Honestly curious, as someone who keeps hearing a lot about "my daily notes" but who personally doesn't use them.

~~Also seeing lots of activity on the Obsidian subreddit and figured the Obsidian community on Lemmy could stand to have a post this month too.~~

For a while I had daily notes that had a dataview linking to other notes created on the same day as the daily note, then I had a weekly note that linked to all my daily notes created during that week number. The note itself was a place to centralize links to other notes, jot down what was going on, stuff like that.

In the end, it was creating more work than I wanted to do and I wasn't finding myself going back to review those daily or weekly notes. When I'm creating notes I never look at again, I know I'm wasting my time.
