I just started using zettelkasten method using org-roam. Since I just got started, my notes are not big yet. But it's amazing experience for me, that writing what I've just read in my own words made it stick longer rather than just reading without writing about it. Before I started using zettelkasten, I read the book How to Take Smart Notes by Sönke Ahrens. Then applied what I read.
Currently, I'm learning deep reinforcement learning and I have to deal with computer programming and mathematical equations in my notes. Fortunately, emacs org-mode supports org-babel, latex and latex fragments. My learning got better with this experience.
The disadvantage is that the learning curve using emacs and org-mode is steep unless you use emacs and org-mode every day.

- meristohm 5y agoI’ve heard of these (thanks, HN community!) and currently use Anki (for years the Android, Windows, and Linux versions, and recently paid for the iOS version). I mostly use cloze deletion to make multiple cards from one. Low barrier to making cards and reinforcing learning. Making effective cards is a work in practice. I start with small chunks to not hit walls.
