Right now I’m using Obsidian to take notes about what things I want to do as far as lesson planning goes. I’m knee-deep in prep for work :stuck_out_tongue:

Question: Do you use Obsidian? Daily, Weekly, Monthly? ; - )

These days I’m using it weekly because IT blocked it on my work computer and when I get home I’m often very tired :frowning:

Almost daily, mostly because I journal here (daily notes).
For actual synthesis and processing knowledge? I’ll say weekly, although it comes in fits and starts. I wish I was as dedicated as some of you seem to be… Although I’m in a much better place now that I was four years ago!

Question: What is your favorite new Obsidian plugin?

Influx seems really cool!

Very! Like many people, I’m struggling with how the heck to organize all my documents. I’ve been using computers for decades now, and it’s STILL a struggle. Influx seems like it could be very helpful.

It appears to be an extended backlinks pane–simple but powerful. Is there more to it than that?

I may install it with BRAT and play with it, although I usually like to wait for plugins to be approved.

I bumped the influx discussion to a separate topic, hoping to start conversation.
