I use it for everything and not only work journal, this creates a small problem.Since I dump both future references and worklogs, and I have ~50 channels, it's very easy to not get back to things and only get back to it when needed(which is the idea mentioned by OP). It seems like a feature than a bug at first but after capture, one round of review after some time interval really helps. It took a while but slowly seeing the benefits.
For that I plan to write some bot to re-organize the worklogs and the reference/other things dump to my own email at the end of the week and then I can create something like https://simonwillison.net/tags/weeknotes/ for myself(private) to go though at the end of the week. I think it would be perfect for me.
1. cheats: https://cheats.geekodour.org/ (it's a fish script that writes things into a org file which gets exported into html, i use fzf to lookup while in the cli)
2. a toolchest page: https://geekodour.org/docs/tools/primary_toolchest/ (haven't updated in many months now)
3. wiki: https://mogoz.geekodour.org/posts/
wiki(3) gets updated daily, cheats(1) get updated whenever it's a command or tactical stuff, toolchest(3) gets updated very rarely like once a month but helpful to organize the various things i work on etc.
most effective has been cheats and wiki in day to day use, i use ripgrep to search through my wiki, no fancy search.

i am planning to add semantic search over my wiki and other places. Another major notetaking tool for me is pictures and screenshots, I've to figure out a way to make a better way to organize/search them in a more meaningful way

eg. what is preferable for which kind of org and projects etc. I see this as a very org and project specific thing and whenever I have to suggest a flow to someone or decide one for myself, it's almost "what feels right+any reasoning around why the other flow might not be suited etc", but i don't always feel confident about it.
why stop at 3?
