After moving in and out of different things like workflowy, gdocs, dayone, notion, slack, discord, trello...I've been increasingly using just .txt and .csv files for the past half year or so.
Especially if it's just me working on my own, the benefits of any service aren't outweighed by the cost of later having to extricate myself from some startup's proprietary system.
@Mischa do you have a system? Todo.txt?
I have a few large files (e.g. "2019 journal.txt" or "todo.txt") with contents sorted by date.
And then I group everything else by project:
Projects
-- [20xx-xx-xx] [brief title]
---- notes.txt
I found that apps tend to want me to separate file types (go here for a list of todos, go there for notes, go elsewhere for storing images) and have lots of little files. Whereas I prefer to just use folders and organize by date and project.
