> [!tldr] For me the restrictions of plaintext function similarly to the restrictions of pen & paper One of the genuine benefits of [[Bullet Journaling|Bullet Journal]]s, [[The Bullet Journal Method]], the [[Medium Method]] is the [[Desired Difficulty]] of writing things by hand. **I am a huge believer in this benefit**. I have found that the restrictions that come with [[Plaintext]], in particular [[Obsidian]][^1] , are similar to what I find with writing things by hand. I write more slowly. I don't copy/paste stuff. The merits of bullet migration seem similar to the benefits you'd get if you were to commit to [[todo.txt]]. (which I don't). **** # More ## Source - self [^1]: king of plaintext [[Notetaking App Types]]
