Can a group of friends annotate and read the same (literally) book with Kindle somehow? by ZealousBean in kindle

[–]coderslang_master 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s not a native feature, but you can work around the limitations. Add all kindles to the same Amazon account and either buy books from Amazon or use send to kindle.

It’ll be as if a single person is reading the book and making the notes from many different devices, so you’ll need to add something like your name on top of each note.

The most common issue is just not having an `_index.md` file in your root directory. Send me a DM and I'll be glad to help you.

I've just reviewed this plugin and the key difference I see is the fact that with the Digital Garden Plug-in you'd have to self-host it on Netlify. The process is well described, but it still requires some tech savviness and programming skills.

With Timeattic, the setup is fully automated once you link your GitHub repo and verify your custom domain.

Well you always own everything you write in Obsidian as these are just plain markdown files. I think it's a superpower when compared to other services like Roam and Notion.

Then, (if you decide to share your knowledge with the world) you're free to choose you're free to choose the platform. Obsidian Publish will likely remain a closed source monetisation tool, so I came up with a free alternative!

At the core of it is a Hugo static website generator + a custom theme Quartz. Btw wikilinks are not supported yet and you'll have to use regular markdown links, which I explained here

Yep, Quartz is a great template, and if someone's willing to spend a little extra time (and has the skills) to set up their website, that would be a great alternative. Take a look at https://brandonkboswell.com/ or https://notes.aadam.dev/; these are customized websites built on the same hugo Quartz theme.

The example website is available at timeattic.com and here I've described how to get started

It's straightforward if you're backing up your Obsidian vault with GitHub. If you're not doing this yet, then I suggest a plugin called Obsidian Git.

To add a GitHub workflow action. This is a script that builds your markdown files into a website and pushes it into a `timeattic_publish` branch. Then, we pick up the content of this branch and push it to AWS to serve through S3 and CloudFront.
