Same. I have tried a few tools but none beat taking notes on paper.

You immediately get to mix text, tables and pictures. You can do it however you want. You can arrange it however you want.

Nothing beats this. Digital tools might be good at organizing old notes but I feel it is not necessary most of the time.

I have found the physical act of writing, and this is borne out by research, helps me retain what I have just taken down.
