ObsidianA few of you have shared and talked about this before… I believe @carsten@yarn.zn80.net and @abucci@anthony.buc.ci .. How do you use this? What’s the best way to get started? What habits do you create around this tool? Does it help you significantly? 🤔 – Thinking about using it work at my new job… 🤔
@prologic@twtxt.net I use it as a glorified notepad with Markdown support.
The search capabilities are great. It’s faster that Notion (which I disliked very soon), more convenient than taking notes with a code editor, since it manages the folder structure and links between files.
Syncing notes between Android and PC is quick. Sadly I had problems Syncing images, with Google Drive, so I only use it for texts.
I’ve heard it’s an amazing tool for https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zettelkasten
@prologic@twtxt.net I didn’t write about how to get started…
I guess I haven’t learned it yet, sorry 😅
The first steps are installing it, deciding if you want to pay for the sync between devices, or use a free alternative (I use Google Drive 😬), installing Omnisearch, and typing notes!
@prologic@twtxt.net Hmm, I’m seeing that on iOS you have a very limited access to the file system.
On Android you can sync with many tools, SSH, Dropbox, Google Drive…
Damn ! sorry mate 🫤
could you try the following? https://help.obsidian.md/Getting+started/Sync+your+notes+across+devices#Sync+your+notes+on+iPhone+and+iPad
@abucci@anthony.buc.ci it’s called iOS… 🤔
I haven’t used it since version 10, so I don’t know if in current versions that has changed.
For instance it happens the same Syncing music. That’s why I started using Spotify Premium, it was the only convenient way I found to download music when I traveled.
I think iCloud has improved, but that’s the only way I know of syncing a limited file system.
researching quickly on this, I found that you can open files from Dropbox, but I think apps can’t see files between them. I don’t have a current device to test.
