I really liked Andy Matuschak's article “Better note-taking” misses the point; what matters is “better thinking” - https://notes.andymatuschak.org/z7kEFe6NfUSgtaDuUjST1oczKKzQ...

Over the years, I have also moved from one app to another when it comes to note-taking. Frankly, I was using them more as a place to put things that I might want to refer to later than using them to think about the problems that I was trying to solve.

Personally, I find that there are times when I need more of a free flowing format like paper or an iPad, but most of the time, text suffices. For the last six months or so, I have been using Roam Research and related apps(Obsidian) and they do really help me evolve a structure around my thoughts without having to have one when I am starting out.
