i hate journaling but i love note-taking and lists that I'll never look at again so I'm giving this one a try
Okay love… 📝 I know people always say to use Notion but my eyes glaze over whenever I try it
taterhole Same, used notion for 3 years while studying film at university and i really struggled with it. The way my brain works is how obsidian works, and i find it 2 years after studying haha ffs
cleanteeth I was just thinking as I looked at it that it definitely reminds me of my own cognitive mapping and associative thinking… very interesting I am often tormented by the sheer volume of my thoughts and ideas. I’ve started getting kind of into OneNote which is actually deranged and corporate drone pilled of me but it reminds me of Evernote which I loved!
taterhole wow I downloaded it and there’s a lot going on there but it is cool and very intuitive to use!
mangle Youtube helped me figure it out, initially. Basically the general idea is that you don't need folders to link anything. You just need to link stuff.
Lets say you start a new note "The Beatles" and then you write "The Beatles are a 4 piece 1960s rock band" You can [[ ]] around any word(s) to create a link. Once that link is created you can press it and it will open a new note, titled whatever you [[ ]] and then you have linked The Beatles to lets say 1960s. Now you have a new note where you can talk about the 1960s.
The more you write, the more links you'll have. If that makes sense
cleanteeth ahhh okay sounds like I was misusing it not able to figure out the linking part. I'll check the YouTube tutorials out but that explanation does clear it up for me, thank u!!
