    Obsidian still seems like the ideal place to write academically. I'm applying to PhD programs and the networking of facts is killer for the way I write anyway. I did the same thing with simultaneous excel spreadsheets with my active MS Word document. Definitely clunky. Also, file sharing needs - I love Dropbox for near live sync sharing! I wish more people knew about it.

    they¨re done with Home Screens around 00:53:00 minutes. 01:38:00 they've covered timery app 01:56:00 Myre critigues Spark no column and as opinionated software check mark 02:15:00 they've covered obsidian. but yeah there really is way too many references with zero timestamps.

    I moved from Hotmail over to Gmail back in the day simply because Outlook Express (which was Hotmail) changed the UI and visual stuff far too much. Some companies don't know when to leave well enough alone. and practically none give the end user options or choices on how they want a layout to look. Luminos sounds a lot like Star Tracker. I'll have to check it out. ooh seeing man made stuff is more advanced than my one. Also going to mention the plant one to my mom as she likes to garden and stuff.

    I understand, but what has been interesting is I find the concept of the apps and set up they talk about and usually can set it up for free in Android.
