The guy makes a lot of great points and we have a lot to figure out about present-day problems of overconsumption, AI slop, closed source, etc as a species.

LLMs are peak overconsumption, they're everywhere I didn’t ask for it.

E.g. Zoom companion??? Why???

I did use to find the idea of an AGI singularity really interesting but current AI is already too destructive in some very miserable ways, and it feels like entertaining a futuristic scenario is in "cosy catastrophe" territory...

Tysm, that's really helpful!

Getting that pen and paper boost but with digital information is goals.

I will perhaps start with one tool, give it a really good chance, and review the options after some use. I found with bullet journaling that while it was helpful right away, it was only with spending some time with it that I could evaluate it fairly.

I'm tempted to start with org mode but my emacs is soooo rusty lol

I have exactly one browser bookmark I use: the zoom link for my therapist.

Sums up my online world. Chaos and therapy!

Whereas, offline I have a neat bullet journal and I collect my thoughts and tasks in a way that feels natural.

Now I think about it, the difference between online and offline for me is stark. So I'll be looking into the link tree systems you suggested - thanks!
