I'm not sure about the time tracking though. Is this more for people working on contract for billing? I see the value in having the data but collecting the data seems difficult.

Also, in my notes files, I have different sections for different subtopics within that file.
Note: My patent for this method is still pending. I'm hoping it gets reviewed by the person that handled 1-click purchase.

Its more of a tiered tagging style where there are more generalizable tags are parents of more specialised tags.
It might not be the best for everyone but my brain works well with it. I can usually derive what the parent tag would be from whatever topic I'm searching back up and then find the children notes/tags from there.
It is essentially keyword search that just somewhat organized.
Currently Joplin is my goto, since if fills all that plus encryption, and I'm eager to see what AnyType does in the future.
I'd rather use Markdown though, for the formatting capabilities alone.
For example, in markdown:
_this is italic_
*this is also italic*
__this is bold__
**this is also bold**
_this doesn't work_
*also doesn't work_
__this is italic__
**this is bold**Days separated with a blank line, and starting with date. Then I use initial spaces to differentiate between task, comments on this task and what is needed to do to finish the task.
Pretty easy to keep it consistent, and the use of spaces allow to easily identify the order of importance in each subset.
It’s always open in my editor, so it’s quick for notes of copy paste from the terminal
with the extra advantage of recalling them with tabtab instead of never remembering to read said notes :)
