Where do you store your data? and why?
In this digital & data-driven era, almost all the things we do on the internet rely on a platform/database to save our data. Things like personal notes, business, and even project data mostly rely on a database.
I'm wondering where do you store your data? and why choose that database/platform?

MySQL for the app; Trello + Google Sheets for the business :)
I would like to try out Notion though.

Before deciding where the data should be stored, I ask a few questions to myself:
1. Who is the consumer of this data? A technical person or a non-technical person or APIs/Code?
2. What is the nature of this data and how will it be used?
3. How frequently this data would be retrieved?
Once all these basic questions are answered, I decide the datastore for the given data.
It's Notion for my organization. It has enough flexibility to suit all our use cases, and is still quite easy to use. We also use Google Spreadsheets and Google Docs for specific needs. (By the way, they could also be embedded in Notion).
I would like to go with MySQL you can check here the page JewelryNest where they also used it and the reason why people suggest this feature.
Anytype! E2E encrypted & local-first storage means I own it and nobody can read it.
