Curio 25 released
3/16/2023
$99.99 PA for NotePlan !?!?
I've given NotePlan a try every few months since it first arrived in beta several years ago. The developer is a very nice person. However, using NotePlan always see...

The release notes for Curio 25
https://www.zengobi.com/curio/releasenotes/?v=25
The Smart Collection feature is very clever. If I have a Curio project with lots of idea spaces (i.e., canvases), an...
Update to Bike
3/13/2023
At least he hasn't abandoned this product ... yet
X-Tiles goes to LTD..
3/6/2023
What is "LTD" in this context?
X-Tiles appears to be more like Craft than Obsidian's canvas plugin.
IMO, Obsidian canvas is nice, but has no advantage over anything. It's a very low-end whiteboard...
MyInfo 8.0
2/23/2023
Trust me (or don't), once you get your hands on Tana you'll not want apps like MyInfo and others in that category.
Obsidian with Web Apps
2/21/2023
I've experimented with web sites displayed on Obsidian canvas. I get the same issue that I get in DEVONthink at times: the logins are not persistent between "sessions". If I quit and restart Obsid...
Tana?
1/10/2023
Encountering Tana is a bit like "well, here's a piece of paper -- now what?"
I've watched a few videos, and most of them are evangelistic, which doesn't help. This particular video, however, is cal...
Tana?
1/7/2023
Be sure to browse the Tana Slack channels
https://app.slack.com/client/T02E0729D6U/C048S52GH1Q
And add the "Tana Pattern Library" to your sidebar in Tana for some useful field and supertag patterns...
Obsidian Sync
1/7/2023
As mentioned above, all files are local and not locked into a database. Always.
Core Obsidian is free for non-commercial use. Obsidian Sync is an add-on with an annual fee. Not cheap, by the way. ...
Tana?
1/7/2023
I've had access to Tana since a few weeks after I posted the question at the head of this thread. I operate it almost every day for a hour or so -- I hesitate to say I "use" it, because I'm not sure...
Capacities Get Mac app
1/5/2023
I don't see much of Tana in Capacities, other than in some portions of the workspace Capacities mimics Tana. Not that mimicking Tana's look and feel is a good thing, since Tana is so minimalist . ...
Amen. I'm doing a lot of experimenting with Tana, since right now in the early access phase it is free. I don't know if I would pay for it. It is fascinating, though it is more on the quantum-com...
I've been using Tana for about a month. In it's current configuration, it is not a place to store files. Tana is a graph database, a blank slate where the user can define simple or endlessly compl...
Obsidian also published the file format for .canvas files -- which contain the JSON data that the Canvas plugin uses to build the Canvas view. This will be of no interest to 99% of users, but it mig...
Ghostreader in Readwise Reader
12/18/2022
I agree. Reader is very feature reach and very useful, and apparently there is more to come. They recently added a feature to capture and annotate excerpts of the transcripts of YouTube videos stor...
Also, see a related post on r/ObsidianMD

The $25 is a contribution toward development, but is not required. All the contribution gets you is early access -- usually a few weeks before updates are released to everyone.

I wouldn't call Obsidian a "companion" to Dynalist, though it true that Shida and Erica built both. (Obsidian has lately taken on more devs to that team.)
Anyway, I suspect what happens here is tha...
Purelist

Reminds me a bit of Agenda.
Obsidian Canvas supports as many canvases as you wish.

Nice. Tempting to subscribe to get this feature now.

Discourse map!
11/17/2022
Very interesting - can you provide a link where the developers discuss this? Is this your understanding of the "Canvas plugin" that the Obsidian developers mention on their roadmap?

Ghostreader in Readwise Reader
11/12/2022
I've been using Readwise's Reader app for a few months, and find it far more than a "read later" app, with an increasing number of very useful features. (Not to mention that highlights and notes cap...
Robot writing apps
11/11/2022
We have AI-generated deep fake images and video, AI-generated writing, etc. Of course, we also have the problem of perception and reality that has been a core philosophical problem in many cultures ...
Obsidian 1.0
11/11/2022
There is a popular plugin, "Hover Editor", that turns the embedded text preview into an editor pane so that the transcluded text can be edited in the current view.

Tana?

Anyone using Tana
https://tana.inc
Looks like outliner + todo + graph + dark mode
Not sure what's new
