Celebrating Notion’s new Feed view layout

Notion recently introduced a new database layout type:

The Feed view.

It’s a single column content feed that allows you to display content like a news feed.

The advantage of the feed view is that it shows a content preview without having to open the page. While this is similar to gallery and board views, the feed view shows much more content, including more advanced formatting with columns, and even linked databases:

Feed view of Task database, with a page containing a linked database preview.

You can even interact with the databases inside the content previews!

How might you make use of the new Notion Feed view?

My favorite Feed view use case is sharing life updates with family and friends!

When friends ask me, hows the kitchen renovation going?
How’s your garden?
What have you been cooking lately? What are your favorite recipes?
How’s the Invisalign going?

I can point them to a public page where I document my updates.

I love being a resource for others, so if something I’m learning or experimenting with is helpful to others, why not document it once, and share multiple times?

It’s also nice to have a place to point people to that isn’t owned by any one social media platform.

Here are three fun use cases where I’m using Feed view (and links in case you want to check them out for your own inspiration!):
