    +1 and curious, too I would go further than that also. It directly mirrors https://anytype.io/ but without the desktop or mobile clients to actually store the workspace on your device.

  6. Browser extension to clip websites and download them into a readable markdown file.
    > Not really. Obsidian has its shares of problems too, and most of them originate from using Markdown. Aha. Which problems do you mean? > Markdown is a freeform text-format, and works very well for writing text, but it really sucks for data and structured content. Joplin is using md to. And if Joplin does a good job on "data" and "structured content" (whatever you mean by that) by separating that in their DB, it's a big NO for me since it's a closed silo. This: https://github.com/blacksmithgu/obsidian-dataview and b) easy to fix since it's a text file. Gosh! > And gosh, Obsidian has really a huge amount of plugins for data-handling. And gosh, this is a good thing! > At some point, it was so bad that there were multiple competing task-plugins which broke each other just because they had different formatting for dates. Installing multiple task plugins shows that something is "broke" on the user side. It's not the fault of Markdown or Obsidian. Just have a look on: https://github.com/ivan-lednev/obsidian-day-planner or https://github.com/obsidian-tasks-group/obsidian-tasks and nvim <a href="https://github.com/epwalsh/obsidian.nvim">https://github.com/epwalsh/obsidian.nvim</a>.

    Just curious, any reason you're using TMarkor instead of Markor? (https://github.com/gsantner/markor/) Only asking since this was also the editor I ended up settling on in Android, but it seems like TMarkor is just a repackaging of Markor without any references to its forked(?) source. My requirement was that the repo had to be open source so that I could audit the repo and compile the APK from source, as well as potentially fork it for personal modifications if needed.
