Hey folks, for our inaugural post, share what your personal use case for Obsidian is. Are you writer, student, academic, or something else?
I use Obsidian for writing/worldbuilding notes, documentation for various technical things, and a catch-all scrap paper. I’m still working on putting together a good workflow, and I could probably be utilizing it a lot better.

As an academic I’ve used it for several years to track my classes, lecture ideas, etc., and more recently keeping a record of media consumption, movies, TV series, and novels.
I’d like to get more out of the data in my vaults but I struggle to grasp many of the most interesting community plugins such as Dataview. I really enjoy using Obsidian but suspect it’s challenging if you lack a programming background.
I use it as a second brain and to consolidate my notes for school.
My school notes include half of my undergrad in economics and all of my notes for the MBA program I’m going through right now.
The second brain part comes from all the notes I take all the content I consume about stuff, mostly books, though. I think it’s amazing that I can look at notes I took years ago and remember the context of my notes.
