I use org-mode in emacs:
* For scratch notes I have a little bit of elisp I wrote to take a note title and file it into a year/month folder with day prefix
* For permanent notes I use org-roam with a zettelkasten-like method. I do one idea per note and link each new note into a couple other notes that seem relevant.
* todo.org for concrete tasks
* inbox.org for anything of interest to process later. I use beorg on my phone to add to this.
* contacts.org for birthdays
I also use SuperMemo 18 for incremental reading, a general deck for facts I deem important, and a deck for my Russian learning. I haven’t totally figured out this piece yet though, and there’s a nuance to what goes into my zettelkasten and what goes into my spaced repetition decks.
