Simple for me too! I use Google Tasks (RIP Reminders but Tasks is already better) just out of ease. It's right there on my phone and if something pops into my head, I can just call out to Google Assistant to add it to the list for x day/time.

I actually love OneNote - I use it predominantly at work to organise and info dump EVERYTHING. We have pretty strict IT policy though so it's really my only option. I wish the phone app was easier to navigate, as I've not found a reliable notes app on Android (I have so much stuff split across multiple notes apps that I just kinda gave up).

I love hearing that other people prefer a simple approach. All too often people recommend overly complex systems that could be daunting to someone who’s looking for help. Start off simple and then add complexity if you need it.

I, too, only have that option at work. There isn’t anything inherently wrong with OneNote, but I think it’s a bit too busy for me. As I get older and understand my ADHD and Autism more, I find that a minimalist approach helps me remain productive.
