@sjanep @tscriado We love sharing our experience. In fact, our research centre (16 projects) has an INF project with this purpose in mind, helping us.

So, we have 1 major vault for our project, 4 people take part. It's organized w/ and . Meeting notes, lit. notes, research, articles. Sync via Nextcloud. Sometimes we have conflicts. We add hashtags for todos or authorship.

Coding is in a separate, encrypted vault. Simple yet effective design: github.com/LaserStefan/obsidia

my new favorite word in japanese is `soumatou` and i'm calling my comprehensive filing and organization tree because if i understand correctly it's a word that means something like “when your entire life flashes before your eyes" and also something about a lantern.

my japanese is entirely due to and (hey ! ?)

Dare I say I have found my tribe here in ? I am going to spend a lot of time combing through the feed and doing lots of bookmarking. Yay! 😍 :ablobwave: Words cannot describe how much I have fallen into learning these apps and methodologies.

Are you into , , or other label/tag based organization? Your messages could easily sport `X-Priority` or `X-Label`.

Add your attachments directly to the email messages.

Collaborating on some software? It may (not) surprise you, but the Linux kernel actually *still* collaborates this way. And it's kind of awesome.

I'm pretty sure it's not, but there's no reason that review comments couldn't be an email with some fancy headers.

@geffrey @obsidian what a great idea! i should think about doing something similar once i feel like i can start going all everywhere, i'd totally public broadcast my research notes since most of it is public or was public at some point anyway.

i'm really sorry i missed your stream!

@henryfaber hi sorry to be a weirdo but i saw a flow diagram of a filing system on the forum and i would like to know if you have documented your organizational further because i'd also like a look at the map that is legible when scaled up to my vision requirements please and thank you? <3

@nickanderson @johnnydecimal @svw i will check out org markup but in my case i am currently facing a backlog of hundreds of omnifocus tasks, accumulated tasks in workshop notes and daily notes (markdown files in obsidian vaults with context markup (eg - [>])).

still figuring out territories. my most pressing tasks and open loops to close are all in markdown and dataview queries which makes me wonder what i should pivot to and organizationally i need to help.

@emory My advice is don't overthink it. Think big picture, put only what you need now in and then let your system evolve.

I've moved and combined sections, I've got 3 and four layers deep where I need them, I've used three digit numbers where I need the ability to have many more sections... So where I need it 24.12.005.15 is available.

Also use a good digital tool. means I can link between sections; so I can put all my notes about setting up some software tool in one section, reference it in another (i.e. how to set up a new machine), but if I move one of the sections the links still work..

Maybe *the* Johnny will have some thoughts?

okay i am trying to sandbox what a structure would look like for my life, and then perhaps vaulting out some portions of that. if anyone in mastodon has any favorite bookmarks i'd love to see some examples. i'm still mindmapping and scribbling and nowhere near done and i tend to over-taxonomize.

i have a lot of crossover between two households. e.g. MDM for kid devices, but different infrastructure and projects will emerge in either and not sure how to group things.

@emacsen
- select various line widths/grids/page backgrounds, so blank pages, check boxes, etc. (templates)
- backup to "the cloud" - so you have access on your computer/phone if you don't happen to have your handy
- read/edit PDF, epubs, etc.
- delete/undo/redo the various pen-types (pen/pencil/highlighter/paintbrush/...)
- copy/duplicate pages (I use this a lot when I'm speccing out process flows & presentations)
- copy/paste/resize/rotate elements - draw something in detail large enough to make it easy to edit, then resize it down so it's a small detail on the page
- convert hand writing to text
- email converted-to-text of page/pages or the underlying page(s)
- unlimited notebooks with unlimited pages (well, effectively) - so no trying to remember where you put the notes about X - they're all on their own notebook
- directory structure for notebooks and files (I use the approach so it's perfect for my structure)
- favourites

Um... Should I go on? 😂🤣

I'm no stranger to [notebooks][1] and [text files][2]. They're shockingly powerful.

[][jd] is also super cool. Sidenote - did you know that CommonMark doesn't care what's in the brackets as long as it matches something somewhere in your doc? True story!

When I get home I am

- doing a of Google Photos onto a local hard drive
- backing up Google Drive
- clearing my Laptop and PC of any files I don't need
- starting to organise the 1-3TB of digital detritus that I've accumulated over my life (maybe with , I'm not sure)

I don't want to be a digital hoarder!

I set up a Johnny Decimal system for myself earlier this year, but I sort of let it fall into a bit of a mess.

I'm diving back in with another attempt at solving my digital filing system.

I’m making a huge effort for putting every thing I have saved in a well-ordered folder system. I realised it’s way more difficult than I expected
