With so much note taking apps nowadays, I can’t understand why does anyone still write notes with pen and paper. You need to bring the notepad, book or that paper to retrieve that information, and most of the time you don’t have it in hand. While my phone almost always reachable and you carry when you go out. For those still like to do handwriting, there’s many app does that and they can even convert it to text notes.

So, if you still write notes with pen and paper, why?

    Often times I keep a notepad beside me. It is my preferred way to store ridiculous length passwords for stuff I care about. I’m usually on a laptop and I may switch it up and use another device to look up stuff. I don’t mix my workstation with socials or shopping. Those three activities are all done on different devices, with different networks. So I don’t care too much about what can be scaped from here. I don’t see value in a small amount of convenience exchanged for connecting my devices, I’d rather just jot down a note and look up the item when I need it.
