Hey wait. I do this and I'm not...
... Oh. Never mind.
why do i relate to like every adhd meme?
This is great. I'm saving this.
Updated a browser and lost ten years of plans and designs
I leave a bunch of of tabs on my phone web browser until i can't take anymore (around 15/20 tabs) then i organize everything with bookmarks so i can, maybe, some day, who knows, if i feel like it and the planets align, i might take a look on them, just maybe
This is exactly what I do too! Bookmarks felt too hidden and easily forgotten so I now have folders upon folders of tabs I mean to get back to 💀
This is part of why I self-host things. I have a lot of projects and project ideas, and Trello - while great for what it is - is slowly becoming enshittified, so I run a Planka instance instead. I also have a Nextcloud instance, Immich for photos, and a bunch of other things that help me stay organized. It took me a decade to figure out how to organize my homelab services and hardware, but now I have it set so all I need to do is check github/gitlab for updates and breaking changes for any particular service, log into any of my Dockge instances (all 4 of them are linked), and click the "update" button in the relevant stack. Yes, I know there are automations for that, too. One thing at a time.
Can't count the number of ideas I've lost simply because I can't remember to jot it down when it hits
F u four calling me out like that but also thank you for validating my feelings.
I do create screenshots and screen cuts using PickPick and auto-save turned on - it is better than any AI bases self-survivalence tool
Hmm I'll take note of this for later
I just screenshotted this.
I'm kinda weird in that I'm very text-oriented rather than visual-oriented, and this even results in a preference for keyboard over mouse, if I can't hotkey a thing by god I will go get a tool that will let me hotkey it, etc. As such, I type everything up in a notes app that syncs between my phone and PC. Also, while I do sometimes bookmark things, I often forget that I have so most things I find again just by remembering what I searched for last time when I find it.
every dang bumper sticker ever. I feel like if people see me they'll just be happy it's appreciated
I always screenshot a million things on my phone and then purge them all at once one day without even looking.
Oh see, I just back them up to my desktop. Where they sit. Just in case. I don't have a problem, I swear.
Me when I try to put all my reaction pics in one folder
Why are you like this?!
Sop assaulting my personality.
I have many notebooks. They range from pocket sized to 8" x 5" when they're for ideas. I'll occasionally use larger ones for other things, but I want to take down my thoughts quickly, and I really only want the essence of them, so I write in references to other things, images, and a short phrase to title it for context
The nice thing is I've got almost 2 decades of notebooks like this - they're scattered all through my things, basically by era.
And because of that, I don't need to fill or organize notebooks - every few years I'll see one I like and make it the idea book
I've gone through like 10x as many for work, but I just throw those away when they're full
what's worse is when it's a store you wanna check out but don't want the advertisement to get credit, and when you finally DO remember to check it out, the store is gone cause it was a scam all along
