Now, it's all under the notebook umbrella. Seems to be appropriate as it is just my notes after all. I also updated some notes from there. I didn't keep track of what it is this time. Something about more learning notes extracted from my "Learning how to learn" course notes and then some. Lack of time and hurriness just makes it difficult to track but it should be under version control already.

Every copy of the techniques is personalized
Different people have different ways of understanding. Information is only acquired when you try to make sense of it. At the end of the day, you have a workflow that works for you.
From every tips, tricks, and techniques that are echoed throughout the internet, the most effective technique will always end up that you optimized. This can end up as an exercise of creativity (and Creativity does not mean originality). This is especially true for (primarily) solo activities such as Note-taking or learning a new hobby. Whether you've been speedrunning a game, aiming to type 100 words per minute, composing an album, or illustrating a character, you are eventually taking the time to improve it.
An example of it is me hearing about the Roam Research from the trending page from Hacker News. That's where I eventually found out about the Zettelkasten method. I began to like the method as I feel my traditional structured notes lack to become independent notes. Then, I eventually found about org-roam and the rest is history (as of 2021-05-07).
Another example is somebody has used Zettelkasten method in investing by using structure notes. It isn't stated by a Zettelkasten guide anywhere to use it like that but it did worked out for them.
When starting anew, you are curious on getting started. You've read articles, watched videos, and practice the things you just learned. You eventually came to like some of the things you think are cool, you integrated it to your own endeavor, and it is now a part of your workflow — e.g., you began to take speedrun with routes you're comfortable with, you start to optimize your reading while typing, you chose to compose with a modern version of Bach's workflow, you began to change how you make strokes with confidence.
However, with that said, this does not affect how learning is viewed. roam:Learning styles do not exist and has little bearing on the end process of understanding the bigger picture.
