vimwiki, every day, nearly every hour of the day. It's just a very long text file at this point; I only branch out to a separate page for specific projects or tasks. Not very structured, but very easy to find whatever I wrote or thought about at some point in the last few years since I've started using it. I tried Obsidian, briefly, out of curiosity, but didn't see the point of changing my current routine...

I never take notes. I just remember what I remember

Ideally: whiteboard -> picture -> never look at the picture again.

When there's no whiteboard: obsidian in sovereign mode (no accounts, sync, or anything)

I love handwritten stuff. I still have all my notes from my high school.

Only when I was preparing for National Eligibility Test (which recruits you in a college here), I did a lot of typing to attach a lot of references and citations. I still have all that work too, all of it is related to old and medieval English Literature.

Analogue for the win…. writing and putting thoughts to paper/animal skin/cave wall is thousands of years old. It’s therefore likely that the two process (thinking and expressing) are closely aligned speed wise.

Good quality paper and pencil for posterity :)

I like handwritten notes, the problem is the pile of junk and unnecessary drafts mixed with important stuff, piling up and cluttering the notes. I’m testing Logseq — open-source and private.

Most of the time, I write blurbs on a .txt file, text myself on Signal or write in G Keep then forget about a lot of them scattered all over when I need em.

In the occasions that I can remain laser-focused on a specific topic or project for a given amount of time, I use Notesnook, but not married to it.

Mostly hand written but I do keep a few notes in my phone. Dates for appointments, things I need to remember to pick up at the grocery store. Stuff like that goes in my phone because I will need it when I am out and about. Anything else is handwritten.

I got into the habit of hand written notes when I had my business. I used to carry a notebook with me all the time.

By accident I took a very cumbersome approach and found out I unconsciously settled with it, so I refrained from cleanlier solutions ever since: I take notes directly on the titles of events on google's calendar. It wasn't a conscious strategy, I used google keep before, but one day I needed to take a quick note and make sure I would not forget it so google's calendar was the way to go, and cumbersome as it was it just worked, and unconsciously I forgot of google keep existence ever since. So the virtue of this is that I always keep important notes on the loop until I settle them on a proper document (always Obsidian, it's just perfect). I only have to look on one app for everything, the calendar, so I make sure I don't forget anything, without thinking about it, specially if notes are linked to events. It turns out this is just a rediscovery of the good and ol' agenda, so I really hope google improves taking notes on the calendar in the future.
