Anyone use Notion?
Anyone here use Notion? Wondering if I could combine it with Logos in some way. (Wish Logos had all this stuff too ha!)

I use Notion... It is a great program but for now I am just using it to take notes. I am planning to incorporate a sermon database/calendar into it in the future. I love the combination of note taking and relational database functionality.
I agree that I would love to replace Logos Sermon Editor and Notes with Notion. It would be great if Logos scrapped their notes and Sermon Editor and just used notion. I think most Logosians would be dancing in the aisles with the improved functionality. It would give DAL the super-powered Sermon Editor he is craving! Realistically its not going to happen.

How do you take notes in Notion? Do you just open a new tab and type or are you using an extension or app like "notion saver"?

Any chance you've gotten the replace with passage service to work in Notion? It seems to work sometimes, and other times it doesn't.

Most, perhaps, but not all. Some of us have memories of bad experiences of third-party software integration. And lack of integration would be even worse.
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

Instead of integrating directly with external software X I'd rather Logos provide an interface for interacting with the software programmatically. Then the community could develop integrations with whatever software they wish. Personally I don't use Notion, I use a combination of Obsidian.md and Emacs Org-Mode for my note-taking, so direct integration would be bothersome, but given the ability to integrate with the software on our own I'd be likely to develop plugins to integrate with my current note system.
At the very least, I would love to see Logos provide notes in a plaintext format for external use.

@Adam Mertzenich I agree with your point. The community could be very helpful in developing integrations. What would Logos need to change to make this happen? Are we talking something like an open API?
@ReformedPilgrim I am working on converting to Notion from a variety of notetaking apps. I love a lot about it, and I am also interested in how I could combine it with Logos! I take all my Bible study notes in Logos Notes, but it lacks many of the features of an app like Notion. But, what all the other note programs lack is the ability to anchor all my notes to the Bible text itself. That's what keeps me in Logos Notes.
