Notion is a powerful all-in-one workspace - documents, databases, wikis, project management. But that power comes with complexity. When you just need to quickly write something together and share it, Notion is slow to load, requires an account, and stores everything. Keynou Clipboard is the fast, simple alternative for ephemeral text collaboration.
