I love google keep and notes. both are simple enough so I don't need to do anything special to begin taking notes.

As a software developer, one of the best things is creating something that you need yourself :). Despite being a long-time (since 2017) Notion user for structured note-taking, documentation and project management, I felt a gap in intuitive, agenda-focused platforms for personal journaling and daily planning. That's when I decided to create Penjo. It's my digital notebook that mirrors the intuitive nature of traditional pen-and-paper journaling using Apple Pencil, but with the added benefits of modern digital organization with features like iCloud syncing and Apple Calendar.
What excites me the most is that Penjo is a living project, constantly evolving based on users’ feedback and my own observations. I am planning new features like iPhone app support, handwriting recognition, and search to make it even better. There's something incredibly satisfying about realizing what you need from an app, and then having the skills to bring it to life. Penjo is that realization for me. :)
I currently use UpNote for notes. Love the interface and easy to share.
I maintain a second brain in Obsidian, not Notion.
I use Notion to take notes for a variety of purposes. Firstly, I use it for work-related tasks such as jotting down meeting minutes, tracking project progress, and documenting important information shared during discussions. It helps me stay organized and ensures that I have a centralized location for all my work-related notes.
Additionally, I also use Notion for personal note-taking.
I am using normal pen and notebook, to be honest I tired multiple apps but notes that I create with hand is better for me.

Most of my notes now are in online apps such as Notion. I used iPad with apple pencil a lot when I was in school.

I've tried Mymind recently and love the experience!
I use multiples things.
I really love to write a diary with a pen. Just problem is that it is not well organized and not easy to search.
For organizing and searching, I currently use notion. It is bit heavy for note taking but really good for organize my thoughts and etc.
I also use keep from google for quick note-taking.
For cleaning my thoughts, Writing blog is very helpful for me

1. apple notes, simplicity at its core. direct, intuitive, it's my go-to for capturing raw thoughts, lightning-quick. 📝⚡
2. notes for inklings, insights, learning. extracts from books, podcasts, tweets. they're often still simmering, unclear - but that's the charm. they're sparks, not fire, catalysts for intellectual growth. 📚🎧
and there's something enchanting about revisiting old notes, witnessing how past musings link with new ones. it's like a dialogue with my past self, excavating wisdom once overlooked. 🕰️🔍
note-taking is less about storage, more about engaging with the material, processing it, making it mine. it's a way to learn, to think, to understand. so, how do you weave your tapestry of thoughts?
As a college student, I currently take my notes in a variety of ways, depending on the subject and the professor. For most classes, I use a laptop to take notes. This allows me to type quickly and easily, and I can also use the laptop to search for information or to access online resources. However, for some classes, I find that it is better to take notes by hand. This is especially true for classes where I need to draw diagrams or take a lot of math notes.
I use Notion and I love it!
I'm all-in on Roam Research. It's like having a second brain, helps me connect dots like never before. I use it for everything - meeting notes, planning sprints, jotting down random ideas, even personal journaling.
