Honestly curious, as someone who keeps hearing a lot about “my daily notes” but who personally doesn’t use them.

Also seeing lots of activity on the Obsidian subreddit and figured the Obsidian community on Lemmy could stand to have a post this month too.

    Besides my personal Obsidian vault, I’d always have a vault for each software project that I’m involved in. Having said that - my use of daily notes is twofold -

    • During meetings/calls - I’d quickly jot action items, or a brief bullet list of important key take-aways
      • Especially in conjunction with the Tasks plugin - I can quickly create a new task for myself, or for a peer (using their name as a tag). This way the tasks stay with their relevant context - the daily note they were created on, but I can still create a note with a task query that would give me a compiled list for tasks owned by a specific person, that would allow me to follow-up on them later.
    • As I work on programming tasks - I’d keep links, ideas, options gone-through-, or to-consider-
