Lists in text files work great. So unbelievably great.

I go back to them often, and some things can outgrow them completely when you want to:

- Reduce the work between my list and collaborating with others (a shared list) - First class convenient experience on all my devices is useful - Notes synced automatically can go a long way. - When projects grow, and there's more details to manage, along with updates, than not.

Has anyone used the text file appoach that can be compatible with LogSeq/Obsidian?

I'm not sure why, but this time using mainly LogSeq has clicked. I do run it inside of an Obsidian Vault just in case... but haven't used Obsidian much. I really like the feel of per line item like a text file that logseq provides. There are tradeoffs too though.

I think I might be enjoying it because it's plaintext, with a little bit more metadata, when/if I want it.

The hashtags I invent that only I know are almost an unfair advantage for pulling up all the meetings with a person, or a topic, etc.
