nvUltra has been fine. I don't use any of the new features. seems just as fast as NV/nvAlt to me.
caek was right, it's bad.
caek, what did you move to?

a weird neovim plugin with very few users that i like a lot but doesn't appear to be maintained and i cannot in good faith recommend https://github.com/wincent/corpus

i also played with obsidian. it wasn't for me, but it seems like nvultra but with a roadmap and community. that's definitely worth checking out.

I like the idea of Obsidian but it seems like the ultimate "fuck around with the settings rather than get things done" kind of app. Like, I would spend all my time building taxonomies as a way to procrastinate.

i get what you mean but i think its mostly fine. its adoption by the zettelkasten community is the source of that vibe. i was as happy as i was going to be with it after changing like 3 settings.

(i think it was just cosmetic stuff re: colorscheme and font, teaching it the folder structure i wanted, and a shortcut to open a dated for today)

*a dated note
I might try Obsidian again when I go back to Uni in October. I mostly use Scrivener (e.g. for keeping notes and essay writing), and even though it can be hard work, and the updates are never what I want, I just prefer Scrivener's look and feel.

a weird neovim plugin with very few users that i like a lot but doesn't appear to be maintained and i cannot in good faith recommendOh perfect. AND I can pretend that I'm finally going to become really nimble with vim.I'm keeping to-dos in Logseq (similar to Obsidian) and have been toying with moving my notes there. It's great for what I'm using it for, but I'm leery. And, dammit, the unified title display / search / create UI hasn't been bettered.

The Zettelkasten crew led me to this app The Archive which has exactly that UI and is actually pretty decent so far https://zettelkasten.de/the-archive/

that looks perfect, stet, thanks. have been using nvultra for a while, but it's trying to do a lot more than i want. i don't really like the *feel* of obsidian, even though really it's doing a lot of what I want. i do find logseq good for work - daily meeting journal, key areas as pages etc. but for personal stuff I just want raw note taking. my old simplenote on phone + nvalt on mac set-up was perfect tbh.

Alternate plug for iaWriter as my solution for this. I keep trying to use Obsidian and whatever new system comes along, but i dunno - I can procrastinate enough tags out before doing actual work.

my favorite technology "radar" (because it's the the only one of these kind of things that isn't completely worthless) has logseq in it's quarterly report

I have thoughts on thoughtworks but I, too, appreciate their tech radar

Just posted a vague and messy question tangentially related to this:
Second Brain: Note taking, productivity, Notion, Airtable, Obsidian, Mondays, Asana etc
