Finally succumbed to the marketing and tried out Obsidian and, unfortunate to admit, it’s been pretty nice so far. Just having the ability to live-preview rendered Markdown files with proper indentation and ordered listing a significant upgrade to the Sublime Text experience. I don’t for a second buy any of this “second brain” bullshit I keep seeing promo’d everywhere (and which completely turned me off of it until now), but I can certainly see myself getting good value out of its ability to easily handle and display several nested folders’ worth of offline Markdown files, while retaining my ability to manage my own version control externally. I plan on trialling it for another week and if I don’t run into any issues, I think I will transfer the bulk of my documentation over to it.

Otherwise, the usual.
