  1. Smaragd is my writing tool for authors. Imagine if Obsidian and Scrivener had a love child. Lots of features, hopefully few bugs.

    Just created v1.0.0 of Smaragd. Binaries are building as I write this. Notable increment in this version is support for bookmarks. Please take it for a spin and tell me what you think. Especially if you use a Mac or Windows PC.

  3. Patrons got some new roll tables and an #ObsidianMD template for #DnD/#TTRPG NPCs to match the latest article on my blog.

  5. Readwise Reader and Sublime.app are some of the most useful services I subscribe to right now. I am actually a little anxious about Readwise Reader in particular because if it were not around tomorrow I would be pretty upset.

    My highlights/annotations and drill-downs on everything I read in there get retrieved into an #ObsidianMD vault via plugin so I wouldn't lose what I've got, but I don't even know of a single alternative to #ReadwiseReader that exists. #SublimeApp only makes it better.

  7. Finally discovered that the reason I had problems with plugin and active plugin sync with #Obsidian #ObsidianMD particularly when moving onto mobile or iPad was because I hadn't restarted. At least now I know that.

    But surprised there isnt a way for Obsidian to prompt a restart of the app following its start up sync. Especially on mobile devices where the app is likely not closed very often at all.

  8. @4nd3rs Jeg ret vild med Obsidian. Efter mange år med Googles værktøjer fandt jeg #ObsidianMD og efter en del frem og tilbage er jeg nu landet på en opsætning, hvor Obsidian dækker opgavelister, projekter, allehånde noter og et GTD-inspireret dashboard. Så min drømme-kombo har i og for sig materialiseret sig.

  10. I just fired Minimal up, so far, it's looking pretty good. Minimal disruptions to my Captain's Log files, and it didn't make any radical interface changes. #ObsidianMD

  12. Working on my Star Trek Captains Log solo campaign and currently on a Away Mission to ... find new checkbox styles for Obsidian?

  14. Ach, es gibt inzwischen ein externes Plugin für #ObsidianMD, das das ganze Zeugs mit ner #Nextcloud synct. Aufm Desktop unter Linux funzt es bei mir schon gut, mit Android probiere ich später mal.

    Eigentlich ist die Voraussetzung für die Nextcloud 33.x.x, mit meiner (noch!) 32.x.x geht es aber auch, es gibt in den Plugineinstellungen den Hinweis, dass es grundsätzlich funktionieren sollte. Man muss jeden einzelnen Vault dafür einrichten, weil die getrennt voneinander funktionieren.

  16. I've finished my first little rust utility 🤩

    clipmd is a CLI tool that given a blog post URL downloads the blog post and converts it to markdown. While doing so it also downloads all images.

    codeberg.org/britter/clipmd

    I wanted to have this so I can store blog posts in my obsidian vault.

    Rust things still feel quite magical to me, but writing this was a lot of fun!

  18. This is one really (imho) good byproduct of “AI”: learning the virtues of markdown. Systems like Obsidian (which is really just a way to visualize markdown files) are optimized for the way that LLMs operate. Weirdly, and for reasons I don’t fully understand, apparently it’s the way my brain operates too (or can be).

    Using markdown after decades of word processing feels like being show common core math after decades of traditional long division 🤷‍♀️

  20. Today is the day I started (finally!) the work of cataloguing every item I own.

    I’ve looked years for something that would suit what I wanted to do, had even started the process of speccing up an app to develop myself.

    Then yesterday, I came across a #BookTok post that introduced me to Obsidian and it’s *exactly* what I need: items can link together and possess attributes extensibly (is that a word?), and it’s all free and lives locally on my device 🥰

  22. I am *seriously* impressed by the @obsidian web clipper!

    It seamlessly clipped a YouTube video with metadata like title, description, author, etc. and it put the generated transcript into the note *with* chapter headings from the description.

    Already loved Obsidian but this is mind-bogglingly cool to me right now.

  23. Several days of research — messing around with Obsidian.md — and I have discovered the ![[]] embed which answers a bunch of problems I'd had reorganizing my notes.

    Reading the Manual, oddly helpful.

  24. @photovince I figured that it shouldn't be too hard to vibe code a script together that exports the graph, but it looks like there's already a python library to convert an Obsidian graph into a networkx graph: pypi.org/project/obsidiantools/

    Released a year ago and no updates, so I don't know if it still works, tho.

  26. @Elantris Nicht alle Plugins für #ObsidianMD funktionieren auch unter #iOS, aber doch einige. Am besten unter community.obsidian.md/ nachschauen oder einfach ausprobieren.

  28. Just got a Boox Go 10.3 Gen II Lumi (10-inch front-lit eInk tablet, Android OS) and have had fun setting it up. I got it mainly to reduce dependence on (or provide an alternative to) backlit devices like my Mac and iPad, which are starting to give me eyestrain.

    The biggest question is how well will it work for writing (using Obsidian, at least at first). It's not a dealbreaker if it doesn't work well, as it isn't a primary device, but it will be nice if it works at least adequately.

  29. Wednesday marked 2 years of me using Obsidian. This is the state of my vault now. I still get a dopamine kick every time a node appears or a link is created. So calming.

    Anyway. I'm currently at 3015 notes, 12980 links, 664 123 words, and 399.57 MB.

    I guess I need to clean up here and there...

  31. Not sure I'm going to be able to get Obsidian running on this thing 😭

    I hope I'm wrong, but it kind of feels like Postmarket OS on ARM is very limited. Almost everything I might want to run is not available as an Alpine APK, and/or not available for ARM architecture.

    📦 For some reason I can't see a list of apps on the Flathub website filtered by architecture, leading to a frustrating process of trial and error because most flatpaks aren't actually available for this device.

    🖼️ In theory, I should be able to get an AppImage to run, but the Obsidian ARM64 AppImage is not running.

    🐋 Maybe I could get it to work in a Docker container, but I don't know the first thing about Docker so I'm having a hard time understanding how to even get started, and maybe it will be laggy anyway.

    I have Kate running just fine, so maybe I can bolt on some extensions for markdown, ink, etc. that would make this a useful writing device?

    What am I missing? Aren't most of the devices that Postmarket OS is intended for on ARM architecture? What are people actually doing with their devices once pmOS is installed?

  33. Was ist bloß los mit dem #Obsidian Hashtag? Sehe seit Tagen nur noch irgendwelchen Spiele-Kram. Das war früher auch schon immer wieder der Fall, aber derzeit ist es fast unerträglich und wird gefühlt täglich ärger. Zum Glück gibt’s noch #ObsidianMD ;-)

  35. Bisher habe ich doch immer über den mangelnden PDF-Export in Obsidian gemault. Gerade spiele ich mit dem Plugin "Advanced PDF Export" herum. Und was soll ich sagen, ich bin fast am Ziel.
