I have spent the last three weeks obsessing over the same decision regarding which notes app is actually right for my workflow. Between Apple Notes, Notion, and a dozen other productivity tools, it feels like a constant cycle of optimizing and then starting over. In this episode, I break down why choosing a notes app is so difficult right now and why the system you use matters far more than the software itself.We also dive into the reality of AI subscription fatigue. After canceling ChatGPT, Claude, and Raycast, I realized that having the latest models doesn't mean much if you can't find your ideas when you need them. I share my experience trying to consolidate everything into a single reliable system and why I keep getting pulled back to the defaults.Finally, we talk about the latest updates from Apple, including the new Creator Studio bundle and their strategic move to use Google's Gemini for Siri. It is a brilliant play that limits their risk while buying time to build something better.I am curious what notes app you are currently using and if you have found a system that sticks.
