A further word on a digital notebook; @obsidian is so far my favourite, and would highly recommend.
Solid features, great plugins, and it's all in Markdown files, so if you every really need to, you can escape and use something else.
Got burned the hard way by #Evernote as to how important that last bit is 
The best bit of advice i can give any junior developer; get a note book. Preferably a digital one.
Take notes. Takes notes about _everything_. Found a console command? Take note. Someone gave a weird reason as to why X does Y? Take note.
It's an amazing habit, that constantly pays dividends.
Get inspired but not tied down by systems designed by others.
Anyone got suggestions for (FOSS?) Linux & Android alternatives to Google Keep?
I use Keep for shopping lists, memos, aide-memoirs etc. I like that it syncs seamlessly. I dislike that it helps Google train AI, ads, etc etc.
Can be browser based. I do plan to get my own NAS going oneday but at the mo I don't have my own always-on storage. (except the phone which is almost never off...!)

I’ve been logging everything I do in a personal CHANGELOG.md in @obsidian since January, and I absolutely love it.
Every day I add something to the list, and it makes me feel like I'm achieving something. This is an important part of recovering from feelings of inadequacy and workaholic tendencies.

I think the arguments made in favour of #HTML in this November 2016 Adam Hyde post in the context of book production platforms also apply to #notes production and management software, primarily because I feel a local #website is the best way to create and manage notes (as I hinted earlier).
https://www.adamhyde.net/building-book-production-platforms-p2/
We need copyleft software that will make it simple for the average user.
@pauby @ellane @publicvoit @jeffbronks
My previous comment was half in jest, but...
If someone wants to truly "own their full data" as #HTML, and also keep the "rich markup" parts accessible long-term without porting to a #notes app, they can consider adapting for themselves the approach discussed in this link.

I understand this is technical and not easy to adapt for note-taking.
AFAIK, there isn't a ready-to-use #FOSS solution around.

@sacha I guess the RSS is https://communitymedia.video/feeds/videos.xml?accountId=216498&token=8cb5dc2f-82e7-4d3f-ad2c-95457f46b631 and I am going to put all the years there including your interviews... eventually. Might need to add subtitled/post-ex-facto video content.
One of the most overlooked but useful features on Mastodon is "Notes". These let you add private info to profiles which only you can see:
https://fedi.tips/what-are-notes-on-mastodon-what-does-click-to-add-note-mean-on-mastodon-profiles
A lot of people use notes for keeping track of why they blocked or muted someone, but there are also lots of other purposes.
Notes can be created on the web interface and some third party apps. Just click on the "Add note" section of a profile and type what you want.
