I used to just keep a folder full of plain text files but recently (as in the last 2 weeks) moved to obsidian and the ability to add some simple markup (headings, code snippets) as well as search the content of the files easily has been a game changer.

Similarly, Joplin is great. Just migrated 10 years of note out of OneNote. Getting them out of OneNote was arduous; getting them into Joplin was a breeze.
