Was getting confused that some of the options and layouts in 2023 don't match with what was recorded for this video. For anyone confused, I guess that Starred Notes has been replaced by Bookmarks.

"The Starred Plug-in has been replaced by the Bookmarks plugin which has many more features and is a much better experience. You will find your starred notes in the Bookmarks plugin. Always check the release notes to be up to date." Just an example.

I agree that the focus in Obsidian is on 'writing, thinking and linking' rather than formating - not to be distracted by proprietary functions.

“Writing, thinking and linking. “ Thanks for boiling it down to, what I would call, a first principle.

I just discovered Obsidian and it blows my mind how impressive it is.

I just came to know about a book called "building a second brain" by Tiago Forte. From there, I have started exploring note taking apps. First time while I encounter with obsidian, it was really daunting. But your videos encourage to learn this. Thank you very much.

Currently on this journey my self. Actually found this channel after watching Tiagos video with Nick!

'Starring' a note has now changed to 'Bookmark'.

Was about ready to give up on Obsidian till I found this series. Now I think I'm hooked. Excellent content.

So far the best beginner walkthrough playlist I've come across, thank you for taking things one step at a time!

I absolutely love these tutorials. I've been toying around with keeping a commonplace book for a few years now but held back because the time intensity of writing/printing manual cards was too much and I never knew about programs like this. You're enthusiasm and clarity is a great combination! Your intros are not just filler, they're helpful primers for mindsets before the video and as I've mentioned, your enthusiasm throughout the video really brings me along with you in getting excited about the reasons why I'd want to do this and become better at it! Great great videos. Thanks so much for making them!

I can't thank you enough Nick!. Obsidian has really been a game changer to me.

This is SO GOOD! I love how you structured your tutorials. They are not too dense either. I’m falling in love more and more with this app. Thanks!

Obsidian has changed many of the defaults to what you suggest in this video! They must be watching. Even so, this is still a great tutorial for learning the basics of the settings and how to work with them.

These videos are great for a newbie like me getting started and finding their way around MD. It would be helpful to clarify a bit where some things are that you refer to, e.g., I still can't find anything called "Tag pane" and, in settings, it wasn't immediately obvious when you were in "Files and links" instead of "Editor".

thanks for this series, it's been quite a journey in many ways ;-) If you ever do an update to this video there is loads more options to mess around with, and I personally was very annoyed with the "Editor - Readable line length" option. In the latest version of Obsidian (0.15.6) it's on by default - and it makes the text in the editor appear in the middle on large monitors, life if you in Word begin with several tabs. Was quite frustrating before I found it, but now it's looking really nice.

Very nicely presented. Thanks

Your tutorials are gold for beginners. Just one though...the commands have changed with Obsidian updates and it's confusing to look for icons that are no longer present. Quick notes in the comments section would do. Thank you.
