Writers of Lemmy, how do you do outining?
I normally just do a big text document, but I’m starting to think thats not the best method for me. It can be overwhelming to keep nice and linear over time.
Software that’s more advanced than a text editor/word processor has been a big help for me. I’ve tried different apps. Been using Obsidian for over a year now, and I love it. You should find something that works for you, though. It’s a very personal thing. The right one will click with your brain, help you keep things organized, and should feel very easy and intuitive. It should feel fun to use and not a chore. There’s a lot of choices out there like Notion, EverNote, OneNote, Nimbus Notes, MyInfo, and many others.
Don’t forget emacs org-mode! https://orgmode.org
I’ve found WriteMonkey to be helpful for this.
