I've tried so many options for note taking but I can never find a good solution that fits all my needs. I find writing things down helps with comprehension and retention, but using a physical notebook has its limitations when you want to reference images or snippets found online.

In the end I landed on OneNote, but I find it to be slow for larger notebooks, and it doesn't have an intuititive method of linking different notes from different sections for easy reference. However I like the handwriting recognition far better than Apple variants, and I felt like with apps like Notion I spent more time customizing and grokking the app than actually taking notes.
