Obsidian is the free and flexible app for your private thoughts.
Is there a @venice-ai plugin on Obsidian? I've seen other AI plugins but I'm unsure of their privacy policies
I have Venice AI Pro subscription and it would be great to plug this in to my Obsidian notes instead of moving back and forth between apps

trying to use ChatGPT in Obsidian via "smart connections" plugin so i can provide a better context for my prompts. does anyone have a Obsidian+AI workflow that really works?
Wen Canvas on Publish? There was a feature request raised 2.5 years ago and I'd love to know if it's on the roadmap at all, before investing any meaningful time building canvases. I'd rather not use third-party tools like Sharecanvas.io. Hopefully @kepano can weigh in 💕

I'd love to open several workspaces in several active windows while maintaining a flexible workspace/window for incoming/random notes. Am I missing how to do this? Ideally, reopening Obsidian (after reboot) would restore the last active workspaces/windows.

Cool trick for UUID v4 auto-generation for new notes via template, using the Templater plugin. Just include this in the frontmatter of the template note, and whenever you create a new note with it, it will automatically generate a UUID v4
---
uuid: <%*
function generateUUID() {
let dt = new Date().getTime();
let uuid = 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-4xxx-yxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx'.replace(/[xy]/g, function(c) {
let r = (dt + Math.random() * 16) % 16 | 0;
dt = Math.floor(dt / 16);
return (c === 'x' ? r : (r & 0x3 | 0x8)).toString(16);
});
return uuid;
}
tR += generateUUID();
%>

the `smart connections` obsidian plugin is surprising useful. local RAG on your own vault is awesome

I've been using Obsidian for a couple years, but mostly as a secondary note keeping tool.
But a couple things just clicked in my head and I'm now working it into my system as one of my primary tools. More thoughts soon.

is there an efficient and safe way to bulk change tags for notes in my vault? like if i wanted to change a specific tag from #personal to #admin (for example) what's the best way to do it 👀
if you're wondering why this or that feature hasn't been added to Obsidian, remember we only have three full-time developers (and not trying to grow the team)
currently Obsidian for Android requires full file access permissions because it's necessary for certain third-party sync tools and interoperability — but some users prefer narrower permissions
in an upcoming version we're adding this option, do the tradeoffs make sense here?

I wondering if there is an integration when I bookmark something in Farcaster, it would create a note in my Obsidian vault. I have a “quick capture” folder where stuff goes when I share via iOS, so something similar to that.
For /obsidian users looking to introduce AI in a free & local way, I made a tutorial evaluating the various plugins and how to get started with smart connections ✨

Put together another plugin that isn't listed yet, but is available on github
It uses OpenAI or Claude (take your pick, byok) to generate tags. Your existing tags will be factored in, contributing to a knowledge base over time.
Can be run on current file, current folder, etc. Command prompt and ribbon for easy access.

Obsidian is such a cool software to organize your writings and ideas.
I am in love with the Second Brain concept. Files becoming constellations fit perfectly with the sci-fi universe I develop.
Have you tried it ? What are your tips and favorite extensions ?

I have really enjoyed learning a ton from people in this subreddit. Honestly, would love to get more conversations going on warpcast. I think we can do it 👀
If you're an obsidian user I'm curious: why do you use obsidian and what do you use it for?

Updated my Anki facts and started writing down notes of books I’ve read in my Obsidian. I am starting to life live to the fullest
Also I feel like I’m using obsidian like a noob. I just put hashtags on the top, and tag related pages if I remember they exist
Is there some AI which will make the connections that I forgot exist, or remind me of the tags I previously used and should include again?

New video ✨ how to migrate OR backup notes to Obsidian 📝
I initially didn’t migrate my notion notes to obsidian… expecting them to be there when I needed them… and they were, but they were on their way to being automatically deleted 😦 I lost several notebooks in OneNote due to a cloud sync error...
Just to be safe, I decided to migrate all of my other notes into obsidian to create a markdown backup. I hope this video helps inspire you to do the same, while showing you some tips on how to optimize for different note taking system migrations ✨

Ok, I finally caved and downloaded Obsidian and used it to write my last Orbiter blog post. It’s really freaking good. I held out so long because people over complicated their descriptions of what it is and what it does.
Looking for an Obsidian plugin that integrates with the ChatGPT desktop app. Something like an MCP server (used w/ Claude Desktop), but unsure how to make it work. Anyone seen a solution for this?
After making many videos on Obsidian & how my personal knowledge management system operates, I made a video that goes into why I actually switched to Obsidian in the first place:
