My solution to this problem is .... Github! There are probably multiple ways to use GitHub as your personal note taking repo but my current approach is to:
This approach give you several advantages... it's easy to search, it's easy to add labels, it's easy to share the notes (and even have others contribute via comments), and easy to add references and addendums via comments to your own issues. Plus.... you get a GraphQL API for your notes, for free!
That was my thinking behind my own notes repo:
github.com/dvas0004/NerdNotes
I use the GraphQL API to power a front-end that I use to browse my notes on my smartphone whenever I want to "revise" or have some free time:
nerdnotes.davidvassallo.me/
Hope that's a good inspiration!!! :)
This has been my quest for searching for the perfect note taking app: evernote, apple note, onenote, google keep, etc. I finally ended up staying with Simplenote which is very simple in terms of features (only text, no image, no todo list, no collaboration, etc) but is fast, support offline and search.
:thinking_face: Didn't know about Simplenote. Will give it a try, as your description looks interesting as I don't use images, todo list and are personal notes so text only works for me :)
Yeah this note app has been acquired by Automattic (the company behind Wordpress) as its founder is fan of this app 😃.
I do paper notes as well. I've tried digital notes - usually in something like OneNote since I prefer cross-platform access - but I find paper notes more effective in helping me think and clarify what I'm working on.
What I may try in the future is taking them on paper, but then taking 10-15 minutes at the end of the day to transcribe and organize the relevant parts in OneNote. This seems like it would solve several problems - paper to help me work through a problem, transcribing them to help with retaining the knowledge, getting it into OneNote to make it searchable.
I use visual studio code with markdown
It's easy to create a PDF to share if someone else forgot to note on his own
My TODO list is in notion because I like to add comments
I also tried one note, Google keep, Evernote and notion before
OrgMode in Emacs is quite useful for this. It's simple to use, and uses plain text files so you can use Git or Dropbox to keep them synced between different machines. I also use it for estimates.
And that's despite being a Vim user...
I use Notion, and keep my notes in a database with pictures from my notebook. Then I apply tags on the rows so that I can find them later.
Also, I do picture, doodle based notes, so tags work for me!
I have always been a fan of evernote. I have folders in different categories like reading, blogs, writing ideas, office etc.
Each time I get something around my head, i jot that down to evernote.

I discovered Boostnote a couple of days ago and I love it so far! You can use Markdown or just save small snippets of code and organise your notes with folders and tags.
I started using notion.so and it's really cool. I don't know It has search bar and design is ultra simple. They have desktop and mobile app. Check this out too: notion.so
