Productivity Youtube is a HUGE rabbit hole. It's easy to get completely lost in videos about optimizing Obsidian or Notion.
I have gone that far sometimes just for the sake of completeness, to be as sure as possible that I'm not losing something that's a breakpoint in how you organize things. But I learned that if a method relies on being way deep to be functional, chances are it's way too rigid and impractical. I do engineering projects that require hundreds of doc pages, and obsidian with markdown, a simple table of contents and a file browser just collapses all back again to manageable levels.

You will learn about new tools possibly better without actively searching

In practice that's what happens. The one tool I settled with, obsidian, is the only one that was brought to me directly. But I like to deplete possibilities, at worst you learn other ways to not to do things.
