As someone who is not into productivity apps as a hobby and just wants a place to make to do lists, organize my calendar, and take notes, I agree with the point at 7:30. Never heard of any of those apps (and 90% of the ones you listed tbh) and I'm super discouraged by the abundance of options and lack of uniformity. I have no desire to have a note taking app that uses a second app to integrate my to do list with my calendar application which uses a fourth app to pull information from my email app. It's too much work for the everyday person to bother with, including me. Not to mention 90% of them all have their own subscription fees and about 30% of them are cross-platform. As someone who uses Apple mobile devices and a Windows PC both for work and personal use, I'm kinda screwed. I have no interest in spending $100 a month to organize my thoughts. If that's the case, pen and paper will truly make a comeback for people who don't have the apps paid for by the company they work for. For a bunch of people that love organization, none of these things seem organized to outsiders.

In the meantime, I need to export my notes. Evernote really needs to evolve conceptually. Apps like Obsidian, Roam, and LogSeq are way ahead of their time but will continue to gain traction as the evangelism grows.

Firstly, really enjoyed this video! Thank you… 👍🏾 I’ve mainly used Evernote and left them for a while over the last two years but now back. As a busy dad with 2 kids and a hectic workplace I do find structure hard and appreciate with Evernote I don’t really faff around with formatting. Retrieval is fast foo. I did notice (which was a nice little benefit) that the interface looks a lot more modernised in 2022 too. I tried Notion and do think it’s excellent, I just never have the time to shape it so easier to use Evernote and a nice task app.
@lila3240 Жыл бұрын
I don't know how I'm just seeing this video, but I completely agree with the last prediction. I used to use task-management or to-do list apps, but since discovering motion, I stopped using all of them. As someone with ADHD, looking at a bunch of tasks in a list is so overwhelming and discouraging. Having Motion bock the time for me on my calendar in a way that ensures I prioritize by importance & due date is CRUCIAL. I have been so surprised in recent months that not many people are talking about it.

Exciting and excellent video. I would like to add my 2cents. AI will be adopted by more companies. There are many Notes apps, but only a few are multi-languages that allow using Latin languages, right-to-left languages, or the Far East languages. I think the next thing Evernote should do is adopt more languages; it will boost them ultimately. I absolutely agree with Francesco that To-Do apps as they are today will disappear completely. Last, the borders between work and personal are going down (people working from home), and there will be a need to find a solution combining both worlds in a better way.

I strongly agree with the concept of "Friction" used in this talk. I think that Modular Apps (undestanding modular as the ability to create blocks with functions like "To do list" or "Calendar") are great for the constantly evolving team projects. But in the case of Notion its so difficult to make a workspace feel comfortable with all that colorless user interface. I think that the things that can keep this Apps alive in the near future are : Frictionless setup, Visual Friendly user interface, and the most important : Integration with other apps. If those apps still want to be the all in one solution they will be digging their own graves

Oooh some spicy predictions. I love it! Totally agree with to-do apps. More to-do apps need to be opinionated and walk people through a system for getting things done, not just writing endless lists. I'm also with you Francesco, linked based apps I don't think are ever going to go mainstream in their current form. I can't even fathom trying to explain how my IRL friends (not productivity or PKM people) would use Roam or Obsidian. I can't find a use case where they would go through the setup and the learning curve... it's just not feasible.

Yay! Thanks for the wonderful news that my beloved Obsidian is nowhere close to going mainstream. Mainstream kills the company spirit behind the original product and is the reason why apps like Evernote and Notion have jumped the shark. They started being more popularity seeking than true to their core essence. With your assessments on pop adoption of Obsidian, it means that it should at least last the next year without selling out or trying to grow beyond the passionate fans it already has. Happy for the next year at least, keep that negative trend assessment coming!

