The answer to many questions about #obsidian is "There's a plugin for that!" But for many people, community plugins add a lot of complexity and time to workflows. I think there's value in going back to the basics: the optional core plugins that Obsidian comes with by default. Here's a video overview of my top 10 CORE plugins: https://youtu.be/Lq33gNpeDkE

@nicole Besides dataview and calendar I’ve been using #obsidian as is and it was an amazing and frictionless experience so far. I think I do enjoy the simplicity of things. Oh and tables. Advanced tables. Loving those as well :)

@krstf That's awesome! Yeah, I think there are still some community plugins that are (for me) worth the complexity, and the ones you mentioned are some of my favourites too! I have all of them. Glad to hear it's not just me. :)

@nicole oh! Now I feel like a fraud :D :D Ofc they are the same, I’ve learned them from your channel. 🙇‍♂️ Thanks for that! Also I’m definitely not against community plugins - love them to the death. It is just I am sort of enjoying the rare situation where I really don’t feel the need to hunt for more. I don’t that ever happened to me before. :D
