md_handbookNew post: The Markdown Link no. 7
Today’s links: Blogatto, an #SSG; Kirby’s CMS is on sale; bring indent mode to #markdown; Ghostmd, a #markdown editor; and, Tokie, a database for markdown files.
Ben Companjen 🟥I used to use #nvALT for digitally taking notes on tools and methods, sometimes meetings. It's fast and keyboard friendly, but my notes' Markdown needs some processing before I can publish them online. I tried #Zettlr, which provides some additional features like backlinks.
But it looks like #Obsidian provides even more features that I like. So I think it's time to import my notes.
(I'm not looking for tips per se)

Ted Curran M. Ed.@MacLemon I'm curious how #NVAlt works with so many notes, and how you separate different types of information? I have really resonated with #Obsidian because different types of notes can be in separate vaults so they don't mix. My work notes are separate from my blog posts or my life management-type docs. How do you keep those separate in NVAlt or #NVUltra? Even having spaces based off different directories would help keep things orderly. @ttscoff
John TierneyThe advantage of this combination over using notes in iOS is the ability to access the very same TXT files in a single folder. #nvalt #simplenote
jjude@ellane been a plaintext guy for at least a decade (though not with a foresight). Started with #nvalt then to other tools.
Don’t know if you’ve read this: https://sive.rs/plaintext. That validated my practice.

Alex Qwxlea@ctietze @flyingmeat Using such a cute puppy for your evil commercial purposes is just… it’s a very nice puppy. Thumbnail: succeeded.
PS Looking at some of your old posts, is #TheArchive based on old code from #nvalt, or is it more a spiritual successor?
MacLemonNote taking is ∞. Personally I'm the Student/Librarian archetype of a note taker.
I've amassed ≈10k text only notes. On macOS I'm using #nvAlt https://brettterpstra.com/projects/nvalt/ which improved upon #NotationalVelocity https://notational.net all syncing via #Simplenote on iOS.
I'm hoping for #nvUltra https://nvultra.com/ by @ttscoff to become publicly available at some point. The betas I was lucky enough to try are phenomenal.
So far, nothing else comes close, for me.
Mark McElroy@marcjenkins The speed of #NotationalVelocity and #NVAlt! It was breathtaking at the time. Nice, simple, minimal interface, to boot.
