> This "it has to be handwritten" stuff is nonsense. Do that if you enjoy it, but also you should acknowledge the downsides to it.

From the submission:

"Should you use one?

Maybe! I can't answer that for you. "

There is a middle ground. Write on paper on the spot. Transcribe to digital form later. I've been doing it for many years. Painful, but now I just get an LLM to OCR my handwriting.

And oh, definitely - for me the brain works differently while typing vs handwriting.
