...feel free to reply in this thread.
It would have been nice to copy the survey on the email.
What tools, systems and workflows do you find valuable in your
day-to-day work? In particular I’d be happy getting insights like:

* Any strategy or approach to work, kind of like the example I quoted
  above
* Any scripts and tools that assist you
* Opinionated handling of multiple in-flight series and methods to
  approaching reviews
* Atharva, you are overthinking this! I just use a straightforward {
  editor + MUA + git } stack and go with the flow!
Personally I use mbsync + notmuch + notmuch-vim + vim + msmtp. You can
watch an example session in asciinema.org [1].

This deals with the filtering issue that you talked about in your blog
post, for example one of the latest queries I ran is
"from:felipe subject:mergetool", plus there's tags so I can mark
messages with "inbox", "git", or "to-do".

Of course you can use emacs instead of vim, but I use vim.

Haveing all the feedback readily available helps me address it easily.

For me notmuch is like git for mail.

Cheers.
