What is something you can’t live without, technology wise that saves you time?
I have to say it’s my virtual assistant I’ve made. It saves me a lot of time with making reminders and such alarms for meetings or interviews, music etc.

I know people are going to come for me for this one, but definitely Notion. I know I don’t own my data and what not, really would love to switch to Obsidian at some point, but I have trouble with markdown and I really prefer “What you see is what you get” editors. I have Notion databases for keeping track of physical video games I own, I write all of my notes for D&D campaigns in there, I have a reminders and to-do page. It’s slow, it’s not very privacy focused, but it’s a dead simple and very feature packed tool to organize virtually anything.
As someone who loves both apps, you might be surprised with the functionality in Obsidian’s plugin platform. I have to-dos, kanban boards, book reviews, media embeds. You can even use JavaScript to code with your files and their properties (not that everyone needs to do that of course).
I use Notion at work still, but Obsidian has come really far since I first heard of it. I will say though migrating has not been an easy process.
Thanks for letting me know, the few times I had tried Obsidian in the past I was unaware of plugins. Sounds like some of them might be adding the functionality I’m looking for! I’ll definitely check it out again soon!
