I could not be *MORE HYPED* that Obsidian has launched: https://obsidian.md 

• offline-first notetaking (no waiting for a web app to load)
• flat files! beautiful, plain markdown
• wiki-style linking, automatic backlinks, and graph view
• transclusion!
• powerful search

There is also a lovely, friendly, nerdy community -- chatting with the developers, releasing custom themes, imagining future plugins (it will be extensible!), and sharing organizational hot tips.

(Can't remember the last time I felt this warm and fuzzy about a software project)

Realized after the fact that this thread maybe makes it sound like I made Obsidian. I have nothing to do with it! I just helped beta test and I am a fan :~)

(Sorry to everybody who followed me probably thinking I am a genius software developer. Try: @obsdmd instead.)
