seeing that sql query turning into a full board is so satifying

Icon Folder has been renamed Iconize and supports adding icons to files, folders, notes, etc. Annotator is pretty nice for highlighting and annotating PDFs & ePub documents.

I switched to Obsidian from Evernote after the insane price hike and haven't looked back!
At first I was a bit lost, as I kept trying to use Obsidian like Evernote, until I slowly began to learn how to actually use Obsidian
Fast forward a few months later and I am so glad I made the switch - Obsidian is everything Evernote isn't and so much more!

For those who have to snync Obsidian between Linux, Windows and Android, I can recommend syncthing.

I neglected my Obsidian setup the last months. Your video inspired me, to start using it regularly again. As other comments mentioned, syncing is a crucial part of my setup because I use(d) it with multiple devices and some parts with other people as well. Think, I will set up syncthing on my server and do some syncing magic with that. Thank you for the video, Christian!

Don't know if youre about to mention this. With MacGPT and an OpenAI API Key, you can write a prompt directly into obsidian and also get the response directly to obsidian. Depending on your workflow, this can be amazing.

Dataview: you can also use it to bring formulas in from other files.

Example: I have one file for each group of formulas I’m using. They rely on several document variables and one imported variable (the calculation). That way I just need to have the values in the frontmatter, read the variable value from the formula document and that’s it. Each time I use the new variable in the document, I get the calculated result. Also works with in-document variables, you just have to prep your formulas accordingly. So you only need to write (and modify) a formula once and keep using it on a whole lot of documents.

I love Obsidian, your previous video actually made me aware of it. Thanks for the plugin showcase as i will definitely use these plugins!

I love obsidian. I paid for the sync feature. As much as I don’t mind putting something together figured it was easier lol. One huge thing I use this for is taking YouTube notes. I use TubersLab and i download the obsidian format of the notes and put it inside my vault. But I have been using Readwise too. right now I have TubersLab sync to Readwise then have that sync to obsidian and blam it’s awesome!!

I think I found out about obsidian on your channel in the past... I had been looking for a replacement for my tech wiki stuff for ages.. I have never looked back.. Obsidian is just simply amazing and some of the addons, plugins make it incredible...

[gamerscodex]

long time user of Obsidian here, these are some great plugins, thank you for sharing!

I got a few nice tools: mindmap (to create a mind map from a note), auto note mover (can move notes to folder if it contains a tag), there also is canvas (similar to ExcaliDraw but a core plugin)

[jonathanchevallier]

Thank you for this selection of plugins.

Dataview is what convinced me to use obsidian. It pretty much replaced my todo app and notion setup. When I create a document in obsidian I include tasks I need to preform for this document. With dataview I've created a canvas which aggregates all the tasks from thes documents which provides me a total overview of what needs to be done. No more elaborate explainations in a tasks to remind me what I was thinking about. Clicking on the tasks brings me to the relevant context.

Als jemand, der fast nie Noten schreibe, glaube ich eigentlich, dass Obsidian mir total nützlich wird! Sie haben mich überzeugt. 🎉

(Ich bin Englander und lerne Deutsch. Vielleicht für Deutsch lernen soll ich Obsidian benutzen 😅)

Thank you so much for doing this. I recently started using obsidian and love it.

[zenmushie]

Great video - Mermaid is pretty awesome for making graphs and stuff as well.

Dickes Danke für die Empfehlung von QuickAdd. Das ist ja richtig praktisch.

[leomcfadyen]

[BryanJenks]
