I use Roam Research. It's just the tool I use. I use it because there was hype for it.

I delved deep into meta note-taking with RR. Watched videos, participated in book clubs, built a zettelkasten, etc.

While meta note-taking is not note-taking, I found the time spent meta note-taking meaningful. It is a reward on its own. The benefit, is that I now feel comfortable using my tool. And using it, I do.

While I also prefer for each of my passing seconds to contribute to the production an artefact, if it is not the case then it is fine too. That is the distinction between project and hobby.

I started as note-taking hobbyist and now I guess you could call me a note-taking pro :)

Do not hate the hobbyist.
