### Create a Block
Notion's command pallet works almost precisely like Anytype's. Use the forward-slash `/` to open the command palette. Type to search, use the arrow keys to navigate up and down, or scroll through the list with your mouse. Press `Enter`, or click on the block type you want to create the desired block. By default, when you start typing on an Anytype object canvas, the block type will be plain text.

Want to create a block between, below, or even above another block? You'd have used the `+` button with Notion to only make a block below the current block.\

Move your mouse over to the `+` button that just appeared, and you'll see a yellow line appear. This line indicates where your new block will be inserted. Click the `+` button, and a new block will be created where the line is located.

If you delete a webpage or a link, the web pages that it linked to won't be affected or deleted. Other shortcuts will continue to work.
Similarly, in Anytype, other objects (pages in Notion's lingo) can link to another entity. This is how you organize other objects within your everyday thing. If you delete links within an object or the object itself, the objects it linked to won't be deleted, and other links to that object in other things will continue to function.

#### **What does this mean for me?**
Any types of object linking architecture are more flexible than Notion. You may be off-put by the different architecture, but coming from a user who switched his entire workflow over from Notion to Anytype, you'll come to understand the benefits in no time.
Anytype's of object linking architecture are more flexible than Notion. You may be off-put by the different architecture, but coming from a user who switched his entire workflow over from Notion to Anytype, you'll come to understand the benefits in no time.
Having objects (or pages, if that's what you prefer) not be locked inside a hierarchical silo but instead linked together in a knowledge graph brings numerous advantages. You no longer need to think about \*where\* an object belongs in your tree or where to place it. You simply link it. This allows for a much more natural flow of information than storing data inside a hierarchical note system.

![Here's a Notion database. Each database entry is a page and has predefined properties, such as Tags, URL, and Phone.](../../.gitbook/assets/notiondatabaseexample.png)
Any types equivalent to Notion's databases are Sets. However, unlike Notion databases, Sets do not **store** objects. Instead, they **show**, not store, all objects which meet a specific criteria, kind of how search works. Currently, sets can only show things with a particular type of relation. Don't know what a Relation is? We'll cover it shortly.

This makes Anytype much more flexible than Notion. For example, if you wanted to create a database with Notion, you are stuck with it. You cannot move pages outside of the database, nor can you bring pages inside a database once they have already been created (without annoying workarounds and time-wasting steps.) Instead, with Anytype, you can get **any** existing object in view with a Set.

In Anytype, relations (Anytype's equivalent of properties) are applied to individual database entries and applied to **every single object**. [relation.md](../../fundamentals/relation.md "mention")s describe each Object. Many Notion properties are also applicable to Anytype's relations, such as `tags`, `URL`, `phone number`, `last modified by`, `descriptions`, `checkboxes`, and more. 
Relations can be defined as a Type. This is the equivalent of using the `+` button in a Notion database to create a new property. All your relations will come for each new object created, and they can be configured in Type and not by properties in a particular database like in Notion\
