it. Shrug.
