My Remarkable 2 E-Ink notebook for sure. I'm a pen and paper notes taker - R2 has been extremely useful in freeing me up from the pen and paper books. And my notes are searchable and tagged!

my hesitation with these E-Ink notebooks is getting the notes off the device and into my other computers in some automated way. Have you found a good workflow for that?
Boox eink tablets can automatically copy notebooks directly to Dropbox or Google Drive in PDF format. It's a very useful feature.

How close does it feel to pen and paper?

I loathe the idea of paying a subscription for a device I am already paying money for but I find pen and paper way more liberating than a computer. I am very tempted by e-ink notebooks as they feel somewhere in between the two

I find the Remarkable is pretty much exactly like pen and paper, but it syncs to the desktop which makes it way handier.
