Looking for that one “perfect” app

Advice needed

I’ve been searching and reading here all morning.

I am looking for an app to manage all of my chaotic thoughts. I am intrigued by ones with AI and would love something that could also help me manage my priorities and time.

The gist of my notes are to do lists (that rarely get done and/or stress me out), home project ideas, garden planning and design with very poorly executed Apple Notes drawings, lists of accounts, links to stuff I never look at again, etc.

Parameters:
Personal use
Apple compatible
Nothing too overwhelming

Over the years I have tried:
Apple Notes (still my go to but “clean up notes” is always on my to do list)
Google Docs/Sheets
Notion (I want to like it but I can’t get past the feeling that I have to build it out perfectly to use it)
Evernote (it’s been years)
Craft (seemed like a good option but never got into it, now it’s paid?)
