I'm a long-time user of free/open source software, and write various things for both fun and profit. I don't take myself all that seriously and I do all of my own stunts.
You can find me at these fine establishments on the web: Open Source Musings, The Monday Kickoff, Weekly Musings. and The Plain Text Project.

Good point. It's whatever works for you. While Zim works for me, a text editor works just a bit better. Your mileage (or whatever unit of distance you use) will undoubtedly vary.
Not every solution or path is right for everyone. While I like tools like Zim, I do most of my work with plain text files. With a text editor and Nextcloud, I can sync my work across all my devices.
