Obsidian gets folding

By automatic wiki linking I mean the mode in which every name corresponding to another file appears as a link, regardless of double brackets. I don’t see this popping up anywhere else at all. Which is a shame.

The “new” Tinderbox features aren’t new at all, they are just stuff that should have been there already a long time ago. For a long time, there was a tick box in the preferences to allow [[wiki links]], but it did absolutely nothing. It is also worth pointing out that the so-called “zip links” do not work with markdown or plaint text, only with rtf (which renders it without much worth or use to me).

So, indeed, it must have itched quite a bit.

Speaking of Connected Text… it still remains the best wiki software there is, in my view. And Roam is much inferior to it in terms of features, usability, price, and so on. If only it were easier to use in a mac…
