I am a fan of using Obsidian sync because it lets me have different settings on each device where I use the app, but I recently found out that if you use Syncthing for DIY syncing, you can omit the .obsidian folder, where all the settings are kept and get the same result. #Obsidian #ObsidianMD #PKM

There are so many ways to get web content into Obsidian - the official web clipper, Slurp, Extract URL Content, ReadItLater, MarkDownload, Plugins for Pocket and Instapaper, Apple Shortcuts. Which do you use? #Obsidian #ObsidianMD #PKM

Writing book reviews in Obsidian is made easier with the plugin for Calibre, the free ebook manager. #Obsidian #ObsidianMD #PKM

In Obsidian, I can automatically import every website I bookmark, book I read, TV show or movie I watch, song I listen to, article I mark as "read later", posts from my favorite bloggers, emails from certain senders and daily weather reports. #Obsidian #ObsidianMD #PKM

I just did an analysis of my Obsidian Vault. I have 10, 153 total files. 6,544 are markdown files and 3,609 are attachments, mostly images downloaded as part of clipped web pages. What about you? #Obsidian #ObsidianMD #PKM

One benefit of Obsidian text files is that it's easy to use Python with them - especially with the help pf ChatGPT or Gemini. I've been able to use Python to turn a CSV file into 300 properly formatted Obsidian notes. Have you done anything cool with Pyton and Obsidian? #Obsidian #ObsidianMD #PKM

Q. What's better: digital or analog? This system or that method?

A. Yes

This week I present three tiny PKM-themed principles to follow when the thing you admire, that thing other people are successfully using or doing, isn’t working for you.

With Obsidian, using multi-file search and replace in a text editor like Bbedit or Notepad++ is a huge time saver for editing properties or just notes in general. Much better than trying to use the handicapped plugin that tries to do the same thing. #Obsidian #ObsidianMD #PKM

I'm running the Catalyst release of Obsidian mobile. It feels like that after a long period of stability, it is once again barely functional for me. It quits and restarts multiple times and syncing is extrordinarily slow. I'm on an iPhone Pro Max 15 with almost no plugins. #Obsidian #ObsidianMD #PKM

In anticipation of my apprenticeship/course in software development, I'm looking at note taking apps again. Used Obsidian heavily, but I think it's become too bloated. I liked and wanted to use Emacs, but it's so complicated, it's too much work (to have it sync etc). NotesNook looks good, but when I import my notes, none of the images show. Logseq do Orgmode now, so that's a strong possibility...
Anything else I should look at?

My attempts at using Obsidian as a PDF library were not satisfactory. I found that the Text Extractor plugin created a huge number of files and made Obsidian sluggish. What is a better app to be able to search acrosss multiple PDFs at one time? #Obsidian #ObsidianMD #PKM

Ich sitze gerade an den Vorbereitungen für mein nächstes #Hexxen1733-Abenteuer und will es auch in #ObsidianMD vorbereiten. Da kommt mir die Anleitung von @Just_me gerade recht. Und wow, ist die gut! An dieser Stelle großes Danke!
Vielleicht spiele ich noch mit Plugins zum Thema #pnpde, mal schauen.
