Insight or Idea
Test note We create and consume notes in different ways. Why do we take notes? This will be different for everyone but a few common reasons are: recall, discovery of new ideas, connections, helping you think about content you consume, and creating content.
Fundamentally you will always have an easier time creating notes one way and consuming them another way. This isn’t new information this is why note taking systems and tools emerge. Obsidian is a famous tool for this as it simplifies connecting disparate ideas in the hopes of emerging content, connections, and recall
The problem is obsidian doesn’t do that for you, it can’t. It provides tools to enable this like connections, tagging, filters, grouping, embedding and so on. Ideally once done, it should be quite easy to go back through your notes.

They also require attentiveness and discipline in a single framework. In my experience the way you think or like to read changes not only over time but from subject to subject making this inherently unsustainable unless you dedicate massive amounts of time to organization alone.
Due to this many note taking solutions fail.
