When I was running i3 I basically used it as a glorified workspace switcher. I ran a terminal with tmux full screen on one workspace and a browser full screen on the other. i3 let me swap between them, run a status bar with a clock and other little helpers and a launcher for when I needed some other app. The only bindings I needed to know where how to switch workspaces and how to navigate tmux and neovim.
where I can think of numerous hacky solutions for the job (i could use i3, or split tmux and add keybinds, or split panes in vim) and it feels unsustainable.
Given what you say about how you use i3/tmux, I think it can replace both for you if you can adapt to it's sense of static tabbed and tiling window management.

That's pretty much where I'm at.

what would switching from i3 to notion accomplish? does it also replace tmux?
