I know this is not Linkedin, but I’m curious: what are the tools that help your personal #productivity the most?

[.] What works for me:

+] this basic pomodoro from @clive: http://text-pomodoro.glitch.me/ when I really need to focus

+] Zotero as a reference manager: https://www.zotero.org/, I would be lost without it

+] Github (desktop): my coding became much more focused, organized and reusable thanks to it: https://desktop.github.com/

+] GanttProject to realize how little time I have left… : https://www.ganttproject.biz/#is-easy

[.] What I tried but didn’t work for me:

-] Tasks “manager”: tried Obsidian, One Note, Google Keep, Notebook… I can’t seem to find The One that works for me (and syncs with my laptop & phone). Taking suggestions!

-] Something to read and annotate pdfs: I got a Remarkable2 tablet, and then an Onyx Boox Note Air 2, and they’re just too slow and do not easily sync with my laptop and Zotero. For the most important papers I have to say I might prefer paper.. Also taking suggestions for this.

Edit: trying to make the bullet points not disappear in #IceCubes is still hard
