Twitter Guy Says He Uses Notion To Maximize Productivity Of His Marriage, Leading To Complete Chaos
Ben Lang, an early member of the Notion team and the productivity software's former head of community, posted to Twitter / X on Sunday about the Notion HQ page he and his wife use to manage their marriage.
Titled "Our Home Base," Lang's Notion page includes a list of friends to set up on dates with each other, a list of chores and a log of "previous date night memories."
Notion, which is often used by businesses in the technology space to manage projects and workflows, offers a way to organize to-do lists, calendars and notes — similar to other CMS platforms.
Lang's marital Notion includes grocery lists alongside documents about "principles" and "learnings" that undergird his marriage.
As it went viral, many posters online made fun of Lang, seeing his Notion document as representing the always-be-optimizing vibes of Silicon Valley.
To many, the Notion page seemed like an attempt to bring corporate hustle tactics and project management culture to love and family.
Others, however, approved of the Notion and argued it was evidence of good communication in his marriage.
There were several various memes and jokes about the possible consequences of failing to live up to commitments made on the marriage Notion, but overall, the template appears to be popular.
According to a recent post, Lang has sold over 1,500 versions of the template to other people, making a total of $577 as of today.
Lang also appears to understand the meme, posting an updated template leaning even further into the parody of tech-bro optimization culture.
The new template is complete with hundred-year goals, an option to AI generate daily affirmations and tickets to ask for IT help.
