Purpose

Trying to evaluate if Obsidian can easily replace my Evernote usage. I will catalog my use cases and create example notes of the types of content and uses I have.

Use Cases

• Sync

  • Obsidian Sync seems to be the easiest option and once I've committed to Obsidian, I will pay for it.

• Audio Journal

• Bills Note - Password Vault

  • Bills - It didn't handle moving over the encrypted note... not surprising. Not that big a deal. Can decrypt them easily enough, but can Obsidian be used as a password vault?
    • Meh. Used Meld Decrypt and it "works" but not well for my use case. Would need to switch to using an actual password vault, which isn't a terrible thing and I already pay for one.

• Daily Notes

  • I know this is robustly supported. Probably even better ones out there. If I were to incorporate using Todoist into my life, I could use a Plugin to sync it. From what I have been reading, that doesn't seem necessary and is likely overly complex.

  • Tasks

    • Use Cases
      • Capture tasks from within notes, such as meetings
      • Categorize tasks based on their purpose
      • View what tasks I have to-do broken down by purpose
      • Capture which tasks I completed on which day
      • Nice to have: Monthly Completed tasks List
      • Nice to have: Reoccuring tasks

• Remarkable Integration

  • Evernote doesn't do this particularly well.
  • Should be able to sync notes directly into Obsidian from Remarkable to better make use of the paper substitute.
• Nested Folders
  • I just realized that Obsidian can have Nested folders.
