Hey @Dropbox, we the people would like basic emoji support in folders and filenames 📁

Hey #emoji lovers & #obsidianmd users, please let Dropbox know that emoji support is a basic expectation at this point.

🗳Upvote my request on Dropbox's forum: dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-ide…
Hey @Dropbox , it's almost 2022 and the 🌎 is using emojis.

They are not going away. But you've been dragging your feet on emoji support for folders and filenames for a few years now. It was a trickle in 2018, but it's almost 2022 and the dam has broken.
Your competitors are offering emoji support already. Emojis are unicode. This shouldn't be an issue. Let's make it happen.

This isn't the first, second, or third time emojis have been brought up on your forum.
I find this troubling. Is the inability for Dropbox to support emojis a leading indicator?

Is Dropbox slowly sinking? Should I head for the life boats now?

Is it a harbinger of it's inability to evolve?
We–the @Dropbox users for over a decade–kindly but firmly request emoji support in folders and filenames.

🙏

@EleanorKonik's latest @obsdmd Roundup is out, I have my cup of coffee, and now I get to explore the wild frontier...obsidianroundup.org/2021-10-23/
I'm a big fan of @HungSu's prompt generator. It's simple and yet effective at getting you to engage your thinking muscles, and because you don't know what the next prompt will be, it keeps things interesting.
I just noticed @TfTHacker prepend's their plugins with "Obsidian42" which makes it really nice to see more from the same developer if you like their style.

I'm personally interested in how Readwise can "smartly" import my book notes into my note-making space.

lu.ma/v89ay8qh
What type of "smart" import am I looking for?
1. Can it add new book highlights without overwriting the whole file? Because once I start note-making, I don't want my connections to be erase.

What is sensemaking?

In short, it's making sense of the world around us.

Good sensemaking illuminates our thoughts and guides our actions—adding clarity and enrichment to every moment of our lives.

A thread 🧵
If we can improve our sensemaking by even a tiny bit, we can greatly improve the quality of our inner world and the quality of our contribution to the world around us.
One supercharged, healthy, and sustainable way to improve our sensemaking is through a process I call note-making.

There are many note apps out there...but among them...

Obsidian is one of one—without equal—an app of apps.

It's a generational level event.

Here are 8 ways Obsidian (@obsdmd) is changing the game...& the 2 forces driving it.

A love-thread🧵
This is a celebration and a love letter. It's a celebration because after 15 trailblazing months of Obsidian being in beta, this week marks the official launch of Obsidian's mobile app. 🚀
This is also a love letter. Because for free, Obsidian is empowering anyone from around the world—with a computer and a desire to think better—a way to do it.

What I see that gets me fired up, is when people with platforms—people with positions of responsibility—are making money encouraging others to over-collect, over-highlight, and yet under-think.

Why do I care❓

Mini 🧵 (1/6)
Because they are teaching people to develop the habits that will form a toxic relationship to Knowledge in the long-term. (2/6)
And when that toxic relationship—based on FOMO, "Shiny Object Syndrome", and superficial thinking—backfires 3-5 years down the road...

...people will either become disillusioned with PKM or they will think *they* are the problem, losing some self-worth and feeling shame. (3/6)

What is PKM?

PKM is a new term to describe an old problem:

"How do we make sense of the world?"

⚜️Maybe you're trying to get through history class...or write your dissertation for a PhD.
⚜️Maybe you've gone down the internet rabbit hole into some fascinating topic but don't want to forget everything by next week. Image
⚜️Maybe you're putting together a grocery list or a list of todos for the day.
⚜️Maybe you're working your way in a new career, trying to track who knows who, and how, and how that's relevant to your aspirations.
