My productivity app is a never-ending .txt file
I love the idea of using plain text files for note taking and task tracking. As others have commented on specific tools and workflows that make this easy for them to stick with, I thought I'd add mine. I use textnote [0], which is a tool I built for exactly this workflow but is hopefully flexible enough to accommodate many of the similar processes mentioned here. It simply opens a plain text file in your terminal and provides lightweight tooling for tracking by date and rolling up previous notes into archives if desired.
Thanks for opening another great discussion of plain text note taking as a productivity tool!

My productivity app is a never-ending .txt file
I use the same system but with highlighting/formatting of https://xit.jotaen.net
I even learn how to create a plugin for the IntelliJ IDEA and created one for highlighting this format (love idea hotkeys and workflow).

Show HN: Tuido, a Terminal Todo List
This is my personal todo app, which I made a while back after the original https://xit.jotaen.net/ post. tuido is written in go, with the bubbletea tui framework.
My daily workflow involves creating YYYY-MM-DD.md and taking notes, many of which are effectively low-level todos that fall below the threshold for more public or involved issue trackers. Problem was that these half-hazard todos weren't tracked at all.
After seeing the [x]it spec, it seemed clear that a little tooling could fix this. I've been reasonably happy with it.

A plain-text file format for todos and check lists
There currently are a bunch of editor plugins and one CLI tool. You find a collection of tools (all third-party) linked from the project website: https://xit.jotaen.net
