A new year brings with it a new commitment to using @obsidian.md for all my writing needs. Grateful for any advice.

Today I deactivated my X account. I thought about hyperventilating for a few seconds, then came to my senses. This is what freedom feels like.

@neuranne.bsky.social I think I might be about to commit to using Roam after years of messing about with other apps. I know you're a long-term user of it - is there anything you can say, or advice you could give, which might tip me over the edge??

Listening to post-rock music is helping me process my inner depths. Sounds fun, no? Do you have any post-rock recs for me??

A late night isn't that bad, really

I wonder when my IRL contacts are going to finally join Bluesky so I can leave and try Mastodon instead.

Just had the revelation that journaling is good for me when it's not first thing in the morning.
November 20, 2024 at 7:32 PM
I need a note making strategy. I'm thinking journaling and quick through-the-day notes in a paper journal, then transfer more permanent notes and things I need to action into Obsidian or another online tool. But paper journaling must be central.

I want the internet to go away so I use paper and pen and not be distracted away from it.

Wondering if I should buy a posh new journal, or a pair of Converse.

The Dave who got up earlier is always having a better time than the one who got up late.

Org Mode means I look forward to taking notes and organising my life. Weird.
November 14, 2024 at 12:54 PM
It's just a lot more fun and things flow better over here.
I prefer using org-mode to Obsidian, Logseq, Tana, etc

Enjoying highlighting and annotating PDFs in Org Mode. I can open a PDF and my notes in split screen. So useful and so easy. #orgmode #emacs

Who would be so kind as to take a look at my emacs config file and give me some tips/suggestions as to how I could improve my workflow? #orgmode #emacs

This is one vain panda.

Today I thought about the prospect of quitting Medium from 2025 and blogging in my quiet and empty corner of the internet for a while.

I have to carry on until 2025 because I have a 365 photo project going on over there.

But Medium has kind of lost its allure for me.
November 12, 2024 at 4:10 PM
I've not written publicly for days. It feels like I'm done. Life is so busy. But I do want to carry on.

I remember in November 2023 I was contemplating which PKM app I could use through 2024.

I failed beyond dismally, in that this year I've used over ten, just flitting between them.

So now, in November 2024, I find myself wondering which PKM app I could commit to through 2025.

Someone help me!
