I thought so too, but then I noticed I was searching the internet for the same things over and over again. (Or asking it from GPT).
Then I started writing stuff down as I searched it, with a sentence or two of my own text + a few tags.
Now I can find stuff directly from Obsidian (or more like from the set of markdown files on my drive) instead of having to sweep the internet _again_ for the same thing.
- eternityforest 3y agoThat really belongs in the browser I think. Ideally we could just highlight the info we want to save, type a note, and the whole page gets saved offline as plain HTML, along with a markdown file that points to it. Pocket is about as close as it gets it seems...
- machomaster 3y agoYou can use the combination of SingleFile ( https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/SingleFile/ https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/SingleFile/) and Obsidian/Templater for that.
