I use Notion with a non google e-mail and don't mind the password being e-mailed to me. I have to re-auth maybe once a month, tops, and it's one less password to manage.
It is an extremely frustrating practice (emailing you the password). I find that I have to go through this every few days for whatever reason and I've had cases where the email from Notion took five minutes to arrive.
On the same note I’d recommend Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City by Matthew Desmond.
Written in research driven prose, it details the relationships between a handfull of landlords and tenants in some of the poorest neighborhoods of Milwaukee.
Thanks for the recommend! I just read the excerpt in the New Yorker [1]. Geez, this is some heartbreaking stuff, a an even more sobering account of the neoliberalization of urbanism than Solnit's book.
