1. Mainly book summaries/notes/reviews. Planning to evolve it into full-scale compilatory essays.
2. About once a week or once new material is available i.e. I've finished a new book.
3. Github because I haven't gotten around to hosting it on a "real" domain yet.
4. https://skorbenko.github.io

I use NVAlt with a quite complex tagging method. All in all, I guess you could say that it is a Zettelkasten notebook. [1]

Is there a way to make this work via cryptocurrencies?
Just looking to start a discussion.

Actually, I made something of the sort that you're asking for [1]. Thank you for checking it out, and I would love to hear some healthy criticism!

I wholeheartedly second your opinion on Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi's book. In fact, I liked the book so much I even tried to condense it into somewhat of a summary [1]. The book is thought to be a Modern Classic, and at least in my opinion, it deserves the title. Deep Work has some interesting ideas, but is not yet time-proven, whereas Flow is.
Just my 2 cents ;-)

What you propose is perfectly decent and centrist.
With the current political climate and the power echo chambers have over people’s radicalization, however, centrists are practically unelectable.

As a Gen Z-er, email for me is an opportunity to write long letters, mulling over every word to convey the emotion just right.
However, if I am with someone at the present moment, all of my attention is on him/her.

Exactly- it is the best I have found so far. However, the main problem hides in everything to do with images, as they cannot be appended to a text document. Because of that, I am using this naming scheme:
example.txt needs an appended image. In the doc, I write “[0]”, and create an image named example-0.jpg.

I’ve given up on absolutely everything; As of now, I just keep .txt files in my Dropbox, accessed via any app on the market.

As far as I know, Slack and Telegram are currently the two leaders in the “searchable” area of messaging apps.
