> I also deal with this a lot, like many others, mostly centered around logging activity, saving information and todos

I used to preserve and organise all my digital life as well, but at some point I found it really liberating to just let things go. Storage might be cheap, but maintaining a comprehensive archive takes effort which could be better spent on future projects. In fact, I realised that treating historical data as ephemeral helps me achieve more and obsess less about perfection.

Of course this is just my personal opinion, different approaches work for different people.
