does anyone actually use organization apps (Obsidian, Notion, etc) to organize research and creative work in a useful way?

or is this just for guys who use words like "vertical integration" and "capital expansion" ?

Never thought about it this way, but obviously it's true. Please Mr. Ocean save us all. You alone have the power.

everything has sucked since Frank Ocean put out a record.
