📝 The ONLY Note-Taking App You'll Ever Need

Published 2 months ago • 1 min read

Hey,

If you’re wondering what the best note-taking app for your Mac is, I’m going to save you the search.

For years, I bounced between every productivity tool on the market (Apple Notes, Bear, Evernote, Notion) you name it.

But today, Obsidian is the only app I use.

I now run my entire life through Obsidian. It’s my planner, my professional wiki, my journal, and my "second brain."

It's full open-source, free, and it can connect to Claude Desktop via MCP which is freakin' awesome.

Here's how I'm using it to basically run my life, my business, my projects, and literally everything in between.

Peace.

Richard

My Current Tool Stack 🛠️

You don’t need a hundred tools to run a successful project, just the right ones.

Here's what I currently use in my day-to-day tech stack:

✅ ConvertKit (Kit): This is my go-to email marketing platform. I use it on all my major projects (including this one).

✅ Unbounce: For landing pages and converting social media traffic into email subscribers. It's cost effective and easy to use.

✅ Manychat: Automates lead-gen with DMs on Instagram, FB and TikTok. Not essential, but very powerful.

✅ Squarespace: Great for quick website builds when Wordpress isn't necessary. Comes with built-in e-commerce and newsletter functionality too.

That's all for the core stuff, you can find a complete list of all the tools I recommend here.

Forget The Pixel 10a, Get This Phone Instead...

GD Tech Nerds. While the tech world is currently obsessed with the brand-new Pixel 10a (which just landed last month) and its fancy flush-back design, I have an alternative to present you... If you want the “thickest slice of value” in the smartphone market right now, you need to look at the Pixel 8a. Why? The main reason is that you can now pick one up for just $270 which is frankly batsh*t crazy. The other big reason? It'll get Android updates until 2031. Yeah, that makes it one of the best...
