  2. A second brain, for you, forever. Obsidian is a powerful knowledge base that works on top of a local folder of plain text Markdown files.
    Obsidian is my favorite. Love that my notes are just plain text/markdown files. https://obsidian.md.

    I use vanilla* VS Code with the built-in Markdown previewer. My notes are a flat structure of Markdown files (personal) or a single folder for each project (work). *I have a plugin called Markdown Paste[0] to automatically save images from the clipboard into a designated subfolder and insert the corresponding Markdown underneath my cursor. But it's nothing that can't be done by manually saving an image into a folder and typing the corresponding Markdown by hand [0]: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=telesoho.vscode-markdown-paste-image.
