Notion is an amazing tool because you can design your pages to look how you want. You can change the colors of blocks, change the colors of text, but can you change the background of your Notion pages?
Notion does have some limitations. You can’t change the background of Notion to be whatever you want with just Notion. But you can make some changes and with extra tools like Potion, you can customize Notion even more.

Change dark mode in settings
