How to improve your GitHub vanity metrics FAST
In practice I write in Obsidian, the best thing since slice bread for me. And it was obsidian-git, running every 10 minutes or so, who was keeping my GitHub vanity metrics very green.

A structured note-taking app for personal use
> Joplin is using md to.
The way it's handled can make the difference in control.
> by separating that in their DB, it's a big NO for me since it's a closed silo.
Joplin is using a popular open database with a healthy community and good tooling. It's as open as markdown. Maybe not for you, when you lack the knowledge, but markdown is similar closed for anyone not understanding filesystems and editors.
> This: https://github.com/blacksmithgu/obsidian-dataview works so wonderful for me
Good for you, but that is very low level in terms of data-handling. Dataview is really just an elaborated search, there is no good level of interaction. Datacore, the next project of the Dataview is supposed to bring this, but it's not even usable yet AFAIK. Coincidental, the Obsidian-devs are also working on that front, but nothing is finished yet.
> https://github.com/denolehov/obsidian-git and b) easy to fix since it's a text file. Gosh!
That's useless when the app itself is not working. And even worse if you are not realizing the errors early.
> Aha. I don't think so. Which authority says that?
My own experience. I've tested enough plugins over the years to know their dark corners.
> And even if It's like that, my markdown files would survive everything
The thing is, technically you are not even having proper markdown, but a fork with some extensions of Obsidian. So some features of your parts might break when switching away from Obsidian. And the reason for all this is also because markdown is lacking definitions for what obsidian-people are doing with it. Coincidentally, this seems also one of the reasons why Joplin is using a database.
> And gosh, this is a good thing!
Not if they all suck.
> Installing multiple task plugins shows that something is "broke" on the user side.
Sure, because the plugins are lacking features, its the users fault... Maybe some users have just very different levels of requirements from you.

Obsidian 1.4.10 Desktop (Public)
The Obsidian team uses the "remote vault" feature[1] to collaborate on making Obsidian. Since Obsidian runs on local files you could use any shared file storage like Dropbox. If you want more granular version history, you can use Git, there's a nice plugin for it[2].

Show HN: Open-source obsidian.md sync server
I've been using the main Obsidian git extension, https://github.com/denolehov/obsidian-git. Took some work to set it up ergnonomically but it works great now. I enabled auto-commit and push on save, and auto-pull when you start the editor. No merge conflicts yet between two machines.
Should note I use Obsidian for a journal, so it's pretty much append-only.

A Side Effect of Storing a Git Repository in iCloud Drive
I use Obsidian to create notes as Markdown files on my computer and use the Obsidian Git plugin to version control the changes via Git. The Obsidian vault in which I store my notes is stored in a folder synced using iCloud Drive.

Syncthing is causing battery drain. Any free alternatives?
Up to my knowledge, Obsidian GIT doesn't support merge on mobile. There is a different approach for handling those on mobile using Command Line, you can find more info in this post and this article.

Seeing Edit History of a note?
I am using Git for that. Here is the extension that might help. https://github.com/denolehov/obsidian-git

Extract note A content from a link in note B and pastit down the link. Is that Possible.
Otherwise, even if it is a bit convoluted, the longform plugin can be used to compile a collection of different notes in a single "manuscript". Just create a longform project and have one card per file, then you compile them.
-
Exporting and using writing app
The longform plugin is all about taking individual notes for chapters/snippets/etc in a single project and putting them together.

Any way to bulk-export a number of notes to PDF?
Depending on your usecase you could try longform plugin to compile and export multiple files as pdf.
- Panes? Ok, I installed a plugin to help me with what I am trying to to do. And in the GitHub thing it says ‘in the Longform pane’. How do you change the pane?

Pandoc conversion loop | Keeping MS Word in sync
In addition, if you'd like to split your long Markdown file into separate files (one for each chapter, or whatever structure your academic writing has) you could look into the Longform plugin. It can merge multiple files (and do a lot of other stuff, like removing links etc), and then you could add the Pandoc conversion as a final step in the Longform workflow. https://github.com/kevboh/longform

Is there a free non-cloud based word processor you like?
It might not be exactly what you're looking for, but it is free and it's all local. If you decide to give it a go, try a few of the community made plugins (I use Longform, Advanced Tables, Templater and Tracker) to see just how cool and easy it is to customise. Installing directly from the community plugins browser isn't the most secure, but you can manually install whatever you want just by downloading directly from GitHub. It's a lot easier than it sounds!

Using Obsidian for novel writing/planning
The longform plugin is pretty nice, turning Obsidian into a Scrivener-esque tool for writing individual bits that can be drag-rearranged in the project pane view, with the added benefit of being able to use Obsidian's easy cross-linkings.
- Notion or Obsidian?

Help with 2 Feature Needs
The Longform plugin will get at both things, admittedly in relatively kludgy way. It treats specific folder-bound sets of notes as scenes in a draft, and those scenes can be manually dragged to reorder them, then a compile action can stitch them all together into a new note. The default compile steps strip links and such, but you can make a custom sequence that just retains the stitching together while retaining all markdown formatting.
