I wouldn't say it's unsolved, many people have a workflow that have worked for them for many years. Including people who used paper 20 years ago and still do today with the same techniques. It's a little like project management: there is no right or no wrong way to do it, just things that work for some people (or teams) and others that work better for different people (or teams). Additionally, the frontier between "note taking" and "personal project management", or "todo list" is blurry as they're usually done with same tools. The main difference is that notetaking being personal, there is no reason to converge and all use the same techniques. By contrast in project management, you have to work more or less the same way with the rest of your team or organization.

> I wouldn't say it's unsolved, many people have a workflow that have worked for them for many years. I mean it's unsolved in the sense that there is not dominating solution that works as a foundantion for a broader set of features and exchangable workflows. Everyone is constantly reinventing the same solutions, building the same low effort apps. It's all many many little isolated silos. > It's a little like project management: there is no right or no wrong way to do it There is many standardization in project-managment, from low to high levels. Though, it's true that on lowest levels there is also similar widespread of silos, because people avoid the complex solutions or simly don't know them.
