perhaps it's more accurate to call personal notes an ecosystem rather than a garden — the most memetic notes survive

if a note is memetic enough it spreads to other notes as a link... if a note is never linked from/to it slowly becomes extinct

Love this framing

Also makes it easier to let go of notes that just aren’t that memetic / connective to others

But I would also like help to find notes I forgot, because sometimes I just forget

Notes evolve like an ecosystem, where links ensure survival.
