Hello people :) especially those who love to read and take notes.
I love reading guides / other books where I want to memorise things more long term. However I haven't found a mechanism yet on how to take notes. Do you guys use an ipad or similar? I tried to take notes w/ pen&pencil however fail constantly. Is there an e-solution you found that helps you oversee book notes? The traditional pen & pencil doesn't work but maybe there is something where i can use a e-pen?

What are you reading on? The kindle app lets you add highlights and notes in the text itself and you can look at them all together by viewing ‘annotations’. For pdfs, decks etc, I like to upload them to Miro and just pop in sticky notes on the margins

I have always taken notes with pen and paper OP I have just found that is what works best for me and my brain. But there are plenty of apps on an Ipad or even a kindle that would alow you to do the same thing but in electronic form.
