I've realised that making my note taking process simpler leads to much better productivity.
At times I've just stopped taking notes because of the high activation energy required, now I just work with my Tablet or Notepad and worry about organising or integrating into my knowledge graph later.
Traditional note-taking is flawed. Take a look into Zettelkasten and stop caring about "folder organization". Logseq is great for that. I much prefer it over Obsidian because it's an outliner. Backlinks and tags make note-taking not only a breeze, but fun.
I strongly suggest that you completely ignore methodologies. Write wherever it first seems fit, and keep making backlinks as a way to breadcrumb your way back to your notes. That's how I do it and it has served me extremely well.
Thanks a lot for the suggestion! I had a look into Zettelkasten and Logseq, and I must say, it's been a game-changer for my note-taking process. The idea of not worrying too much about folder organization and just focusing on creating backlinks has made it so much more intuitive and enjoyable.
By the way, I was pleasantly surprised to find out that Logseq is open source! That's a fantastic bonus. Thanks again for pointing me in this direction – it's making a real difference for me.