Exactly this. Productivity enthusiasm is a fashion business, full of people who pretty much started on Macs, Google, Evernote and maybe Todoist and branched off from there. They were like this exactly because what they chose wasn't dry, dull corporate stuff that Microsoft represented, especially back in the day. And it's still like that. Everything's Apple and Google by default, Windows and Android are afterthoughts and the Microsoft world doesn't exist. Phone apps, too: The US and Canada are pretty even with Android-Apple splits of about 55-45 and 60-40. The rest of the world? 72-28 in favour of Android.

An alternative for Sunsama, Akiflow and Motion is Skedpal. I tried all 3 of them and what I can tell is the following: Sunsama is really nice because it encourages you to establish habits but it is laggy most of the time. Akiflow is also laggy and tries to do too much. It can bring things from other parts but if you have 6 sources of tasks maybe it’s time for a rethink of the system. Motion was very expensive and I webt to it for the auto-scheduling feature which is blown away by The system built in Skedpal. In Skedpal your tasks are auto-schedules based on: Time to complete it Priority Deadline Time-maps Existing event in multiple schedules The challenge is to go through the whole tutorial and understand it. It’s not something that you can jump in and work with it unfortunately. So if you are searching for a mix between Todoist, Motion, Workflowy and a calendar app, this would be it.

So if Tiago Forte is correct about using lots of specialized apps & services instead of one “mega-app”, then that sounds like Microsoft’s services would benefit. Many different specialized apps, linked together with “Loop”, and all (mostly) secure behind Microsoft’s security wall. As a small business owner, that sounds more appealing than a bunch of third-party apps & services, quasi-linked together with Zapier or something. In my opinion, there are too many security risks with the third-party method. Notion *could* be a good alternative to Microsoft, but only if they upped their security and ease of use. (Don’t get me wrong, I actually enjoy setting up my own databases and task lists, but it’s still *a lot* of friction to get up & running, which takes time away from just getting sh*t done!)

I'd have to disagree with every single statement 😅 Evernote is lightyears behind competitor apps and if the speed currently is what it is AFTER they rewrote their codebase I see no hope for a change. Next, If "least friction" was the deciding factor we would all be using Google keep. Lastly on the "reliability issues" of the linking apps roam, obsidian and logseq: I only have used obsidian and I can't even remotely recall any issue. In fact it is one of the fastest and most reliable pieces of software I have EVER seen in the consumer market. Also the fact that I can go to a css config file - say to change something in the theme - and literally change a value, completely arbitrarily to my liking, is insane (I'm not a developer). I honestly hope that the best product wins the race and not the lowest possible common denominator. Otherwise we could just have stayed with MS word

I’m totally onboard with the idea that apps like Notion will continue to try to bring everything all in one place, all within one application.

I disagree with your last prediction about planner apps. Or at least it's not true of me personally. After trying for quite some time to time-block my tasks-in fact I used all three of the planner apps you mentioned-I've decided that a well organized queue of tasks in my todo app (Things) plus blocks of reserved but unassigned focus time on my calendar, works best for me.

My prediction ... Microsoft loop if done properly, it will won the whole competition... All i need an app that orgnize my notes and connect them effortlessly .. and create task and orgnize my calander effectively... Until now Notion is the best since i can create mpst of these things but it way more friction than the rest ... coda3 suck at the calendar thing .... Just one app do those things and i believe it will win the whole competition... Microsoft has a potential since they got calendar app, note app, powerpoint the whole office and also has management app...

Spicy Take- Things3 could be the next productivity leader if they introduce views. Just imagine their beautiful design and ease of use evolving into different views. If you look at their app they already have aspects of different views already in play. Just imagine the headings and todos laid out horizontally in a kanban view. Just imagine the card-style these use when expanding individual todos used in a document view. Just imagine taking individual todos and adding them to a grid calendar view then when we tap on them they expand into the current card-style.

