I just started using obsidian. It’s perfect for starting new projects because even when you don’t finish, you don’t have to completely restart.
Good notes are great, but only if you can find them. For half a year, my notes were just the date. It became an issue when I needed to remember a project I worked on in March but didn’t finish. Having links and screenshots and visually seeing relations between ideas has made it much easier to pause and come back later.
Its also got a bunch of excellent free community plugins that add more functionality, like drawings and data visualization. My personal favorite is called Iron Vault, it lets you run the really rather brilliant Ironsworn solo ttrpg system entirely in your notes with rolls and machanics being all taken care of inline
At this point I’ve given up doing things. Every new project is just a clutter-generating waste.
I’ve started joting ideas down on a markdown file in the Projects directory instead. Now to clean up my 500 browser tabs.
