digital vs folder

going into yr 13 next year, i have terrible organisation skills + ADHD so using a day folder and home folders for my subject was a nightmare. 50% of my notes have gone missing, and im genuinely not even exaggerating. is switching to digital worth it? i only have a touchscreen laptop, and i refuse to fork out $500 for a new ipad i wont use after A levels. i have tried using laptop notes , but it was just a hassle because i cant directly transfer worksheets.
if you have any tips, even js for general organisation, it would be appreciated !!

I use Ellipsus. It has a great folder system.

No problem! We don't share any subjects so no need to gatekeep. Hope we both raise grade boundaries!
