It might be an idea for us to compile a definitive thread for this, though I appreciate that different people have overlapping but different ways of approaching this. I think it’s coming up as a query more and more as people experiment with Roam and Roam-likes (Logseq, Supernotes, Obsidian etc etc…) but come away looking for something else.
Some solid suggestions in this thread already. And your workflow (capture, author/process, output, archive) sounds workable. As @Andreas_Haberle suggests, it’s probably worth considering whether you’d benefit from atomic note-taking (one idea per note) or more long-form note-taking. That will also likely have a huge impact on the way your archive works and how you’ll interact with it.
Here are a few links from the forum that might offer some further food for thought:
Beyond the forum, you might be interested in having a quick browse of Andy Matuschak’s Evergreen Notes for transferable methodologies/principles for working with your notes in Drafts, if you haven’t already seen it.
And finally, some thoughts on how your personal note-taking might connect with your blogging or other published writing:
