ah sweet! i’m so glad someone has found something useful in the colophon! that’s what they’re all about ☺️ smart connections is great, it makes links to things i forgot i read, but that immediately brings back a memory of a thought as soon as i see the connection.

I was trying to explain @obsidian.md to my musician friend. He uses Google Docs. To demonstrate, we exported a document in both markdown and Microsoft word formats. Then we opened both in notepad, markdown first. "See, you can still read it." Then the word file, he goes "hieroglyphics?!?" 🌴

Obsidian Bases is great, but it doesn't replace Dataview's advanced features. Hopefully we'll see list/task level queries in Bases in the future 🌴

Instead of a giant mono-repo for my Obsidian.md vault, important notes/sections live in a Git repo where they belong contextually. I use a plugin to keep them synced. Git stays fast & history stays contextual 🌴
