False, I for sure have realtime collaberated with people on the same doc. I thought maybe it might be on a individual block level, but then from the Notion docs https://www.notion.so/help/collaborate-within-a-workspace,

"You can edit the same block as someone else at the same time. Unlike other document software, content is not locked if someone else is making changes to it. The most recent change will be reflected on the page."



"The most recent change will be reflected on the page" implies overwriting, so different opinions may arise depending on the perspective. Anyway, Notion is addressing the shortcomings of overwriting with features like history.


yeah, that sentence does imply a last-write-wins in the case of simultaneous keystrokes. But it's at the block level and not the document level.
