When you're trying to learn or think or put ideas "down somewhere" - what actually works for you?

I’ve been working on a visual thinking tool called nodal. It started as a way to explore ideas freely and then turn that thinking into something shareable without rebuilding everything into slides or docs.

I’m curious how other people here handle ideas that don’t start linear. Do you stick with notes? Whiteboard apps? Something else? I'm one of those neurodivergent folks and for me thinking doesn't always go in a straight line, but I do need to keep things organized.

Would love thoughts or feedback - especially from people who’ve felt that “this doesn’t fit in a document” moment.
