I use bookworm.nz to track the books I've read, am currently reading, and want to read. I also have a spread sheet with the same data (though it goes back further, because that's how I started).

I'm not big on note taking, but when I do I normally create a page in my personal wiki.

I use Obsidian to track my list and make notes where I feel notes are a good idea.

I've heard good things about Obsidian, but while I've opened and played with it there hasn't really been much to pull me into it.

Other than the wiki, I use Joplin for day to day notes, which serves it's purpose and syncs easily with Nextcloud.

I like that Obsidian has lots of interesting addons but all the files are just markdown at the end of the day. You can view them in a standard text editor.

My vault syncs via Syncthing - which is just awesome.

Joplin is all markdown too. I guess I'd need to play with Obsidian's addons to see what might make the killer feature for me, but it just seems easier to stick with Joplin. I don't even use it all that much.

There are a bunch of cool features, but the killer feature is the tasks addon, so useful

I use the tasks.org app for tasks, so I probably wouldn't find it as useful!

I also try to use open source software where possible, and Joplin and Tasks.org do the job so have won out for now.
