Which tools do you use to organise your life around, if any?

I'm curious because I've spend many hundreds of hours building a system to organise my life and I wonder if others have something similar in their lives.

Emacs because it’s an OS inside another OS 🤣

Apple Notes & Google Calendar.
I've used hundreds of productivity tools and I keep coming back to Apple Notes. No login every other week, super fast, works offline, no annoying updates, no forced paid plans, no acquisitions or shutdowns, synced everywhere, flexible enough...

@arthur_sav I get where you're coming from. I often feel the urge to burn down my notes apps and start again with just the basics
Notion, primarily! And, I’d include Things 3 by Culture Code.
GitHub because -> Native markdown, issues, sync, free, blog, web hosting, great eco system

@jandemiralp Its part of the fabric of the internet. I like products that become fabrics. Like notion as well. Notionists and githubbers.

100% Notion! :)
Upnote for notes, Notion for tasks and CRM. Currently testing Coda to see where it fits

This is a question many of us have haha. I have to thank Google for helping me organize my life.
- Google Calendar
- Google Drive
- Google Keep for notes
+ Trello
For fellow devs who live in the command line like me, I found ultralist to be perfect, it's a flexible todo list right in the command line so no need to go to an external website or application.

@jandemiralp I quit my Raindrop.io paid subscription for Readwise Reader pro, just fyi to check out
Notion is life! 💟;)
Notion! Ive built a simple project management template to organize my personal and business stuff. It helped me become more productive
I have a distaste for juggling numerous tools and I prefer the simplest solutions, hence:
- I rely on Google Calendar for arranging my schedule
- I use Slack for brief reminders
- I scribble my to-dos and swift notes on scrap paper, typically on an old envelope
- and, for extended note-taking, I turn to Notion.

@shamil_kuramshin Nice, thanks for sharing :)
Notion for work-related organisation and professional cooperation, but I can't hype Obsidian enough as a personal wiki, and to keep track of information you might want to revisit in the future.
Obsidian is something I *wish* I'd come across during my time at university.
I use Notion for all purposes, from project management to notes for personal matters in order not to be forgotten 😂

@bojan_gulevski That's where I started out. Maybe you'll be interested in the Notion template I built. Here's the link in case you are: https://www.innercompass.academy...
