My notes (Emacs/org-mode/org-roam/attachments/agenda and so on) makes me able to find anything at my fingertips without traversing a filesystem, carefully storing files in a hyper-curated hierarchy etc, ultimately they made my life easier, more productive.
In smartness terms they give me:
- good reference when I need them
- details on something when I want
My brain is still the same, no IT tool so far can extend my neural processing, but the overall results are pretty positive.
My note against much other "apps" is:
- not integrated with anything else, so you can't link things like mail, financial transactions etc
- not easy to run automation on top of notes (something more complex than simple agenda reminder)
That's not much a "note app" issue but a system design issue. Emacs is a fully integrated tool, like classical systems, in the modern era for business reasons anything is just an isle with all the flexibility and usability issue of the case.
