bench-warmers VS obsidian-omnisearch

i have more ideas than I know what to do with, help yourself: https://github.com/dmarx/bench-warmers

you're welcome to help yourself to my ideas (no guarantees that they're any good or even comprehensible, I do a lot of my brainstorming while high). here's my brainstorming space, scroll down for a categorized ToC: https://github.com/dmarx/bench-warmers

I've decided to just lean into it and am literally just giving my ideas away. https://github.com/dmarx/bench-warmers

it might sound like a lot, but it's actually really lightweight and easy to use. Check it out: https://github.com/dmarx/bench-warmers

you've sort of become victims of your own success: as another pandas dev mentioned, you want to preserve backwards compatibility and this significantly complicates any restructuring. I'm sympathetic and am not sure what the best solution here would be. I had this idea last night but i'm not sure I like this approach either.

To be clear, i'm talking about e.g. vision impaired, hearing impaired, etc. Here's an example of a project idea in this space (possibly a bit more ambitious than what you're looking for but if you think you could tackle this I encourage you to take a stab at it): https://github.com/dmarx/bench-warmers/blob/main/automated-video-description.md

Mobile Document Scanning using QuickScan iOS app and OCR search with Omnisearch and Text Extractor: I was a power user of the Scannable app by Evernote for capturing scans of receipts and documents, so moving on from this was going to be tough. But QuickScan has the same functionality (OCR scanning) and has quick outputs to where my scans are stored in my Obsidian folder. Using Omnisearch, searching my scans feels just as intuitive and snappy as what Evernote used to feel like for me.

In the past I have used Omnisearch which I have found to be an improvement.

Combine this with my favorite Obsidian search plugin Omnisearch and you end up making this bunch of random chat threads useful - now I can link and tag across, and source them for new ideas.

The Omnisearch plugin might be what you need. No AI but weighted results depending on where your query words are found (filename, titles, frequency...). It works well for me, it's my primary way to find notes.

The tag system works well for GTD workflows and organization in general. Default search isn't the best but the Omnisearch plugin fixes that.

Also - and speaking about plugins in general - the best way to get an issue resolved is to ask it on the GitHub page. If the plugin is maintained, its developer will usually gladly help you solve your problem :) https://github.com/scambier/obsidian-omnisearch/issues

I think Obsidian Omnisearch can help you with that.

The Omnisearch plug-in for Obsidian does search in PDFs and images via OCR.

In my opinion it is absolutely possible. The developer of the Omnisearch plugin now works on PDF indexing - https://github.com/scambier/obsidian-omnisearch/releases/tag/1.6.5-beta.3.
