One of my new-decade resolutions as we have just entered the 2020s is to keep a better lab book. Just a continuous stream of context, things tried, things that worked, things that didn't work, where I got information from, who I spoke to about things, decisions.

Do you use a digital labbook? If so what do you use? I am currently trying MS OneNote. Just pasting everything in. Pictures, screengrabs, thoughts parameters. But I am wondering if there is a better alternative.

I started with EverNote, but I really like Roam's daily pages now. It powers my Human Log well.[0]

If you are a programmer and a fan of terminal UIs you can give Joplin a try. been using it for 3 months daily with dropbox. its really good.

I've tried Evernote, Apple Notes, Google Docs, Markdown, etc.

But I've tried now not worry about the process too much and just to get on with actually writing in it!

I use Apple notes for everything. If I can't find documentation or a guide for a task I'm doing I write a blog post on how to do it afterwards.
