Great question! The answer is: it's still not my daily driver. I've built some notes in it, I've played around with all the new releases, and I still think it's a bit too early to be able to use it as a full replacement for anything.

I still think it's one of the pieces of software that has the best chance of really taking things to a new level, but they've got their work cut out for them just creating the most foundational features of last year's version of Notion.

Now, I stopped using Notion, too - I do everything inside Obsidian these days. But, if the UX for Anytype continues to improve (and they've made massive headway on this area already), if they keep bringing in the new features, and if they ensure a simple way to export all your data in standardized MD format, perhaps with a way to generate a folder structure at the same time? Then I'd be sold.

My best guess would be another 12 months of development.
