I'll be first to mention obsidian here. I solved my overloading/losing faith in systems issue with it by using a daily template. At the bottom of which are all the tasks in daily notes, generated by an inline script, another dynamic list of tasks for my freelance work. I could add my #ideas or #content lists too, but they are stored elsewhere. I add the #inv tag to my freelance work and that moves them to the "to invoice" list. When finally checked they disappear, but all still stored on their initial log date (all searchable, of course). So long lists of crud don't get the chance to accumulate, and ideas are easily searchable either in dynamic lists or just using search.

On the same page are mental/physical subheadings so a small bit of journalling takes place. I never look back at it, but it's there.

This beats all previous attempts at organisational systems. Obsidian has a great mobile app. Syncthing keeps them updated. Previous systems were Trello (perma loss of everything archived), big single plaintext file (soon becomes a heaving mess), paper (no search and easy for things to sink/not be surfaced). Taskwarrior, which was great for a long time, but tricky to sync and no additional features like journalling, swipe file creation, flashcards, search, mobile app (sync to cli env on Android was clunky). And surely more I'm forgetting.

Side benefits: all plaintext, whatever happens to obsidian. Graph view of all interconnected ideas. Easy resurfacing of old but relevant ideas through search and backlink sidebar. Could import my attempts at using vimwiki with zero conversion required. Much better UX than Vim. Great place to also write content, use wordcount, sprint, wordcount goal, calendar features etc.

For me the days of Vimwiki and org-mode are now numbered. Even most other note taking software tbh, for anyone OK with syncing their own stuff and figuring out a little bit of basic script syntax for the dynamic lists within the plaintext files.
