Hello everyone, I wrote an article on how to better understand Obsidian using the teachings of St Thomas Aquinas. It addresses endless capture, graph fixation, plugin obsession, AI dependence, hoarding without synthesis, polished postponement and other issues I’ve encountered - and ties everything back to Steph’s articles. The aim is to help users understand the ‘why’ of Obsidian before moving on to the ‘how’. I hope it’s useful.
That sounds like a really thoughtful and unique approach
Focusing on the “why” before the “how” can make a big difference in how people use Obsidian effectively.
Linking it with philosophical ideas like Aquinas is definitely interesting.
Thanks for sharing — I’m sure many will find it helpful!
