You forgot: * Google Basically I give everything over to them and rely on their suite of services. It has worked out really well actually. And in fact isn't it their mission to organize the world's information?
Honestly, I just keep everything in a journal. I have a folder called "daypages" in my dropbox. Each day in my life becomes a file in this folder. Today's is "daypages/2016-10-26.org" That's about it. I don't really organize by project much. Each day typically covers the tasks that I intend to get done that day, along with places I've been / friends I've met. The occasional tearful journal entry punctuates the otherw…
Supplemented by
* Dropbox, for text files and code. To be replaced.
* recently, Google Docs, used as an ad-hoc wiki.
* Google keep for random 'check this out later' notes
* Pinboard, for web bookmarks.
I'm piggy backing on this. I still have found my holy grail : a kind of knowledge management software where I could just stuff things probably with tags. Not only links (I have pinboard for that) but ideas, snippets of knowledge etc. This would be online (not necessarily self-hosted) and I'm willing to pay for that. Accessible via smartphones and potentially with an email gateway would be great. I don't think mindmap…
I hope to release TableTops next year. It's a non-linear graphical (in two senses of the word) knowledge management software that stores universal links to all of your stuff, local and in the cloud. It also does notes, tags, and script nodes (which can for example be used as alarms / reminders) and represents EVERYTHING as a great big graph. The main UI element is a TableTop, which is also just a node in the graph th…
Out of curiosity, is anyone interested in some sort of app for this purpose? Like, organizing references to all your other data, thoughts, relationships. I'm not sure how it would work - just thinking about it right now.

Org-Mode is the one thing that makes me want to move from vim to emacs.. but I just don't feel like investing the time in getting proficient with emacs at this stage.
For side-projects kanban boards, I just use Gitlab issues' kanban view.
For personal life, I have lots of old things in mails in Gmail (also notes in mails to self), scan paper administration type things and put them in a password protected ZIP in Dropbox, plan books to read on Goodreads, store contact info on my phone, chess games in Scid and other than that I rely on memory.
