I used to think this was quite important and I still like the idea of interlinking notes, particularly for when I am using my phone.

But it is ultimately just more gardening.

I tried all sorts of systems like that and they all disappointed. What really matters is absolutely instantaneous search.

Edit to add: Apple Notes has finally added note-to-note linking, but at the moment I don't have all my Apple devices sufficiently up to date so I haven't tried it.

Notes also has tagging support which is another one of those things I was sure I'd use a lot more than I actually do.

It seems like such a useful feature but in reality I have a few pinned notes for to-do and shopping lists and ideas, and otherwise just make completely unstructured random notes, never using anything but tagging and setting the colors for pinned notes.

I have Calendar for reminders, and markdown files for things anyone else will see. I just need it to work, open really fast, search, and that's mostly it.
