To be honest there isn't really one, a lot of these concepts are advanced even for graphics programmers

You don't have to use the same solution for work and personal notes

What I realized at least for me is that work notes and personal notes are two different use cases

The .txt file approach works for work stuff because I never need to reference it on mobile, if I'm doing software development I need to be on a computer anyway.

Whereas personal stuff I need an actual notetaking app like Notion for the mobile usability

I've done the same thing for a long time

The only extra thing is I set up autohotkey macros

For example typing $today or $yesterday will insert the date with a dividing line underneath to separate days into clear blocks

I've tried a lot of different note apps and what I eventually realized is that when it comes to work, I generally don't actually care about old notes 98% of the time.

I only really care about the last week or two and when everything is in one file its optimized for viewing that, like a working memory.

The text file ends up gigantic but its still small data for a computer even after many years of adding to a single file and searching is still fast.

Every time I see an article like this I ask the same question: show me the money?

If it’s so good why hasn’t it made you rich?

Not everyone is building web apps/web services

The more niche the thing you’re working on the worse results I’ve found these tools to give

These articles act like creating new demo apps or isolated tools is what software development is all about