@@keepproductive What does F in the chat mean? Write F in the chat to pay respect is mainly used jokingly in video games when a character dies. If something sad happens, for example you die in the video game or you kill a chicken in Counter Strike, someone can say Write F in the chat to pay respect. In some cases the phrase is used if one of the players in a multiplayer game tells something sad that happened to them, for example, their girlfriend left them.

A lot of the time the cure for that is to keep it simple. I've been sucked into the vortex as well but thankfully my being a Windows/Android user and my workplace being a Microsoft shop saves me from the worst of it. But there's a reason those "I only use stock apps" / "just use Apple Notes" type memes keep going around. Fancy things look great, but we don't need a lot of it - organization costs effort, so only do so if it's worthwhile. Another adage: Every system that is successful and complicated grew from an earlier system that was less complicated and worked. If you try to go all in on some Ali Abdaal level of automated pipe everything through 200 apps type nonsense, you're just going to fail. Mail, calendar, cloud storage, a couple places to keep notes and write lists.

I take advantage of this video to ask probably the make probably the dumbest coming-out ever in the realm of productivity. Please note, I am old, I am 49. I come from sales, I served as a project manager in various capacity and various companies in different fields (mostly automotive and defense). I struggle, I really do, to have TO DO and PLANNING separated. since I started to work, in 1997, I always had to do things (lol call me captain obvious) but those things had to be done in a given time (to be effective) and BY a given time. like: it doesn't make any sense to spend 4 days writing a proposal for a customer if by the time the customer got your proposal he/she already decided.. also, please note: keeping track of this kind of date is very important for the survivability of the company because it allows people to understand where to invest money to improve the performance. So, here it is the coming out: am I the only one that cannot separate planning and to-do? is it that strange? please forgive me for the long post. thanks

I’ve been looking at productivity apps for the last few years and there is SO MUCH NOISE and COMPETITION. So I reckon FOR NOTE TAKING APPS: Evernote will have the biggest comeback. Obsidian and LogSeq will come in next (Obsidian and LogSeq will kill ROAM). FOR PRODUCTIVITY/TASK APPS I reckon TickTick and ToDoIst will survive and become TickTick AI and ToDoIst AI.

Evernote feels like the girlfriend/boyfriend you broke up with and went back to several times, each time being reminded of how much they disappointed you that you finally decided to say goodbye forever,,,,no matter how great they look when you bump into them again.

The problem is that, people using the app, and use it to do something that the app are not intended to, kinda like using notion for sales status, marketing funnel, Todo List it will be lacking and lead to frustration. notion is good for good ol note taking, knowledge base, and light database, that's it, nothing more, nothing less. it work well without friction. for quick writing and organizing it into different category, Notion is still the best out all. the productivity app is considered great if it allow you to be productive "Effortlessly", if you catch yourself stop using the productivity app, didn't help you, abandoned or the app just straight up getting in the way, then it's not a great productivity app. if your Todolist became stale and abandoned in the app, then it's not a good app i'm agree with Tiago about specialized app, there are a lot of great productivity app that just boost your productivity instantly and effortlessly, it just fit in your workflow nicely, and everything start to click

I greatly agree about Todoist. Great Checklist app, but integration with calendar is basically essential, and It suffers from that. TickTick, is great in that area, almost a Swiss Knife for individual productivity but UI makes it a little "vintage" looking and falls short in NLP, which makes it slow to use. IF Todoist adds .txt /.md export and Calendar integration (see and edit events) will be almost perfect. However, TickTick Price is way better for all they offer (Checklist, Calendar integration, Basic notes, Habit Tracker, Pomodoro...). IF TickTick improves NLP (to the level of Todoist) and renew its UI (Fresh and simple) will be almost unstoppable.

I recognize that Notion has the hurdle of you needing to expend energy to get it working for you, but I think that its ability to allow you to cater it your team's needs is what makes it a powerful tool. I am not saying it is perfect. I do think that Notion needs to put itself in a position that doesn't follow the path of Evernote took. And now with Microsoft Loop on the horizon, my hope is that they don't let up steam.
