I've been using Notion databases as a project/task tracker for Grok Bot and it just like, works really well...ezmode.

Built a little agent automation where I paste a link to a cool website I want to save: → checks for duplicates in my notion db → extracts metadata (favicon, x handle, title) → ai classifies as personal site or company/product → pings a small endpoint to capture light and dark mode screenshots → adds the site + all details to my notion db → purges the cache on my /sites page → replies with a tweet draft (in case I want to share) It's probably slightly inefficient compared to making this fully deterministic, but I like having an agent take care of it because I can say things like: - oh, that site you captured has a weird loading state, recapture after waiting 3 seconds - review all sites I've saved in the notion db and see if we accidentally captured loading states/403 errors and re-process Yesterday I tried to save a link that 403d so I had my agent wire up a rotating residential proxy to get around it. Look ma no hands! →

I've been keeping a daily journal for the past ~10 years. Last year I moved everything into Notion. This year I've been steadily adding enrichment automations to fill in a daily recap with meetings from that day, people I met with, highlights from work, and things I read (syncing data from all my main apps). Everything connects nicely with other stuff in my Notion workspace, too. For example, if the automation sees I met with someone new that day, it adds them to my People database + kicks off an enrichment process to pull an avatar, website, x/linkedin/github profiles, etc. — like a little self-populating contacts list. Together, this adds a lot of texture to every journal entry + adds cues for me to journal about by hand. Anyways: connected tools + automations + a great writing surface are pretty great, highly recommend.

Notion feels bloated these days, Obsidian is great but I don't have time for all the configuration/extensions. Been loving the latest from @craftdocs - less complexity but native BYO AI keys + mcp support.

I have a draft blog post swirling around this exact topic (but not refined enough to publish yet). I think the key thing is I (personally) don't want a NEW GitHub. I want GitHub to be better. For example: - GitHub issues should be as beautiful and good as Linear - GitHub PRs should be as good as Graphite - GitHub Git infra should be as fast/minimal as Pierre - GitHub wikis should be more like Notion - GitHub discussions & shouldn't exist (multiple "better issue" providers including Linear show why) - etc. I'm not saying to clone those full companies outright, but their core product, arguably the core features, aren't even 2% as good as those external products. Maybe aim for 10% to start. There's the "oh no there's so much tech debt" argument. And I'm sure GH is on an absolutely mountain of tech debt. That's why in my prior twoots I've argued to just make them separate products to start only for agility reasons, unapologetically do not integrate with "old github." Net net startups beat encumbants all the time for reasons. That's just a product/technical POV though. GitHub also has a huge PR/marketing problem. They talk through corp speak, their marketing pages (e.g. the dot com) speaks to multiple personas confusingly, they have no singular visionary to look up or trust, they have nobody who makes the outward community feel seen. There's so much more here... I think for the human side, GitHub already has what it needs to be really, really, really good. It really feels like they just like fearless vision, and the courage/power to say "fuck you" to a whole lot of things that are distracting them.
