The best note-taking apps for collecting your thoughts and data / The Verge

I’m one of those who tried to find the “perfect tool”. It’s the fight between perfection and execution, perfection (excuse) wins most battles.

I tried a lot: OneNote, Evernote, Joplin, Notion, Obsidian, Keep, Apple Note, and OneNote; it never ends, just circles.

Somewhere along the line, rules form:

  • I must keep my own data — Obsidian

What worked? Spreadsheets, document, folders, and cloud.
