I ditched Google Calendar for Notion's Calendar view, and I can't go back

It's intuitive, detailed, and integrates well with databases.

I ditched Google Calendar for Notion's Calendar view, and I can't go back

I use several tools every day to accomplish my work. Some of them are directly involved in writing articles like these, while others help with ideation, research, note-taking, tracking time, etc. While certain apps can do all of these tasks, I prefer using standalone services. It helps me organize my workflow more efficiently, since I know exactly which app to open for what purpose. This is one of the main reasons I stopped using Notion earlier this year. However, I was recently made aware of Notion's Calendar view feature, and I couldn't help but try it out myself. Safe to say, I've now gone back to Notion—not for managing my database or creating a personal knowledge management system, but solely as a calendar that can help me plan my content and keep track of my progress.
