if there was, i didn't get the memo. must be in the water 😅

very cool! congrats. What might this mean for you Kevin and Dendron in general? I hope all your dreams come true

Woah that's awesome

I also found out the people behind obsidian went to the same college as me

Yep I love their textbooks

it means that I'm going all in on Dendron and that we're going to be around for a long time to come 🙂

woohoo

Sounds like Adam hunt would love dendron https://overcast.fm/+LfVOmI9o4

need to set aside some dedicated time to reach out to people 😅

^me learning vim and dendron concurrently

I can never give up my arrow keys 😄

whenever I try to get into vim I try a couple vimtutor lessons and then i lose interest lol

it takes a while to ge tthe hang of it. but once you're in, you can never go back 😅

not learning vim prevents me from getting 60% keyboards and my wallet thanks me for that

haha, fair enough

but once in a while I get reminded that I should try again

I've tried several times in the past year so I had a bit of priming on the basics. That certainly helped. When I first tried it with vscode I was baffled as to why the extension overwrote "ctrl"+"c"/"v"/"x" by default with no explanation. There is a setting to toggle this waaay at the bottom of the extension's settings The breakthrough (or straw that broke the camel's back) was to use the settings-sync extension between vscode-insiders and vscode. that way I could use vscode and vscode+vim on the same workspace. If I came to a keybinding hitch that I didn't want to solve in the moment, then I could switch right over to the other window. This also meant that I could track the evolution of my settings using version control :D... Most importantly, there was no more fear that vim would break my concentration and burn up mental energy at inopportune moments. After a couple of days of ironing out kinks (including adding a .vimrc with "imap jj ") I started to see net improvements in my editing efficiency. now I'm just using one of the standard vim cheat-sheets to gradually introduce new skills.

that sounds like a good workflow. I'm tempted...

lol true, I was like "using h j k l instead of arrow keys? That's insane!" when I first learned vim After 1 month using vim: installs vim mode on every app

Can control my mouse with my keyboard. So even that became no longer needed xD.

I love using j/k to navigate through my mail and such, but I really don't find modal editors intuitive. I think Vim's brutal minimalism goes too far when compared with the Sublime-style command palette

I'd really like to see a VS Code option that disables extension/default keymaps and just lets me figure out what I find comfortable -- I spend my entire day in this tool now haha

when you start using vim, everything looks like a modal editor interface... 🙄 i think with all things, there's a balance to be had. modal editing works great for most cases but extra context helps a ton. vscode is where i am most of the time now 😅

I think I saw a foot pedal somewhere to help switch modes lol

Reminds me of the bcon pedal? https://bcon.zone/ Or you can make your own with a https://makeymakey.com/ 🙂 )

Some of the early computing interfaces had a foot pedal, so they were called

this was what I saw I think : https://github.com/alevchuk/vim-clutch

I have a giant MX style switch in a box somewhere that I bought as a joke. I could maybe use that for something like this 😄

I'm not sure which channel to use, so I'll post it here. Something I quite like about Obsidian is this plugin: https://github.com/tgrosinger/slated-obsidian It adds recurring tasks, which is really cool. However, I mainly wanted to point out its command to move tasks. Here's a little screen grab showing what a moved task looks like.
