I love the spirit of this. Caveman-level simplicity is awesome! I think I am personally too Grug of an audience for Grug Notes, though; my current note taking scheme is vim on text files in a notes folder.
- clnq 4y agowrite on hand not bad. enough usually. note always “on-hand” when need. hehe
- randomluck040 4y agoJokes aside, I’ve tried what feels like almost everything and outside of taking notes with Code this is what I’m doing. Writing it down in a notebook. Is it flawed? Yes. The time I need to learn the medium is zero however.
- lumb63 4y agoI also find (and have heard from others) that the act of writing things down helps you to remember them better (which somewhat obsoletes the note). It also, in my experience, forces your brain to think about them more because it has to externalize them through the slow medium of your hand. It results in surprising new thoughts being generated. Some people I know follow the system of, if they want to remember it, they write it down. If they don’t want to have to, they type it up.
- throwaway_9572 4y agoCaveman simplicity is the best! The “gardening” involved in many PKM apps is what has turned me away from them. I’ve started just throwing my stuff into a Markdown file on GitHub (so I can easily sync across devices). I’ve taken the same ethos to my website on GH pages (steph-inners.github.io) and use it to share knowledge that people commonly ask me about. It’s super easy to update, and Ctrl+F takes care of finding things later.
- BirAdam 4y agoI do the same, but I have a few bash scripts to handle search, tags, date sorting, git commit/push/pull for sync, and a few other things. Works well for me, but I imagine that others would hate it.
