Gonna be honest, my productivity app once upon a time was unsaved sublime text documents

You mean it hasn’t been that way for the last 14 years and it hasn’t survived 5 different computer changes and a dozen or so OS migrations and you don’t still have a tiny document with “fun business ideas” to start that company with your fresh out of college gang right next to that “how to organize a great 10 year reunion” sheet from 3 years ago?

Must be a me thing, then.

My productivity app at work was Notepad++

I have seen colleagues using an almost append only txt file with notepad.exe. It worked for them I guess, but there were some features I could not live without on Notepad++

Mine is the same, but unsaved files in Notepad++

For me it often still is.. at least when I'm working alone on something / no collaboration needed. Every time I try something else I revert back to this, although sometimes I do save the files, eventually.

My productivity app is a sketchbook and a pencil, if anyone knows what those are.
