If you are into the @obsidian #Obsidian #notes app – you’d like to know that you can sync your notes using Nextcloud!

While at it, let us know what your favorite Obsidian feature is – perhaps it can inspire us for our Notes app!

Well I don't use Obsidian, but even though I've been wanted to leave Evernote for many years now there's no working alternative that has the same functionality regarding sharing of notebooks. That's the critical feature needed.

backlink tracking & internal linking. Supporting the wiki esque [[ ]] syntax and being able to use it to jump between notes. Simply recognizing that syntax and providing the details in the API would be plenty for other tools to build upon.

I also use simplemind for mindmapping

integration into #nextcloud works beautifully

Can nextcloud sync to iOS devices the same way iCloud Drive can, acting as a real filesystem (for example, writing to the files with Siri Shortcuts)?

Funnily enough i synced it to nextcloud before i even knew there is a premium obsidian plan which gives me an option to sync :adragnmlem:

Notice that #Obsidian is a proprietary app, there are other #FOSS apps that use #Markdown files and that can easily sync via #Nextcloud like #Logseq.

And @qownnotes in particular has integration with Nextcloud specifically.

first of all: Please enable links between Markdown files.

I started suggesting this 5 years ago https://github.com/icewind1991/files_markdown/issues/99

This is exactly what I do with my setup. I have a Mac, a Chromebook, a Linux box, and an Android phone all syncing Obsidian this way.

So far, so good!

Great feature #nextcloud, I used this functionality already with a workaround by using a library inside my Nextcloud folder structure.

Would be great to have a possibility to use a dedicated folder inside my Nextcloud, which may be a groupfolder or even change the dependency so that obsidian notes can be distributed to the specific locations by defining topics (specific clients/projects) and rout the .md files to these folders.
