Hi I have come from Roam, so I wanna see everything in blocks in Obsidian. It there any way to convert all the notes in block mode.
I can do " - " to make a block, but I want my whole graph to show every line in block format. Can we do that in Obsidian

To add to CawlinTeffid’s answer above: You can set the “Toggle bullet list” command set to a hotkey (via the Hotkeys panel in Settings). That reduces the steps a little bit.
Also, folks who like lists on this forum frequently recommend the community plugins Outliner and Zoom, so I’ll pass that recommendation along.
