"Your account will be permanently closed" -- my reasons for leaving Evernote as a loyal user since 2011
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.

Tip: Use an Obsidian folder to store your ChatGPT threads
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.

Using Github to write my notes has helped me retain knowledge immensely.
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.
-
Why do you think Obsidian is better than the alternatives?
The tag system works well for GTD workflows and organization in general. Default search isn't the best but the Omnisearch plugin fixes that.

Search & Omnisearch frustrations - prioritizing exact matches over fuzzy search?
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
-
Is there a way to search for a word or phrase just in the current note?
I think Obsidian Omnisearch can help you with that.

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.

📊 Obsidian: Nutrition
At the end of the day, I use Dataview, a plugin for Obsidian, which allows me to make queries to my notes similar to SQL to visualize the collected information:

Apache Superset

This whole ideas to have data, visualisations and knowledge base in one private offline place is very appealing

My productivity app is a never-ending .txt file
Since at least 2012 I've also been using a text file format from http://todotxt.org/ and more recently I wrote a program that takes a crontab-like list to pre-generate entries on a daily, by-day-name (every Sunday for example), and I also pull in a list of holidays from gov.uk, so they are also populated.

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.

I'm completely stressed out trying to fix this so I hope one of you would be able to help me. I'm trying to create a home page of sorts so I can navigate my files without using the folders. (SEE COMMENTS)

How to automatically fill different notes from a single note ?
For using it, having SQL or JavaScript knowledge is useful, but you can probably figure it out without that knowledge. The Github page has a lot of examples that you can cannabalize for simple things without really getting too deep into it.

Show HN: I made an open-source Notion-style WYSYWIG editor
Have you heard of Obsidian? It's a note-taking app build on locally stored markdown files with bidirectional linking and a great ecosystem of third party plugins. One of the most popular plugins is https://github.com/blacksmithgu/obsidian-dataview which lets you treat your notes as databases and query them to form tables. The creator has been working on its successor, Datacore https://github.com/blacksmithgu/datacore for a while - Datacore might come close to what you're looking for, its goals include WYSIWYG views and live editing inside tables.
