NextCloud and GitHub. I use NextCloud for the browser/mobile syncing and more journal/quick todos type of notes. I use GitHub for my technical notes. My big thing is minimizing the time between a thought and getting it down and freeing that space in my mind. Whatever is fastest is what I need because I forget things pretty quickly, or I don't trust my memory. Being able to pull out my phone, open the NextCloud Notes app to make a note, and then being able to access that anywhere in a browser really cuts down on syncing issues and delays. This is an evolution from my earlier years where I wrote in notebooks which I favored that for the longest time until I saw the value in minimizing the delay between thought and writing.
I use markdown for everything and have txt files going back to 2013 that I'm slowly formatting to markdown as they were dumped from a Google Docs exodus I haven't made the time to clean up. My goal is to eventually make a database of my thoughts and look for patterns and insights while learning the tools required to do that in the most modern ways :)
