1. restic

   Fast, secure, efficient backup program

   

   I religiously use Google contacts. It's the simplest way to keep people contacts up to date on Android.

   I archive all important documents in specific folders by subject and date. This is backed up to back blaze with restic. https://restic.net/

   I use https://ente.io for pictures. I convinced my wife to use it, and she agreed to auto share her photos so I don't nag her for copies. It had simple import from Facebook and Google.

   I also keep extensive journals, which really helps to tie it all together. I can basically grep for hangouts, conversations, etc.

   I also separate work journal from personal, and have essentially a journal for each project. https://jodavaho.io/tags/bullet-journal.html for how.

   I religiously use Google calendar for all plans, you can easily search it for past events to get dates.

   I also use monicahq for some notes about things I should remember about people but the habit never stuck.
