I like Obsidian on mobile, so I'm not really using it, but I found the "Zettel Notes"[1] app to be a good markdown editor for Android also. [1]: https://www.zettelnotes.com/

The main problem I have with using different Vaults at the same time is that they all share the same taskbar icon. For syncing you can sync your files however you want. I mostly use one Vault for my setup, then things like linking and searc

I mean, that kinda was the point of my post, you really don't have to use all of the features! No person does actually.

Almost all ways to sync Obsidian has a problem with multiple people editing the same file. Although there are some tools for better collaboration, but if it's just for one particular file it might be a bit "overkill". But to

I also much rather use [[links]] for organization instead of #tags. I touched a bit on this in the bottom-up / smart notes section.

Not defending some of the not that amazing Obsidian courses or similar out there, but it sounds like you already have a lot of pre-existing knowledge and an approach that works for you, so as I said in the post, keep using that! You know ab

I would also love better Git support, especially syncing content from my Android phone to a GitHub repository, so faar it never worked well, I tried a few solutions here but wasn't satisfied with any of them.

$50 is a high price to ask, no? And I just looked it up, it's actually even more than that. Consider having an account for each common social media platform, then multiply that for every project, that grows quickly.

I think the same way, I'd love a social media management tool, all of the ones I found were insanely expensive or not usable / had horrible usability issues. Pitching a product by telling me it's built quickly with AI does th

I mean, there's a fundamental missing understanding of how to build a coherent design, then there's also the problem of just poor implementation such as the animations. The Lua site has some problems as well, like an uncessary bor

Please share what you created! I think people have very different views for what is a good interface, or a tolerable one. I think as a front-end developer and designer I notice a lot of problems most people don't care about.

Wouldn't Astro work great here though? Just a static sites without JavaScript but you still get some nice things like scoped CSS, components and being able to use markdown for blog posts.

Yes that is fair, I adjusted and simplified the system for my usage. I didn't include any of the note "phases" / transitions, so e.g. no fleeting notes.

On a different note, the website feels a bit quickly AI generated just made to promote this desktopcommander app? Edit: Oh, I actually just found the comment from the author here, sounds like AI slop.

One of the problems with YouTube seach is that they also stop showing you what you searched for after a couple of videos, instead you get the same crap you find on the homepage, which is bewildering.

I would be careful with calling that kind of design function over style. Modern UI design has its merits. But yes, good designs are not flashy, e.g. I love the design of Astro Starlight ( https://starlight.astro.build/ ), a

Any plans on adding a way to filter out "lower quality" posts which usually dominate chronologically sorted post lists? And, possibly a way to filter type of content more in-depth than just one category?
