Well, I guess commenting what I really think about … this … would bring this dang moderation in here. I’d say it’s just mediocre. Yeah, maybe it fits the current thing very well.

I use WebStorm, CLion, Cursor, 2-3 Claude Code instances, Chrome/Brave with 50+ tabs, Docker, and a bunch of other things on MacBook Air all at the same time. It works. Never freezes. Never crashes. I tried that on Windows recently, and now on Arch with a lot more memory (32), and it simply can't handle it. I reboot daily. Freezes in the middle of the work. It may be the issue with nvidia drivers as other pointed out, but that's precisely my point. Apple has very limited number of drivers to maintain, and they can improve them to perfection. They are not perfect, of course, but compared to alternatives, it's light-years ahead.
I don’t know for sure, I need to confirm it, but it feels like my similarly specced Arch machine would just shrug at it. It’s a 10 years old PC, yet it feels like it’s a non issue for it to handle this. I bet my MacBook Pro from 2014 (with Arch too) won’t even start a fan. It depends on these 50 tabs, I guess, but the rest is just doesn’t feel like a big deal to handle.
For me one of the biggest issues with Notion (and to a smaller extent with Obsidian as well) is its ever present UI. When I write (or read) something, I don't want to see 20+ buttons scattered around distracting me from the content.
IA writer got this right, but it's too local and doesn't have colab or better online sync features. Shameless plug – I'm building https://kraa.io/about that's trying to be a writing app with a minimal, yet feature-rich, UI. (better offline and local-files functionality planned)
Oh, I like the minimalism of your start page, before you scroll.
> deliver something you promised to deliver (not necessarily promised to others), you may want to use a set of self-hosted tools.
I don't see how one follows from the other, the vast majority of people use tools to deliver value without really caring whether they're self hosted or not
You missed ‘I guess’ in the quote, but anyway. The idea is that the parent commenter said about the intent to sell the company, and I’ve got the impression it’s a day-one intention. Like, we’re building a company to sell it. So if I’m planning to do the opposite, deliver some actual value and ideally never sell it, what should I do then? Is it self-hosting then? That’s why I’m saying ‘I guess.’ It’s an open question.
Notion for my team, Obsidian for myself.
We do everything in Notion. Book time off, HR policies, run books, playbooks, knowledge dumps, project management, sprint management. Search is a lot better so it really opens up the use cases.
Imo, if you're building a company with the goal of selling it you should use Notion. Get your team to use it, and capture everything about your business. When you go to sell it you have the whole business packaged up in a searchable, interactive knowledge base.
And if you not going to sell it from the day one, but rather deliver something you promised to deliver (not necessarily promised to others), you may want to use a set of self-hosted tools. I guess.

Yeah, thanks, I’m good. Obsidian it is then.
It's hosted in Italy, as per the DNS record. I don't think you can register .eu domain if you're not based in Europe/EU.
As I’ve stated, have no idea if that’s the case. Might have been slashdotted. Having a .eu domain and Russian host are two different separate things, as you might knew. I was talking about the latter.
Site not loading? Maybe the open web isn’t all it’s cracked up to be? /s
Might not load if you’re in Ukraine and the location of the server you’re trying to access is in Russia. Blocked on the country level. Works very well for me, I can easily distinguish someone trying to pretend they are in the EU, while being in Russia. Have no idea whether this is the case, but it does not load for me either.

For future reference, on HN you can format code snippets by indenting it (that is, to say, indenting every line) by two spaces:
# Copy-Paste re-implementation for Mac Keyboard
set $mod Mod4
bindsym --to-code $mod+z exec wtype -P XF86Undo
bindsym --to-code $mod+Shift+z exec wtype -P XF86Redo
bindsym --to-code $mod+x exec wtype -P XF86Cut
bindsym --to-code $mod+c exec wtype -P XF86Copy
bindsym --to-code $mod+v exec wtype -P XF86PasteOh, thanks, I didn’t know how to do that, and since you fixed it already, I’m going to keep it as it is, for others to know too.
