my methods have been:
use trilium for any detailed notes and documentation
memos for random thoughts especially if shorter
pen and paper when offline or on mobile because mobile trilium and moememos both suck
zotero for citation and bibliography manager
backed up to nextcloud
i have paperless-ngx but found it randomly errors a ton of things and zotero is fine.
considering if it’s worth it to have so many different spread out methods
theyre fun to use but it creates more chaos then needed
Kind of similar, I use Joplin which uses markdown syntax. Then I back that up on a monthly basis to my server manually (just a copy-paste over NFS)
