Kind of a broad question. I wonder why people take notes - Is it for studies or learning? Is it just to remember things? Is it to make your own map of your knowledge? Is it because you just want a place to vent out your feelings into the void?

What do you use to accomplish that? App? Paper? A chat room?

  • I don’t do notes outside of work (where I use Microsoft OneNote to make notes of meetings and any coding training/code) but I keep many lists.

    At work I also use Rocketbook, which is a physical notebook you can reuse. You upload the notes to the cloud and then wipe off. It’s great.

    In terms of Lists though, they pretty much run my life. Lists of books to read, lists of things I see that my family might like for Christmas (so I’m never stuck not knowing what to get them), lists of places I want to go, films to see, pro/con lists, etc. I use Google Keep but probably going to start looking for a FOSS alternative
