Like many others here I've tried more or less all of the productivity services and only one of them has actually stuck: Discord.

I made a server called Diary, accessible only by me, and I have a few different channels like work-log, life-log, d&d session notes, joke ideas, etc. I also feed all screenshots I take into a channel, and set up a chrome extension that sends whatever page I'm on to the web-log channel as a link.

Wow I too have a personal discord channel where I add ideas, bookmarks, journal etc. in separate channel.

What I like about discord is the full text search - its super fast. Is your chrome extension public, really interested in it.

Yep! https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/discord-link-sende...

You just set up a bot on your server, and give the extension the URL the first time you activate/click it.

Edit: To be clear, it activates on user action, i.e. it doesn't send all my history to the channel. I did try that for a while but it just made a lot of noise that I never combed through. This one suits me much better; just right click and send to discord.
