Ask HN: What would you change about Notion?

What would you improve on Notion you could? My personal one is the interface and file management with privacy based setup.



There is so much empty space. I assume this is because it's built on blocks but it's the exact opposite of clutter and equally as unattractive. I have said before that the overall design was copied from what a four year-old designs when given a 4ft by 6ft white canvas and a box of crayons.


Yeah the box design is a problem. I think it could be better UI wise and in terms of collaboration I think it can be a little more lively too. Rn it’s sorta you add them and only see updates as it happens but I think it should be live. And file management is ugh. Privacy is nonexistent


i want to be able to open pages in new tab


What do you mean? On Notion the tabs open up in the same browser as far as I’m aware because it makes more sense. Do you mean like moving between pages— so can add a new page easily and jump back and forth between them.
