Thanks for this. I'll give it a try for sure.

I'm struggling with a good tool that does help me manage my documents and content. There was "Google Desktop" more than a decade back that Google discontinued.

Basically, it used to create a Google like experience locally on my desktop. It used to index my pdfs, email (outlook then!), excels, basically everything I used back then.

Would be grateful to get any recommendations on alternatives for those old enough to know what Google Desktop was! :) (un-minimalistic but neat is also ok)



I would love to have something like google for my local notes! I usually go into these threads with the hopes of finding a tool like that. Something that would go over my plaintext notes (PDF support can be a nice to have too), index them, and allow me to search through them google style.
