I was going to suggest a zettelkasten but while reading this noticed the author namedropped "How to Take Smart Notes" by Sönke Ahrens*.

Basically, when you take notes, summarize them in your own words. Look at a tool like Obsidian which uses markdown to save notes in plaintext. Look at people using this on YouTube if you want to dive deeper into the ecosystem.
