For me, it was a wiki/knowledge base - I've had dozens over the years as I've tried to find the 'right' one, but I'm currently a fan of @bookstack@fosstodon.org. My brain's not always the most reliable, and so my wiki becomes my 'external brain'. A lot of people are using things like Obsidian/Notion/etc in the same way.
I'm using obsidian at the moment, but bookstack looks pretty nice. I'll have to look at that more and see if it would be a good replacement. Can I ask what made bookstack your current driver?
The shelves->books->pages metaphor sort of works for me. It lets me categorise my thoughts in a way that works for me. The lead dev is also really communicative, and it's been really easy to deploy and run. I've been meaning to try and find some time to contribute some hacks to it.
Ideally, I'd love a way to make Bookstack and Obsidian work together...
The ability to insert flow charts on the go with the draw.io integration built in is amazing for technical documentation.
Ah yeah that makes sense. That organization would be slick, since obsidian feels like it's all over the place unless you micromanage backlinks. I'll look some more into it once I wrap up with Homepage. Another post got me started on that lol
