Tips needed!

I have been using #Obsidian for more than 2 years now. I was noticing how many notes are outdated due to complexity, plugins and things changing... Where markdown is a nice format, it is clear that I have spent way too much time tinkering.

So I am going minimal with my #SecondBrain. I will try again #AppleNotes and I feel that way too many basic features are missing, and probably I will look back to Obsidian with no plugins. Any suggestion/tips on how to improve Notes?

starting my obsidian vault over - going to try to keep it simple, use the basic features to the maximum and try to keep it ultimately more useable.

if you had #obsidian to do over, for a #secondbrain type setup, what would you do?

i have gone through the #johnnydecimal system and i like it but i’m not sure how make it work well if obsidian is all text and i want to organize all files (.pdf, images, sound clips, etc), maybe i’m missing something.

Some updates via my #Obsidian notes to my #Hugo blog site:

1. #AppleVisionPro #visionOS "wish list". magnus919.com/notes/visionos-w

2. Updated #nowPage.
magnus919.com/notes/now/

Think of this site as more like guest access to part of my Obsidian #secondBrain vault, and not a traditional blog with articles just being thrown over the wall and forgotten. These pages can and should change over time.

Notes from the Rabbit Hole · Apple spatial computing wishlistThings I'd love to see in future iterations of spatial computing products by Apple, including visionOS and the Apple Vision Pro product lines.

Time to move on from OneNote and use (a) different platform(s) for different reasons. My OneNote is already a mess.

What do you use? I am going to try Norton, AnyType, Coda, Capacities, and Obsidian.
#SecondBrain

Finally tackling the web app to create and save notes or thoughts throughout the day to my #SecondBrain housed in a #GitHub repo.

Was able to reuse code from a simple GitHub CMS project I started last year.

Currently, new notes are going to the December folder for my Journal entries, but I can easily change that. Will probably create a separate "Inbox" or "Notes" folder once it's fully functional.

Закончил чтение замечательной книги Building a Second Brain. Несмотря на то, что большинством описанных методик давно пользуюсь, всё равно нашел много полезного для себя.
