#justTryIt
Obsidian changed everything for me. Years of markdown notes and pdf's finally in one place with easy search and synced to my Synology. Svg for the visual stuff. And Vim key bindings. Multiplatform and extendable with plugins.:)
this, the fact thatit is just markdown files means i can add images in the app, should i need and i can use this to add a quick note from the terminal
function qn ()
{
date_today=$(date +%F)
year=$(date +%Y)
month=$(date +%m)
day=$(date +%d)
FNAME="$NOTES_DIR/Work/journal/$date_today.md"
#FNAME="$NOTES_DIR/Work/journal/$year/$date_today.md"
echo "### $(date +%F' '%T)" >> $FNAME
rlwrap cat >> $FNAME #
echo -e "\n" >> $FNAME
}

I've never seen `rlwrap` before, thank you. I am adapting this to my workflow. I use Org mode, but as it's still the idea is the same.
Thank you!
Plugins are a HUGE plus.
I can't recommend Obsidian enough. My only complaint is that for a fairly straightforward tool its UI performance wasn't amazing on my previous machine (an early 2015 MacBook Pro so pretty old but no slouch) but on my new machine that's not an issue at all.
I swear I'm not shilling for Google Keep, but I've found myself using it more and more over the last couple of years; it hits a sweet spot between "limited enough that I don't get distracted" and "advanced enough that I can still express myself".
The biggest praise is its ubiquity. It's just there when I need it. Interesting article + my in-the-moment thoughts? Google Keep-ed. Want to add a reflection at the end of the day with a picture? Google Keep-ed. Need to remember an address in the car? Toss it in the Keep and open it on my phone.
