#notion

1 post1 participant0 posts today

Unexpected weekend thread derailment - I discovered a (kinda cool looking) event to promote which I found only on one of my sources - but when I looked further, I realized that their registration page also included a link to all the responses set to public - everyone's PII - names, emails, socials, home address, phone.

Initially: Homer backs into the hedges.gif, then I emailed the organizer so they hopefully fix it.

Recently picked up this system for my obsidian daily notes. It lets me create a captains log where I drop things in my daily note with an in-line property that will pull that content into another "log" file, so I don't have to worry about leaving the page or copy pasting things from my daily journal into the places it's "supposed" to go. For example, i can talk about gaming, research, etc. with a time stamp throughout the day, then I gave a game log file that queries for those mentions and puts it all together, organized by the date. This system is something I really liked when I was using Futureland journals for microjournaling. I considered if I could just do this in Obsidian bases (their equivalent of notion table feature) because people will use that to display the summary line of each of their journal entries for a quick view, but bases doesn't support in-line properties and it likely would get complicated if you query a property more than once in the same file. I also wouldn't recommend using this method for anything long-form.

This is the guide I followed:

Obsidian and Daily Notes - The Devil Sounds Like Smoke and Honey
The Devil Sounds Like Smoke and HoneyObsidian and Daily Notes - The Devil Sounds Like Smoke and HoneyI love Obsidian• It’s a powerful notetaking app, with crossplatform support working on PC, Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android. • It stores all of the notes as markdown text files....

Geistige Arbeit ist keine Fabrikarbeit - es geht nicht darum, viel zu produzieren, sondern Hochwertiges. Dafür braucht man Freiraum, Ruhe und Klarheit.

Was von außen, wie Faulheit aussieht, ist die Voraussetzung für kluge Ergebnisse.

Danke, @Daojoan für dieses Video-Essay. Es bestätigt mich noch einmal darin, dass ich richtig damit liege, keine Geschäftigkeit zu simulieren, wenn ich Ruhe brauche, um Lösungen zu finden.

#Obsidian har fått Bases (i early access enn så lenge), og om dette fungerar bra, så kan det bety at eg ender opp med å gi meg med #Notion.

I det store og heile er eg nøgd med Notion, men det følest veldig lukka, veldig AI-fokusert, og på full fart mot Zawinski's lov om programvareutvikling (med tida, blir alle appar e-post). Obsidian er lettkøyrd, og alle filer er .md, eit litt anna beist.

Obsidian HelpIntroduction to Bases - Obsidian HelpObsidian Bases let you turn any set of notes into a powerful database. With bases you can organize everything from projects to travel plans, reading lists, and more.

I'm looking for an #alternative to #Notion, which is the last US platform I use exclusively in its segment. The alternative does not need to provide all the features of Notion right now.

Core requirements: Joint editing of shared (text) content (including individual pages for individual users), E2E encryption, GDPR compliance, web interface (plus native iOS and Android app if possible) — and open source would be super nice to have
