Canvases as a visual index/MOC to collect notes on a specific topic. That’s my main use.

I have used them as a cork board for notes when planning writing (much like Scrivener). I’ve even got templates that have images of an index card to type over.

Just looked at Sleek (which I hadn’t heard of before) and looks pretty good. Thanks. I’ve been using the Obsidian plugin which has been fine up until now.

I do the same thing. I’ve tried Kavita and Audiobookshelf and ended up just keeping the books on a network share and then accessing them through Calibre. I am sideloading to a Kindle though.

I had trouble for a period with my vaults syncing on icloud. It was really frustrating so I looked at other sync methods. (I think it was actually the amount of plugins I was using.) icloud did start working again with my smaller vaults. Now I keep my main vault synced by WebDav on my NAS with a daily backup by the NAS & my little vaults on icloud. Has been working really well.

Didn’t the OP say they wanted to sync across two different devices (and I assumed they couldn’t simply sunc using a shared storage.)

Try Remotely Save plug-in.

https://github.com/remotely-save/remotely-save

It syncs with Dropbox, Onedrive, S3 and WebDav. It has lots of settings like folders you can ignore, filetypes, etc. A number of experimental fearures that have worked when I tried them. You can set it to manually or automatically sync.

I’ve used it for my main vault using a self-hosted WebDav for over a year and been pleased with its performance. I make sure I keep a regular backup of the vault as well just in case.

I would imagine you could use the Excalidraw plugin as well for making handwritten notes and diagrams, too.

Very interesting. I wonder to what extend fans’ ages alter the ratings?

In Doctor Who fandom, whenever the question “Who is your favourite Doctor?” pops up, the majority tend to say the current one. It also seems to be that this is responded to by younger fans/audiences. I wonder if it’s the same with Trek. Because of my age, I’ll ALWAYS prefer classic DW to recent stuff. There’s an element of nostalgia.

My first Trek was TOS and it’s what I think of AS Trek primarily. I wasn’t into TNG at all (because of my age and I’d moved away from stuff like this for a time). DS9 and, particularly, Voyager would rate mire highly as they were on when I was watching TV in the late 90s. I like SNW because it echoes TOS. While I’ll watch other Trek, it doesn’t have the same impact on me.

Jeffrey Hunter is pretty wooden in the role (as are almost all the actors in The Cage). He comes across as a flat, somewhat listless characters with issues with women. Anson Mount plays the role with a much better sense of the humanity of Pike.

I’d love to see a literal remake but there are scenes that just wouldn’t work (eg. the creepy scene where the young female ensign speaks to him).

I wasn’t that impressed with M’Benga in season 1 but he’s had excellent character development this season. After this episode, I think he could be my favourite of the SNW crew!

Mostly on a basic kindle. I read pdfs and comic books on an ipad.

I’m waiting for a decent colour eink reader about same size as my kindle with stylus/writing support. From what I can see, they are nearly there… but not quite.

Take a look at OpenAudible.

I tried all sorts of stuff before getting OpenAudible and it works brilliantly. It costs about $20 (and there’s an upgrade about every year costing $8) but I’ve not upgraded and it still works perfectly.

It just stores them to the folder you choose as a vault for your notes. I have seen people put their vaults on a USB stick which they encrypt for security.

No web version of Obsidian as far as I know. Have you tried SimpleNote?

Have you tried Remote Save plugin?

I use it to sync from a webdav on my NAS at home to work computer if I ever need it. It also syncs from services like OneDrive, Dropbox, S3 etc.

There are other versions of similar syncing.

2nd vote for Obsidian.

I’ve moved from OneNote and Evernote about two years ago to Obsidian. I tried out (and still do look at) all the note-keeping apps and Obsidian beats hands down. For me, the major determiner was that it saves to plain text files that I can just transfer into any future app easily. The other aspect is that plug-ins enable you to tailor how Obsidian functions to your own working processes.

I’ve found keeping Obsidian in sync over iCloud pretty good as long as you keep the number of plug-ins on phone and iPad limited.

Thanks. I’ll take a look. I’ve wanted to move away from gmail for a while now and this is cheap enough to try out.

What’s PurelyMail like? They seem very cheap.

Thank you. I’ll take a look. Your suggestion has also led to the Obsidian/Memos plug in which might also be a good link.

I just wish the devs would simply as a means of exporting/importing a JSON file or something. It would then open up the app to a much wider audience as it’s really good.

The Beast You Are by Paul Tremblay. Short stories.

Let me know if you find it.

When I mentioned this on Discord to the devs, they didn’t seem to find the idea of SSH-ing into wherever Memos is served much of an issue. I ran it in a Docker container on a Synology NAS and lack the skill (or confidence) of poking around too much in parts of the NAS that aren’t readily accessible.

I’d love to use memos (and have tried using it) but the backup/export is virtually non-existent.

I use mac, too, but haven’t encountered this. You’ve done all the usual haven’t you: checked Obsidian is latest release, installed another theme? Reinstalled Obsidian?

I’ve had issues with themes but found they tend to be theme-specific. Minimal is always a goid one to try (again, young probably done this).
