I’ll go ahead and start on this one:
After being shown what Obsidian can do by my producer, Neigsendoig, I wanted to set up an Obsidian vault for when I would eventually start doing narration for Cocules Reddit Readings (currently inactive because I hadn’t really recorded anything in a while since my debut on the channel), and making the scripts for it with a few plugins. My experience has been positive for something that’s local-first (which the two of us have been going full-send on lately), and I’m already in love (so is Neigsendoig, in fact).
That’s my experience in a nutshell.
I’ve been building my own Call of Cthulhu campaign, using it to map out all the scenarios, scenes, characters, and monsters that are needed. It’s great for visually seeing all the links between things, especially after adding tags to them and color coding the graph view.
I love the fact that it stores everything in .md format so they are easily transferable to something else, there’s no locking you into proprietary formats.
Using SyncThing to sync between devices easily is also very handy (I recommend checking it out if you’re looking for a good cloud drive replacement and are fine with self hosting the backup machine yourself).
Syncthing is great for backups, but you have to make sure to change the options for your sync folders to not sync deletions. Otherwise you can potentially delete all your data
Yes, totally agree
