Notion is too much for me, what do people actually use instead
by•
Ok so everyone on here loves notion and i get why, it can do literally everything.
but every time i open it i end up spending 40 min messing with templates and zero minutes actually writing anything down.
i just want somewhere to dump random notes and to dos without having to design a whole system first. anyone found something simpler that still feels like it has some structure? or did you just eventually figure notion out and now it clicks.

Notion can be overwhelming at first.
The best thing to do is to keep it simple and just get started.
If your main purpose is to have a place to take notes, just create a simple notes database with a few columns like: category (single select), favorite (checkbox).
You can always expand things if you need to later one.
