It took me a while to realize that the software lesson of doing a migration by working against a good, consistent interface applies also to migrating one's workflows:https://www.natemeyvis.com/writing/backward-compatible-improvements/ …

Any tips on the best way to capture fleeting ideas that you want to write about in a lightly organized manner? Is that part of the purpose of your Alfred keystroke log?
I'm a contrarian here (at least with respect to the productivity community, as I know it) in at least two respects: (1) I think notes capture should be domain-specific. Some people are really great with, e.g., Drafts. If that works for them, great. [1/N]

But for me I'd rather choose between Reminders, DevonTHINK (or one of my Shortcuts to it), pen/paper, or whatever, depending on the context and content of the thought. More important than speed or consistency is being able to do it smoothly and get back to whatever else. [2/N]

(2) More contrarian still: I'm not sure that the marginal thought *should* be captured! I've recently gone through a bunch of old notes / journal entries / etc. They're *terrible*! Awful! At least when they're not closely tied to something I was already engaged in. [3/N]
