Collaboration Frustration

Er, Craft can indeed move blocks around, either by dragging and dropping (hover over a block, you’ll see a “handle” on the left-hand side) or using keyboard shortcuts (Option+Command...
Coppice

Ah, I remember Coppice! I was profoundly impressed by it when it first appeared, but didn’t go ahead and subscribe simply because it’s uniplatform (Mac only).
But what a great piece of so...

Wow, Neville, Clibu Notes is turning into a very impressive piece of software.
I have a busy CRIMPing schedule ;-), but I’m going to try it out a.s.a.p.

I’ve had exactly the same issue. I’ve now refined my list of Obsidian plugins to a bare minimum, which meets pretty well all my needs, but I prefer to manage my tasks using another system,...

There are back/forward arrows in the top (menu) bar which allow you to move back/forward through the pages you’ve been viewing.

Sure. I’ve switched over to the dedicated thread!
Crimping as nihilism

Very nicely put. Shows a certain desire to avoid examining the nature of CRIMPing too closely, but hey, we all understand ;-)

After musing further on this alarming article (wow, what a lot of detailed breakdowns!), I must disagree with the author’s simplistic conclusion.
One of the main reasons I think we all CRIMP is...

Absolutely! I utterly repudiate the idea that I’m a nihilist. And yet I have just spent a couple of hours wrestling with the impressive but somewhat erudite Anytype (multi-platform, open-source,...

Oh wow, that’s good news!

MyInfo Is My Choice

Interesting – reminiscent (in general features) of MacJournal, also an oldie but goldie. But the tagging is much more sophisticated.

Amplenote

Heh, there’s an Obsidian plug-in which allows you to do the same thing (can’t remember offhand what it’s called).

Apple Notes Has Folding

A quick test (with all “locked” notes unlocked) showed that Exporter does still work. It successfully exported 814 of my 820 notes, and put the 6 others in a “Failed Exports” f...
Great news, Maurizio! Your industry and the steady evolution of Zavala do you credit!
Cheers!

Apple Notes Has Folding

Ah. Also worth mentioning Obsidian’s “Importer” plugin, which does a fairly good job.
Apple Notes Has Folding

Yes, I find Time Machine pretty much hopeless. There is, however, a nice little utility available on the Mac App Store called Exporter. It will export your notes to a number of different formats (incl...
Cross-platform apps and privacy

Aha. I’ve just discovered the “Remotely Save” plugin, which does (apparently) allow you to sync a local vault on e.g. iOS with a remote Obsidian vault (on e.g. Dropbox, OneDrive, Goo...

Thanks for the suggestions, people.
I’m currently looking seriously at buying an Obsidian Sync subscription – it is end-to-end encrypted, apparently, but a full subscription is quite expe...

Couple of thoughts:

- Obsidian plugins do offer calendar integration (ICS...
