That was an awfully formatted “auto-tweet”. Sorry about that. Microformats are hard to get right I guess…

Your website looks great! And I love how you kept the various designs you have had over the years. I see that you’re using umami analytics, would you recommend it?
“Keeping accessible format playlists has some appeal, although potentially a lot of manual work unless I found some way to transform the csv files I downloaded from Exportify into a blog post.”
This is actually how I post my playlists. Exported csv files and a Jekyll template. There must be a Wordpress plugin for this, there’s one for everything 😅
“What readers are people using? I alternate between Indigenous on Android and yarr but I feel like I’m missing something”
I was using yarr and Indigenous on iOS and replaced both with Together. I would prefer a non-React based alternative, but it just works.
“Since Obsidian is really just reading from a local file system, you could use any number of application to sync that directory between devices. I think something like Dropbox would work but I’m thinking about going with Syncthing.”
I had not thought about it. I’m giving Trilium a few weeks to see if it sticks, but your suggestion is definitely worth trying. Thank you.
“I’ve been struggling with the same. I like Notion but I don’t think the mobile experience works as well as it does on desktop. Trilium is the easiest to setup but I the UX makes it harder to work with than Notion for me. Overall Obsidian is closer to what I need but I don’t want to fully move to it until I setup my own sync server that doesn’t rely on their servers.”
I like that Obsidian Sync enables E2E encryption, but $10 a month for that feature is out of my budget. I didn’t know you could actually self-host it? How are you planning to do that?
