Hey folks, for our inaugural post, share what your personal use case for Obsidian is. Are you writer, student, academic, or something else?

I use Obsidian for writing/worldbuilding notes, documentation for various technical things, and a catch-all scrap paper. I'm still working on putting together a good workflow, and I could probably be utilizing it a lot better.

I migrated from Evernote to Joplin because Evernote started charging. I migrated from Joplin because the sync was problematic and wasn't working correctly for me.

My biggest uses are my recipe collection, my bookmarks list, and where I keep notes and roadmaps for my personal hobby projects. I don't use it anywhere even close to its full potential. Links, for example, are nothing that I use and I can't find a compelling reason to do so. I use almost no formatting either. I do use tags, tho. I really don't need something with as much power as this has.
