I find the idea of owning a personal knowledge graph incredibly intriguing, but I’ve had trouble getting started. To be frank, I’m not quite sure what to include. A lot of the information that I might feel like I would want to save is also readily available via Google and can be retrieved faster by Googling than by diving into my Obsidian notes. I’m focusing primarily on personal use-cases, so nothing for business or freelancing. What do you use Obsidian for? And how much do you use it? Tens of notes per month… Or hundreds? Or even thousands?
I fill it with article notes, journal entries, and project plans that I’ll never look at again for the rest of my life.
Relatable. One of my fears is that this content that I’m devoting a lot of time towards writing and curating will never be helpful to me or read by me a second time.
