I'm already tired of AI infecting everything online. I'm annoyed at Tumblr for selling our content. I never want Google to summarize a webpage for me. And now I'm fed up with Notion and all the AI buttons they're shoving in my face.

No, I don't want to ask AI.

screenshot from Notion with round button options reading Get started with Ask AI, To-do list, Weekly plan, journal, Table. A small round button with sparkle emoji is in the bottom right hand corner. — This is at the bottom of every blank page.

No, I don't want to upgrade my plan for more AI features.

Screenshot of the Notion sidebar with book emoji reading log and below that arrow pointing up emoji Upgrade plan — This is now a permanent part of my sidebar.

No, I don't want Notion AI to tell me anything.

Screenshot of the Notion menu bar options which put Ask Notion AI about... above the user's content — These are my menu bar options.

I just want to use your app to collect my own ideas and do my own brainstorming and write my own words. Why doesn't any software company understand that I like to make my own stuff? I enjoy using my own brain. It's hard sometimes, but that's what makes the results feel so good!

Anyway, if you've got recommendations for a notes app that isn't selling out their users to AI, I'd love to hear them.
