I've grown tired, or my wallet has, of the subscription based app. I'm not looking for anything in particular, so list your favorite Subscription free apps or Pay Once apps!

Obsidian for note taking

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

I was disappointed that obsidian did not have the ability to add check boxes to notes. I use google keep a lot to make checklists for myself. It also looks like it lacks collaboration.

I realize both of these points are outside the the point of the OP, but two things I noticed in using it. And would love to be proven incorrect on both.

You can create Check marks by using markdown inside the note.

- [ ] TEXTHERE this should provide a blank Check Box.

- [ x ] TXETHERE this should provide a ticked Check Box.

Thanks but that seems unsustainable to make a checklist for packing or a shopping list before going to the grocery store.

I consider obsidian a knowledge base, rather than a note taking app. I use both apple notes and obsidian for different purposes.

Makes sense. Obsidian was recommended to me as a non-Google replacement for Keep. So it was in my head it was a sticky note app.

Actually sad I only discovered Obsidian a few months ago
