š The speaker needed a note-taking app to organize and access their notes effectively.
š Despite initially loving Notion, the speaker found several issues with the app.
š The speaker ultimately switched from Notion to Obsidian as their preferred note-taking app.
š I was looking for a note-taking app that is easy to use and navigate, and allows me to link notes to each other.
āØ Notion fulfilled all my requirements and even introduced me to useful features like templates, databases, and sync blocks.
š Sync blocks in Notion allowed me to easily sync notes across multiple pages, improving my note-taking experience.
š Notion initially seemed perfect with its clean and customizable interface.
āļø However, I realized that spending too much time customizing Notion was hindering my productivity.
āØļø Additionally, the lack of keyboard shortcuts in Notion became a major inconvenience.
š Notion was distracting and frustrating for the speaker in meetings.
āļø The speaker needed a note-taking app that looked good, had useful features, and was easy to migrate from.
š„ Obsidian was chosen because it allowed the speaker to stay focused and had great features like data ownership and security.
š¦ Obsidian has great out-of-the-box features and themes.
š Obsidian's template feature is very useful for organizing notes and checklists.
š§ The folding feature introduced by Notion is essential for the speaker.
Obsidian does not have sync blocks like Notion, but it does have section previews which can be referenced in notes.
With Obsidian, you can create previews of specific headings within a note, rather than showing the entire note.
Unlike Notion, in Obsidian, you can choose the previews of your notes after writing them, allowing for more flexibility.
š Obsidian helps maintain productivity and focus without distractions.
š Obsidian allows for extensibility and customization through plugins.
š” The speaker highly recommends Obsidian for various tasks, such as note-taking and product management.
