Is your Notion notification center (All Updates) a dumpster fire?
š„šš„
Well, friend, worry not. Here's me, the Notion Jedi Grandmaster, going through my 59 notifications in a record 4 minutes and 54 seconds.
Do this to speed through @NotionHQ notifications: loom.com/share/7876c14ca0934f64b47417b5066764c0
1. Open Notion in a browser
2. Save/close all open tabs
3. Open "All Updates"
4. Scan through
5. Holding ā and click to open each page in a new tab
6. Once open, go to the last tab and go through
If you open a page but can't easily tell what's new, press ā + shift + \ to pop open the comments sidebar.
It makes finding and responding to new comments super easy, barely an inconvenience.
Bonus: If a page will take long to review, capture it as a task.
Copy the page link ( ā +L), then either:
1. Browser: type "notion.new" or "notion.so/new"; ā move to DB
2. Desktop: press "ā/Ctrl + N" ā move to DB
3. Both: find DB on sidebar, press "+"
Bonus bonus: If you use the 2) the desktop option, you can set a default location for new pages at the top left of the modal
Bonus bonus bonus: If you use Notion on mobile a lot there are two tools that allow you to create new pages fast.
1. Plus button in the recent or favorites widgets
2. Plus button in the bottom right of the app
