I love Obsidian *so* much, and yet its iPad app drives me crazy. Two equally true statements.

@viticci do you use it on the Mac? I thought it was catalyst/electron?
Show threadBill LloydSep 15, 2023
@ctp @viticci Yes, it's an electron app. It’s really fast/interactive, but it has all those weird non-native things by which I cannot abide.

@viticci have you tried craft.do ? I went with that as I wanted a more native apple/Mac/iOS UX but I compromised on other things.

Hoping someone out there is working on best of both.

@softinio @viticci Oh yes, believe me, he tried it extensively. I remember multiple shortcut created for craft !

@softinio @viticci Craft is amazing, but the plugin community on obsidian is killer.

@viticci YES SAME AND SAME it’s so close! And even the iOS app works! But iPad, gross

@viticci Yup, I love that it does all the desktop things, but it is jankier than I wish it could be.

@viticci Major agree. I so badly wish iOS sandboxing didnt stop other "folder of files" text apps from being able to be the front-end for my markdown files. From desktop, i seamlessly switch between obsidian, VS code, etc with no issue.

@viticci It’s so bittersweet to love something in abstract, and hate it in detail.

@viticci I absolutely agree regarding Obsidian on iOS. I keep files in a Dropbox folder so I can I use just about any iOS plain text app for editing.

@viticci a friend of mine hasn’t really seen the point of Obsidian, since he uses Ulysses and Drafts for text. What about it would make me..uh…I mean him switch? (This is largely aimed at the folks replying to this message to inform that friend of mine who isn’t me.)

@viticci This Stage Manager bug really annoys me. Someone else reported it on Obsidian’s Forum on November 2022 and it has yet to be squashed.
