My notes are #PlainText first, #Markdown second. They're highly portable between platforms, apps, and devices. #macos and #ios are my weapons of choice, but they'd look and work the same on #android and #Windows.

They aren't #Obsidian notes, or #Logseq / #iaWriter / #tangent / #TextEdit / #Nota / #AnyType / #Taio / #TaskPaper / #vsCode notes, though I can use any of those apps as a lens to view and work with them.

They're wild, and free. This is their theme song:

@ellane That's intersting, thanks. For more than a year, I now keep my to-do list in the todotxt.org/ format. It's plain text, but with dedicated software (I use the FOSS tool sleek on Linux) you can have pretty neat and sophisticated lists with filters etc. But as it is plain text, you can view and edit your list with every text editor. I keep my tasks separate from my notes (I use Joplin).

@gisiger Todo.txt intrigues me. I’ve played with it often, but keep coming back to the TaskPaper syntax. It wouldn’t take long to switch over though, if I decided to give todo.txt another go.

I published a piece on the topic on my blog just a few hours ago, coincidentally. It talks about principles of changing methods, not todo.txt specifically.
