Have you ever come across some sort of container or organizer for anything that ended up being strangely useful? (lemmy.world)

I'm not a natural organizer, but I'm starting to appreciate things that help me organize as I get older.

Have any of you run into some sort of widget or gadget or box or even app that you almost brushed off, but then started using it and now it's the neatest thing ever?

I guess I'm looking for things you almost wrote off as boring-as-shit before you used it and were converted.

Because of browser security I think TiddlyWiki has gotten a bit hard to use. 10 yrs ago I could write and update files without any security popups or cli flags or admin permissions.

Only in single file mode (meaning opening the HTML as a file:// URL, making changes, and saving it again). Hosting it on a server, desktop, or raspberry pi with node is ridiculously simple these days. It's completely backwards compatible, but TW5 changed the architecture quite a bit. You can drop that 10 year old file into a blank node instance, and it comes out perfectly.
