If you host your email server would you wonder if you should block emails from GMail addresses?

@pedersen @markmcelroy

Wait, doesn't store just standard Markdown? /s

Jokes aside, I much prefer syntax i.e. `key:: value` because it can be used for blocks too, not only the page, without taking too much space.

I am not aware of any script that convert YAML frontmatter to Logseq page properties but in case you want to go back there is this export script for Logseq:

Please address whatever issue you have before joining a social platform, bye.

You are the one seriously replying to a joke 🤷🏻‍♂

You didn't tell me how you located the target table in a MD file that contains something else and how actually replace it with the new one. It's a program on its own, not just some piped Unix commands.

It would have been better if you said "there Markdown editors other than Obsidian and even Markdown command line tools and libraries".

The fact that you mentioned Unix tools for plain text files suggest that you are talking in a theoretical way with no actual practical experience with parsing Markdown. Maybe you don't even know what an AST is.

No offense, but you're taking the stereotype of my joke to a new level.

@luke

OK let's see your Bash script where you reorder the elements of a Markdown table in alphabetical order using sed, awk, grep etc.

It seems to me that it is you who like Obsidian too much to admit FOSS is as much important as standard formats.

Also people who like Unix tools should be happy to see what you can do with Babashka and Logseq's AST.

@luke

If you mean Unix tools, those are for plain text, not for Markdown that has tables, indented lists etc.

On the other hand not only provides handy HTTP/JSON API, but you can also access the AST with command line tools (using Babashka) that basically means the files are already parsed for your convenience and you can use whatever other tool including the Unix ones to interact with it.

Here there is an example of command line tool (it doesn't depend on Logseq being running nor being installed):

@omnivore That being said, I went back and experimented with keyboard shortcuts in Omnivore, and realized there are several of shortcuts that aren't yet documented, such as deleting (#), archiving (E), and labeling (L).

The overdue fall of twitter sent me searching for better ways to follow smart people online. What I didn't expect was having my life changed by 3 #OpenSource apps!

1️⃣ @Mastodon, where I now follow lots of my faves and post my lil thoughts. No ads, so refreshing!

2️⃣ @omnivore, I'm in love with you as my beautiful home for reading. Most writers never stopped sending newsletters, but my email inbox was a nightmare place for them. Here they live happily with my #ReadItLater saves.

3️⃣ #Logseq, an exciting note-taker and #PKM. I imported my archives and now add notes from Omnivore (and #Snipd for podcasts). It's made connecting ideas a breeze. #ToolsForThought

I had quite a scary discussion with #Bing Chat which was hijacked by German security researchers and transformed into a pirate chatbot. Seconds later it asked for my personal information and sent it to the attackers. The thing is: Everybody can hijack Bing chat this way right now. It is not even hard - you don't have to be a hacker.
Microsoft told me they had heard the attack - and obviously weren't able to stop it from happen. My article (German):

Interesting how they identify "apps" and "web" with tech-bros' products.

#PhysicsFactlet
The dynamics of a rigid sphere can be surprisingly complicated. In fact, beside rotating around an axis, the sphere can also precess (i.e. the axis of rotation is itself rotating) and nutate (i.e. the axis of rotation oscillates back and forth).

Euler's angles are particularly useful to describe such motion, as:
* Rotation is a change in the third Euler angle.
* Precession is a change in the first Euler angle.
* Nutation is a change in the second Euler angle.

Just in case you don't know: Logseq stores data in Markdown files just like Obsidian but they are standard Markdown indented lists using dashes.

To some extent one can even use Logseq and Obsidian with the same folder.

It's up to the user to avoid special syntax and this is true both in Logseq and Obsidian (the latter's strenght is the ecosystem of plugins that often adds their own syntax).

Also notice that ``,`[[wikilinks]]`, and YAML headers to store metadata are not standard Markdown.

@marcusolsson @omnivore

Exactly my thought when I tried their plugin for that takes into account how things are supposed to be organized there.

I don't know about Obsidian, but in the Logseq plugin the user can setup a template for imported articles, that is a really nice thing.
