What a frightening coincidence. I came to a similar conclusion an hour ago when I've been reworking my own system.
Mine is slightly different. I use two separate browsers, one (firefox) for project/hobby focus and the other (chrome) for anything not related to project/hobby. I'm using different twitter, youtube, gmail, reddit, etc. accounts for each browser so I can still have the benefits from cookies.
Example: Using separate youtube accounts keeps programming recommendations separate from 3D modeling recommendations.
My firefox bookmark hierarchy became too large so I now throw it in a huge text file and custom tag them with metadata (I'm faster with my editor). I'll also be dumping any firefox bookmarks into a one/two level hierarchy and rely entirely on tags and the search bar, and my big text file of bookmarks.
I too use pen and paper and port them to my digital notebook. I make sure the notes are properly time stamped and contains enough information to keyword search.
Example: 2021-06-26_Blender_BlenderGuru_01.md
I use drawing programs to draw out any ideas. Some benefits are resizable canvas (if I ran out of space on paper I couldn't just resize it) and layers to organize and modify. I'm using clip studio paint because I also draw, but any drawing program like Krita would suffice.
One thing I learned was to keep information individually identifiable at all cost. I'll try to shove as much information in one line like filename or text line to maximize my search potential.
