    I like to use an Obsidian-style set of markdown files for anything I need to remember long-term. (I use an nvim plugin because I already use nvim frequently but same diff) Otherwise I use browser bookmarks for things I find interesting or want to check out but haven't had the time. For everything else I have a TUL notebook with the little rings and the custom hole puncher to go with it. That lets me take physical notes or draw diagrams/doodles.

    I've gone down the rabbit hole of "perfect" knowledge system storage and have settled on those three methods as good enough for me. Markdown/Obsidian is great for just dumping things with keywords and being able to search and find them later, bookmarks for online stuff that's not so important but I want to remember, and then the physical notebook with pages I can re-arrange for anything that I don't want to type.
