@josschuurmans @obsidianmd @obsidian @nickmilo I’ve used both links and tags, but when the system began to feel ragged (and when it started introducing delays — “Will I link or tag this?”), I launched the Great Tag Apocalypse and converted ALL tags to links.

In practice, though, I’ve found that for status (#ToRead or #Draft) and certain markers (#Idea and #Insight), tags just “feel” better to me. I realize this makes no objective sense.

So: some tags are back.
