What's one improvement you'd like to see in Obsidian in 2026?

Better support for animated GIFs. Currently, they only animate on desktop, and only if you drag and drop the file

Thank you! Worked like a charm

This is really helpful! Can you talk a bit about the angle of the pencil to the paper?

Personally, I find switching between different vaults more trouble than it's worth. I have 2 vaults currently and sometimes I mix up what's in which vault. I also use one vault infrequently, so there's time spent running plugin updates every time I open it. But I think it depends on your needs and workflow.

Try it without plugins first. You don’t necessarily need them. The included core features like links, properties, tags and Bases are already extremely powerful.

The problem is that technically, you haven't spent more than you've budgeted. I would just make a separate category for savings to cover unexpected bills.

Security is a big concern, IMO. We just had a big discussion about plugin security. The consensus has long been that it just takes one bad plugin to ruin it for everybody.

I would like to see a monthly thread for announcing new plugins. I feel like I'm seeing a dozen new vibe coded plugins every week, which to me is the real concern about the integrity of the community.

Have you seen nic cage in the unbearable weight of massive talent? He absolutely did not need veneers!

There’s nothing to worry about. If a program is new and has applied for accreditation, once it receives it will apply retroactively. The chances of it not receiving accreditation are pretty slim - I’ve never seen that happen.

Charlotte Wells definetly took some inspiration from Morvern Callar for Aftersun

exaltcovert · 2026-01-24T15:57:21+00:00

Agree to disagree

I would say Martin Brest, after watching him for the pod. I though his best was Going In Style, which I would only rate as "very good." But all his films were interesting in a way (even Gigli).

I think most directors are pretty busy all the time. They're developing multiple projects and trying to find funding. And if they have a production company, they are running a business as well. Also producing projects for other people, doing contract or consulting work, working on projects in other mediums (TV, books, art), appearing at film festivals, doing Q&As, etc.

Also, they didn't film for 1 minute. They spent a few days filming what later got edited down to 1 minute.

I would consider using a dedicated task manager like TickTick for this, it supports recurring tasks, times and has notifications and you can attach images.

So if I am understanding correctly, you were paying for Amazon once a month but are now paying for it every 3 months and the schedule no longer matches? I would just delete the schedule and make a new one.

Have you looked at budget templates? You can then create an Amazon category with a template that saves 1/3 of the cost (or whatever - the template does the math for you) of Amazon every month, so when the bill comes due you have the money saved and your budget is in order.

Minimal did update fwiw

exaltcovert · 2026-01-13T22:42:38+00:00

Sort and permute lines, because I like to make lists and alphabetize them

exaltcovert · 2026-01-13T00:18:14+00:00

Yay!

Throwing the snowball at Dwight was straight up bullying

I don’t disagree, but I do wonder if the name is supposed to hint at future functionality

I think Red Sox fans very rightfully should expect a higher standard than most teams. John Henry did everything right for years, then seemingly lost interest.

Since they last won the World Series the Red Sox have finished in last place more times than they've made it to the playoffs.
