Thank you for 800 subscribers on YouTube! I'm back and better than ever now, with many new ideas to share.
Can we get to 1k before the year's end?
I've now just dropped a video about this feature, just in time for @obsdmd to release it to the public!

I just so happened to have filmed a video about the voice dictation quick capture a couple of hours after this went out!
🔗 Link to watch is below...
Obsidian 1.15 is now available! Some highlights:
1. Mermaid diagrams use our new rendering engine, Pele, which renders up to 500 times faster and uses your theme's colors and fonts.
2. Voice capture on iOS: record and transcribe voice notes as you speak, even from the Lock Screen.
4. PDF export on mobile.
5. Smarter list editing: indenting or moving a list item now moves nested items too.
6. Accent-insensitive search: cafe matches café in suggestions.
7. Community plugins load faster when the app starts.
Turns out you can just use synci.io and it's really good
Let me glaze @tellahq for a moment please, cause I recently stepped away from Screen Studio, and this feels like picking up all the updates that they should have made, and more...
First of all, the video uploads to the web whilst I record, so I don't have to wait for hours to do this on my home Wi-Fi, editing on my laptop.
Second of all, agents can do everything, and I mean everything, so it fits into my Obsidian x Hermes content scheduling kanban workflow without a hitch.
It's like Screen Studio x Loom x Whatever tool edits with agents at the moment as well.
Kudos!
Sensational
Made the workflow I've run for the last year native to the app!

Another afternoon spent editing the hero rather than making content, will have everything put together soon!
I've been using Skool to run the PARAZETTEL Community for a year and a half, but paying $99/month for a rigid platform with limited features frustrated me.
There also wasn't much scope to change how the content was organised, so I've built a solution on Obsidian. Of course.
Introducing learn.parazettel.com, the PARAZETTEL Platform!
Right now it hosts Foundations, our live call calendar, and the courses and resources we've shared over the last three years, including the former flagship PARAZETTEL Obsidian vault.
This is another demonstration of how powerful Obsidian can be. I'm using it as the content backend for a learning platform, as well as for the website where I host all my articles.
We'll be hosting a workshop soon on how I'm using Obsidian to run multiple websites across multiple endeavours, and where AI and cloud agents fit into the process.

It's time for a fresh coat of paint site-wide as I welcome in the new PARAZETTEL Platform...
Also zoom in for a sneak preview of the new PARAZETTEL Platform!
Just bought a new mechanical keyboard - intending to travel less for a while (at least until next year, so I thought I'd upgrade things.
But now I need to buy a mouse - any suggestions? Because I don't really know what I'm looking for. Anything that's high quality has a shout, just let me know!
2000 followers on Medium! This is where it all started for me, so thank you if you've ever read an article, a tweet or watched a video, keeping the journey going.
Lots more to come, today no less -- keep your eyes peeled!
Getting fried by context switching instead of sustained focus 😂 I experience this all too much
Just because we can run 100 concurrent sessions at a time doesn’t mean we should.
I think we are going to see a lot of people burning out because of the speed they are working at with AI.
It’s sneaky. Because at first glance it looks like AI is doing the heavy lifting. But you are carrying the decisions, the orchestration, the ideas. And no matter what anybody says… when you amp that by 100x it’s going to take a toll.
Personally I’ve had to limit how much work in progress I do with my agents.
Again just becuase you can run at 100m an hour doesn’t mean you should.
