I use Obsidian for this exact purpose. Anytime I have an idea, I open up Obsidian, hit ctrl+n for a new note, give it a title, tag it with '#idea', and write whatever I think is nessecary to understand it in the future. Since each idea is a separate file, I won't be tempted to worry about ordering. Obsidian also lets me link related ideas together and it's easy to find an idea again in the future and add some notes to it.Like the author, I've found that writing down my ideas greatly increases the amount/frequency of new ideas I have. I went from having a decent new idea maybe once a week to now having multiple decent new ideas a day. The problem now is focusing on one idea at a time without getting distracted by all the shiny new ideas.
