Ronan Berder (SF + SG)(@hunvreus):Google Workspace is still the least worst options for companies. It's incredibly flexible, reliable, and better designed than Microsoft 365. But the overall experience is still pathetic: poor defaults, UI elements all over the place, friction everywhere in the UX, confusing settings, etc. Part of why I started working on https://t.co/41pDSJiIfU was to offer an alternative to Notion and Google Docs. With the upcoming version, I'll effectively have functionally a poor man's Google Drive. I'm this close to just adding email to not have to deal with this BS anymore. Just don't make me do it. I don't want to run an email service.
