I’ve gone through a similar conclusion myself. I used to use daily notes, dataview, and all sorts of Obsidian plugins to manage my tasks.
I find that I generally like to keep my vault to primarily be a “long term storage” tool. I want to use search to find curated info, not littered with to-do notes that don’t add value past it’s due date.
I’ve since migrated my To-Do activities to TickTick, and moved my daily notes to a secondary vault.
By any chance do you know which dev or do you know the handle?
I went to the discord tp check but I’m only able to find the twitter of some emplyees, I’m kind unaware of mastodon accounts and would appreciate if you could check which one there is.
Agree. Well, the great thing is that we don’t have to use it right? So, what shall we use on our vaults on mobile instead? Personally, I only really need the linking and quick open.
I’ve drifted back and forth between keeping tasks in Obsidian via Tasks, and keeping tasks separate in Todoist but connected via the Todoist plugin.
I’ve finally settled for Todoist for now. I think until the Obsidian developers make good on their promise to make Obsidian task management a more comprehensive, native thing; there’s going to be too much friction for me keeping my tasks in Obsidian.
Most of my task capturing is either via email or iOS, neither of which are as easy as Todoist. Additionally, Todoist is much easier to process on mobile.
You do not need to pay anything at all to sync obsidian notes. They’re just .txt files sitting in a folder on your computer - you can sync them any way you’d sync anything else on your pc. I have access to all my notes on every single device I own and I pay $0.
I did a roll-your-own solution with private GitHub repo and a script to push changes and pull them from other machines. I update things on my main desktop, my laptop, and my Android phone this way, no extra costs incurred.
When I’m on mobile, I’m capturing notes, images, links, and thoughts using the Android App and sync them through with Syncthing to my desktop and office laptop.
