Julia Evansstarted tracking todos for my programming side projects by just making a little (usually untracked) `todos.md` file in the project's directory and it's so much better than anything else I've ever tried
raphael@b0rk yeah, same. text editor of choice, markdown highlighting, ripgrep. i have yet to find any dedicated productivity/notetaking/knowledge management/snake oil app that comes close.
Dainius Happy 🇱🇹 ❤ 🇺🇦@anthroposamu @b0rk i didn’t try it because:
- closed-source
- electron
- does nothing i need that vim and ripgrep don’t do heaps better and faster
(but i did look at it, and discarded it alongside logseq, joplin, and zettlr)
@gekitsu sounds fair. I'm using it because i'm mainly living outside the command line and it saves files in a regular .md format.
@anthroposamu that, too, is entirely fair! it seems to work for a lot of people, and having the data in a format that’s not tethered to the software is certainly a big boon.
Mandar Vaze (desipenguin)@gekitsu @anthroposamu I use both Obsidian and terminal based editor (Mostly #HelixEditor , but vi/m also works)
At times, I started the file in Obsidian and continued editing elsewhere (and vice versa) Beauty of text files (in this case Markdown)
Obsidian really shines when you need/use the plugins (Like excalidraw plugin by @zsviczian )
