introductive note to a topic with backlinks to other notes (subtopics)
a directory with all the subtopics notes, backlink to index note.
I don’t like atomic notes or Zetelkastenn methods enough, but be sure to check these methods. If you’re more visual, then you may use the canva plugin.
The best system is subjective, try different things and find what works for you.
Interesting workflow. I agree the idea of doing the managing/adjusting of metadata later versus at the time of note creation makes it easier to follow the story of whatever you’re reading. I’m also going to try out the hover edit plugin, that looks cool.
Thank you! Now I found, that there is “about” section in settings as well and there is a “check for updates” button (I expected this in help->about). PS: Auto-update setting was on, but my Obsidinan has never auto-updated.
It works beautifully. Realtime sync and conflict resolution between all the devices it’s on (My phone, laptop, and desktop).
I only have mine setup to work on the same network, but you could get it to work over the internet, but that’s much more security & proxy work.
If you wanted to do it all in the cloud. An (over provisioned) VPS, domain, and other configuration would still cost you less than what Obsidian wants for their live sync.
I use Dropbox to sync between my tablet, phone, and laptop. Dropbox let’s you use three devices for free so I don’t pay anything for this solution and everything is backed up to Dropbox. My phone and tablet are both android devices so I use dropsync to actually do the syncing with Dropbox so that they can be accessed via Obsidian.
Their basic (free) plan only allows you to be signed in to 3 devices at a time. So, for example, if I were signed in on my home computer, work computer, and phone (via the Dropbox app), I wouldn’t be able to sign in on my tablet (via the app). I specify the app because I think you could still sign in via the browser and download files, but you wouldn’t be able to automatically sync files to the tablet.
The Dropbox docs say the basic account only gets 2GB, but when I look at my account it’s showing 3.2GB with 65% so I’m not sure what the actual number is. They kind of bury info about the free tier but you can visit the link below.
Those addresses can change arbitrarily often. Depending on what it is that you are actually trying to achieve with measures like this, you could do something that doesn’t involve shoehorning an infrastructure detail into a security policy.
You might be able to simply ask DNS for the current IP addresses. If done regularly, you basically give control over your security perimeter to anyone in a position to influence nameserver responses, which might or might not be something you want.
I’ve a single vault with everything in it - personal journal, research projects, writing projects, random notes, all of it. I separate it all in a folder structure when I can, and use tags for finding the random notes and files otherwise. I’ve got notes from Kindle and Zotero books that get pulled in when necessary, as well as Fleeting Notes. I keep my vault synced on my desktop, laptop, and Android phone via a home-grown GitHub sync script.
I have a large collection of stuff in a OneNote notebook, which stays there until I need it. No sense taking the time to move over stuff I may not need right now.
I do a lot of my writing in it using Longform, as well as just in a note for shorter pieces. Those include some crappy creative writing and slightly less crappy technical articles.
I could probably do this with Dataview, but I would prefer proper wikilinks.
I don’t really understand what you mean by that. Do you mean, that you want to link to the note? Because Dataview can definitely do that. Or are you refering to linking to the headers within a note? I don’t think that this can be done with Dataview.
