Lou Plummer 💖<p>If Obsidian users are willing to spend some time with a good LLM and install Python, you can do some cool things to your vault. I used it to remove all emojis from file names and to move inline properties to YAML. <a href="https://social.lol/tags/Obsidian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Obsidian</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/ObsidianMD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ObsidianMD</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/PKM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PKM</span></a></p>
Lou Plummer 💖<p>For Mac and iOS users of Obsidian, you can really level up the integration of many OS features via Shortcuts using Actions for Obsidian. According to my stats, I've used it 1894 times. <a href="https://social.lol/tags/Obsidian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Obsidian</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/ObsidianMD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ObsidianMD</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/PKM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PKM</span></a></p><p><a href="https://actions.work/actions-for-obsidian/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">actions.work/actions-for-obsid</span><span class="invisible">ian/</span></a></p>
Lou Plummer 💖<p>One thing I dislike about Obsidian sync - when moving a folder to a new location, it has to delete all the files and redownload them taking a VERY LONG TIME even on a fast broadband connection. I moved my bookmarks (1300+ notes) - it took over an hour to sync. <a href="https://social.lol/tags/Obsidian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Obsidian</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/ObsidianMD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ObsidianMD</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/PKM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PKM</span></a></p>
Lou Plummer 💖<p>I've used Obsidian and the same vault with dozens of plugins simultaneously on multiple Macs, a Linux box, Windows 10, iOS and iPadOS and never had an issue I could assign to cross-platform issues. It just works. <a href="https://social.lol/tags/Obsidian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Obsidian</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/ObsidianMD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ObsidianMD</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/PKM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PKM</span></a></p>
Lou Plummer 💖<p>In Obsidian, I find it's better to use the Iconize plugin than to include actual emojis in file and folder names because some backup and syncing software choke on emojis. <a href="https://social.lol/tags/Obsidian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Obsidian</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/ObsidianMD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ObsidianMD</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/PKM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PKM</span></a></p>
Lou Plummer 💖<p>There are people in this world smart enough to write articles for money, yet the articles they write are about how hard it is to use <a href="https://social.lol/tags/Obsidian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Obsidian</span></a>, an app that creates plain text files. I don't get what's so hard. I'm an old man with no college and not a developer and I can do it. <a href="https://social.lol/tags/pkm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pkm</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/ObsidianMD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ObsidianMD</span></a></p>
Lou Plummer 💖<p>The Obsidian plugin to import JSON files from the Day One journal app has just been updated. I created a new vault today to test it out and it worked great with 16 GB of data! (Day One just layed off more than 100 devs) <a href="https://social.lol/tags/Obsidian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Obsidian</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/ObsidianMD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ObsidianMD</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/PKM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PKM</span></a></p><p><a href="https://github.com/MarcDonald/obsidian-day-one-importer" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">github.com/MarcDonald/obsidian</span><span class="invisible">-day-one-importer</span></a></p>

Lou Plummer 💖<p>I am a fan of using Obsidian sync because it lets me have different settings on each device where I use the app, but I recently found out that if you use Syncthing for DIY syncing, you can omit the .obsidian folder, where all the settings are kept and get the same result. <a href="https://social.lol/tags/Obsidian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Obsidian</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/ObsidianMD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ObsidianMD</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/PKM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PKM</span></a></p>

Lou Plummer 💖<p>I just did an analysis of my Obsidian Vault. I have 10, 153 total files. 6,544 are markdown files and 3,609 are attachments, mostly images downloaded as part of clipped web pages. What about you? <a href="https://social.lol/tags/Obsidian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Obsidian</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/ObsidianMD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ObsidianMD</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/PKM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PKM</span></a></p>
Lou Plummer 💖<p>One benefit of Obsidian text files is that it's easy to use Python with them - especially with the help pf ChatGPT or Gemini. I've been able to use Python to turn a CSV file into 300 properly formatted Obsidian notes. Have you done anything cool with Pyton and Obsidian? <a href="https://social.lol/tags/Obsidian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Obsidian</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/ObsidianMD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ObsidianMD</span></a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/PKM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PKM</span></a></p>
