Because Obsidian is sometimes better than Notion
- Obsidian is fast. Linking between things in Obsidian is CRAZY fast.
- Unlinked mentions is a great feature
- The extensibility of Obsidian is great. If you don’t like how it looks or works, you can usually change it to make it that way.
- Customizable menus and hot keys are dope
- The plugins ecosystem is crazy
- Themes and custom CSS
- The security of having a local copy of your notes is great. Being able to create zipped “for emergencies” copies is great
- Local files open up the ability to use other applications/code in conjunction with Obisidian
- Used NodeJS + JavaScript to mass edit notes
- Also used VSCode for global find/replace
- Built-in
tagsupport is nice, rather than hacking them - You can use Obsidian URIs to do things from outside obsidian, like link to ^abcde
Callouts
Callouts aren’t bad, either! Especially these collapsible ones.
