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.
