I've been using Augment lately in dbt, PHP, and Typescript codebases, and it has been producing production-level code, it has been creating (and running!) tests automatically, and always goes through multiple levels of review before merge.
Posts like these will always be influenced by the author's experience with specific tools, in addition to what languages they use (as I can imagine lesser-used languages/frameworks will have less training material, thus lower quality output), as well as the choice of LLM that powers it behind the scenes.
I think it is a 'your mileage may vary' situation.

Skype is still alive!?
Back in the day my entire extended family used it to connect with each other across the globe. But today? I don't know a single person, old or young, that still uses it!
I use it every month for book club meetings, just for convenience, it’s easy to use and hasn’t changed much in years and years

Ibis is a hotel chain, not the best name to pick in my opinion
I had the same issue described in the article... how do you choose a community?
It was the first question I had when looking into Mastodon, and a few minutes in I closed the tabs.
I don't want to choose a community, I want a single place/domain I rely on, I don't care if the backend is decentralised, I want the entry as a new user to be as low as possible, I need to understand the product in a few sentences.
They lost me as a potential user, I wonder how many more they lost. That entry barrier (just as with UX / registration forms) has to be as low as possible.

I've extensively used both. The problem I have concerns this part:
> I assume that in the next 5 years something better than Obsidian will come out though the idea is that is really doesn't matter in the end because the data stays the same.
Something better already is out, and the data has already changed. A ton of the power of Notion is in the structured formatting of note metadata; Notion calls them Databases. This is the core of a lot of the produtivity-hacking snake-oil that these YouTube videos sell, but there is something to it. Markdown doesn't have a correlate. Nothing even close. You physically cannot represent in markdown what is possible in some of these Notion documents.
Indeed, as long as we can export data I wouldn't mind too much. Worst case you can write your own tool to represent the data in a visual format you desire. I think the columnar structure of Notion (which collapses on mobile) is quite neat.
The only thing I'm scared of is I've started writing a book (in Notion), and it would be a shame if something happens to it due to unrecoverable data loss...

Absolutely love Notion for the aspects mentioned in the article; I love how I can cluster everything together (work, life, etc.)
From short term planning (templates for my week which I copy every Sunday to start a fresh week - these templates are a 7 day todo list (in columns) with a link to my main calendar, project 'kanban' boards, and a linked "general todo" list for things that don't fit in the week and keep dragging on)
After being addicted to scheduling everything in a calendar (for about 5-6 years), and having to drag items I didn't complete to the next day every single day, working with templates (and linked lists / embedded sections) in Notion is really a game changer. I've tried many other to-do tools (like Wunderlist which I loved before it came Microsoft To-Do, which I still gave a chance but had too many bugs).
Notion is just a game changer plain and simple, I hope they never break it, this is the only tool I have come to love and trust to keep my entire life in.

This is nostalgic, I spent countless hours in MPT as a kid. I moved on to sequencers around 10 years ago, but I remember trackers fondly, making music felt a bit like coding.
