🧭Recalibrating 🌍Worldbuilding

Time for a thank you to @wanderloots.eth for the nudge he gave me last week to check out Obsidian again. I'm using it daily now.

I tried /obsidian many times before, loved it, and wanted to migrate... but my old habits were deeply ingrained. I struggled to get it integrated into my workflow.

But this time it clicked for me -- for both notes and long-form writing.

I successfully imported my entire Notion workspace (5+ years of work) into Obsidian in just a few clicks (as seen in Cal's video linked in the cast I quoted). 

Next I'll tackle exporting 13 years of my Scrivener files and importing into Obsidian. That will be a bigger project, but doable. 

@trigs and I also tried the Relay plugin for our collab work.

Thanks again for your patience and persistence, Cal. :)

Obsidian can be a bit confusing at first, but it's honestly the most powerful system I've ever come across for organizing ideas & moving them towards publication (whether art, building, writing, or socials)

With great customization can come great feelings of overwhelm. It's important to remember that Obsidian can be as simple or complicated as you want it to be 🌱

For anyone looking to learn more, I have a full playlist that goes into depth on the different ways Obsidian can be used. It's currently at over 75,000 views in the last 28 days, so it seems to really be resonating with people 🤯

Thanks for sharing. Last time I tried to set up sync it wasn't totally plug and play for me. I'm not sure what I screwed up, but syncing wasn't happening. Have you seen it be easy to set up for most people? I might try again.

Hmm are you talking about Obsidian Sync, the paid service? 

I actually just set it up again for a shared vault I’m working on and it was super easy to get going! 

If you try putting the synced vault in another syncing service like iCloud, you can run into issues. 

But if you just use, eg, iCloud, it can also be fine
