Zotero Better Notes – Knowledge management solution insid}e Zotero
Yeah, I just stumbled upon this project and wanted to share, I'm currently using Obsidian for my personal wiki, but I use Zotero a lot as a paper repo and reader, the organization and metadata tools are great, and extending it to a more powerful note-taking tool seems like a no-brainer.
Now it just needs an EPUB reader to replace Calibre, then it'd just be the perfect all-in-one personal library. For now I'm using this plugin that exports and keeps in sync the calibre library to Zotero:

Very grateful that this open source project stays alive, I've seen attempts over the years from startups and other projects to tackle on spaces like pkm, research, paperless office, to then be abandoned yet Zotero keeps getting updates.
There's also Tropy, from the same organization that develops Zotero, for organizing digital assets:

Getting a bit off-topic, but this thing could use some sort of Moodboard designer to visually sort the assets in a canvas, kind of what you can do with Miro, Notion, Mural or locally with Obsidian Canvas/Excalidraw. On that note,

Best way to organize old photos
I'm personally a big fan of digitizing as you go, since that is ultimately what is going to make the images the most accessible for you and your family. Even if you aren't going to make high resolution scans, a cell phone image of the photo provides a great opportunity to compile notes and related resources in a more accessible digital format. A resource I can highly recommend is called Tropy (https://tropy.org/), a free program created specifically to assist in organizing and arranging photographs and research notes. You can include granular information such as the box and folder the item is located in, transcriptions and captions for the images, and even tag and link related materials (such as tagging by surname, linking census records, and grouping images together like pages of a photo album or front and back of documents).

About archiving my analog Zettelkasten
One idea to store pictures of an analog Zettelkasten: Tropy - it's a side project to Zotero. https://tropy.org/
- Thoughts on managing a shared digital "archive" for the family?

PSA: Bing Image Creator only saves a limited number of your created images
So if you like an image, save it somewhere together with the prompt. I'm using Lightroom. Tropy is a free option that should be good too.

Zotero Better Notes – Knowledge management solution insid}e Zotero
Thanks for sharing these. I already use a number of these on your list. Though I don't use copy-by-link for files. For me one of the key purposes of zotero is that its the place where I keep these files so I don't have to keep them elsewhere where they aren't as easily searchable.
I'm excited to try the duplicates merger tool, I've been forever putting off this because the normal way is such a slog. The Tag one also looks good.
To add to the list, my key add-ons are:
- better bibtex, this one is essential for me as a latex user
- zotfile. This one is cool because if you add annotations to a pdf, like highlighting or comments while you read it, then zotfile will pull those out into notes in the zotero entry. This makes it really easy to see both that I've read this document, and what parts I thought were important.

I was going to suggest that you ask the BBT dev about it as I had no idea why that didn't work, then I saw this bug from 3 days ago: Bug: citekey formula does not update. That might be the issue!

My setup as a researcher. How to write, run statistics, and work seamlessly with R, Obsidian, Linux, and Zotero, and collaborate with senior professors who only accept MS Word files!
Another problem is that no matter how much I tried, the two available Zotero plugins for Obsidian do not work for me (this https://github.com/mgmeyers/obsidian-zotero-integration and this https://github.com/hans/obsidian-citation-plugin). I am not sure if that is because I'm on Linux, but they just don't work. However, RStudio on Linux works great with Zotero, and I can easily add citations using the Better BibTeX for Zotero plugin (https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-better-bibtex) to create citation keys. That way, I can simply copy/paste the citation key (e.g. '@lastname2020') in the text and have it render into the citation when I render the file in Rstudio. I sometimes write documents with > 300 references, and Zotero running in a Windows VM, trying to refresh a huge word document would take a long time, and would lead to corrupt citations. That's no problem with a markdown/Rmarkdown document.

Zotero + LaTex with dynamic/updated references?
I've been using the Better Bibtex plugin for zotero for a couple months now, and so far it seems to work flawlessly. You can export a .bib file attached to a zotero collection or library and it will automatically update it as you add things to the collection.

I use Zotero with the better bibtex addon. Works great. When I first started using zotero, I imported my existing bibtex library, so all my existing bibtex keys all worked. I use zotero as my library for everything and add bibtex keys to things I cite.
