A few months ago, I wrote about switching this blog's backend to Notion. At the time, it seemed like a good way to enable editing on the go.
However, in practice, I found both the Notion app slow and clunky to use, and the API surprisingly difficult to work with for content management. While SSH isn't perfect either, it's no worse than dealing with a sluggish app, and I'm looking forward to exploring how modern AI-powered tools like Claude Code can enhance the editing experience. The potential to get help with refactoring posts, fixing formatting, or brainstorming ideas directly in the terminal seems promising.
Going back to Markdown files gives me direct control over my content without the friction of external APIs or applications.
