Folgezettel makes you consider your new notes more carefully

Folgezettel makes you consider your new notes more carefully.

so too is folgezettel a form of “eufriction,” a slowing down to better engage with the work in front of you. Having to manually apply alphanumeric IDs to notes decelerates the note-making process just enough to force you to think about what you’re doing. It builds good habits. It strengthens mental connections. It’s the kind of friction needed to help those who tend to dump links in their notes without taking the time to convey why they’ve done so
