When to use HackMD, when to use Obsidian

• since HackMD and Obsidian (along with other tools) use Markdown, it's very easy to move notes between them
  • 1. three dot menu
  • 2. download Markdown
  • 3. save to correct directory on your computer
  • 4. in HackMD (optional, Save As Version)
  • 5. in HackMD, delete all note content and leave a header at top about # moved to wiki (wiki name)
  • 6. (if you're using Git) commit and push changes
• HackMD for synchronous things, like Zoom meetings
  • often "ephemeral"
• Obsidian for asynchronous, longer term writing
  • persistent, but not real-time collaborative yet
