Filipe, I just downloaded Obsidian yesterday and am trying to use it. It is definitely an under performer when it comes to documentation. This particular video has more information than all the others I have watched put together! It is really helpful that you explain which buttons or keys are used for each operation inside the program--several other so-called Youtubers can't be bothered to explain what they are doing, yet claim to be experts.

[adamyork]

I am just starting with Obsidian. There are a lot of videos out there, but some of them are quite long. Frankly, yours is one of the best starter videos I have seen. Allows me to hit the ground running! Thank you, and you gained a subscription.

[niharikamukherjee]

As a beginner, this is exactly the video I needed to get around the app with ease! Thank you so much for this fantastic video!

[tsentenari]

This answered a whole number of questions that I had written down for myself for further clarification. ---- Some of my favorite tips: The "query magic" where all notes with a certain tag automatically appear in a new note. Coloring different types of Notes by using groups. Multiple Cursors. Also the iframe tip, which I just discoverd minutes before watching this video. --- Such a cool video! Thank you so much again

[mkmousa]

You've nailed it, man! Loved your thorough explaination yet quick and light. I needed your tutorial for so long, now I can rest in peace 😅

[rafaelnagel]

Que legal ver um BR fazendo vídeo em inglês, ainda mais sobre o Obsidian. Sucesso!

[veganforlife]

Excellent video. It GREATLY shortened the time to learn the program. Very well done. Thank you.

[chaitanyaj]

The best video for an Obsidian-rookie. Thankyou so much for this bruh!🙂

Obsessed with Obsidian!

[indubhardwaj]

The way you explained it all in just 24 minutes is insane.
Thanks🙏

[anncheng]

I was struggling to find a productivity/knowledge management system; after watching numerous tutorials, it was Filipe's video that helped me decide that I will give Obsidian a try, and then this tutorial here again takes away the worry of a beginner and make it super handy to follow and apply. I was hesitant about using Obsidian because it looked like a cool tool for hard-core programmers. But now I know that I too, can create a second brain on Obsidian, so big thanks to Felipe! Will keep following for more of Felipe's videos!

[MikeLisii]

Awesome video. I watched it 3 times already and I think I will have to rewatch it later once I will get more used to Obsidian. Please consider making another one with more useful tips about Obsidian. Thank you!!!

[vaisakh_km]

I never thought i will get a good tutorial that does not have nonsence like "why you should take notes" and etc....

But here we go🤩
Perfect phase! Perfect explanations! Perfect tips!
I took all these as notes in obsidian...😅

Really thanks for grate tutorial....

[pdraskov]

Thanks for doing this. It is clear that it was a lot of work. It is concise and really helpful. Great work - thank you.

[lucyhardman]

Great video! I'm new to Obsidian and you've shown me tons of things I didn't know I could do with it. Very concise and easy to watch - thanks!

[SigKappel]

That was super helpful Filipe! up and down hotkeys, query, home note, outline, and iframes is what I started using immediately.

[carrieben-yisrael]

Bless you! I created and starred this video and time stamps in my vault, while watching the video. It was just what I needed. THANK YOU!!

[lovelyappletv]

This is the Obsidian tutorial video I was looking for. Superbly done. Thanks very much.

[filsmartins]

Saved for future reference. Been playing around obsidian a bit over a week now and learned some new tricks with this video. Thank you!

[ammygamer]

I appreciate this kind of video format. I'm fortunate enough to absorb information quickly, so most of the time I just need short direct instructions to understand a software. While I'm thankful that there are many kinds of tutorials everywhere for all kinds of people, it is very nice to find a straightforward guide instead of skimming through lengthy videos for the actually important bits.
