I recently used linked thinking in Obsidian to do some critical meme analysis for therapy. It was a good exercise in creating index notes, e.g. a meme crossing over Marvel and The Good Place wouldn't fit in a folder for either one.

I'm just using emacs org-mode and Obsidian for task management, and keeping track of my learning new code-y things... but no backlinks or anything yet. Was trying Zettlr as well. Waiting for an excuse to get really fancy with it.

I stumbled onto this forum despite never having heard of PKMS. Does using Notion’s applicant tracker to track people who want to rent my room count?

I guess the difference between PKMS and KMS to me is primarily who's using it. So yes? 😆
