The Farcaster community tipped me off to Readwise earlier this year, and for a few months, reviewing highlights from prior reads became an early-morning routine.
It's an excellent product that I heartily recommend if you read / annotate a lot of ebooks, and also like to save articles to be read later. (Their Reader is great).
However, I am not one of those people.
Since I read so few ebooks, the app surfaced the same quotes from a small, tired collection of titles, most of which I'd checked out from the library.
And despite the promise of annotating articles for future reference, I had to declare Reader bankruptcy. Hundreds of articles lay unread in the inbox, like an ever-growing collection of New Yorker issues.
Alas, I've given up on this form of knowledge management and am embracing the comfort of pen and paper.
