Pro tip: you can not fail if you never try

Oh my cod it’s beautiful

I really like the creator but with this video I’m left dissatisfied because trying to be reasonable and easy going, he actually didn’t dispel the false argument.

Yes, he clarified that many things in the false argument are messier than they claim to be but from the stand point of false argument believer it looks like mocking and pedantry.

For unswayed public in either direction (who never heard of this topic before), it looks like Ben just hates some niche group without giving them fair shot. Not a good look dare I say

So by extend unswayed public might become more interested in the false argument - not less.

Cherry on top, Ben says to check out some other video but the link (or even a name) is nowhere to be found either in the pinned comment or description. Meanwhile false argument narrative is deliberately made very easy to spiral into.

Overall, the video might bring more harm then good by platforming the false argument and doing not sufficient job dispelling it

BTW Check out the work of others, maybe you could salvage few things for your project as well

Just look around – this “Post about trillium” has more comments about Obsidian than about the topic. The anti-Obsidian comment has more downvotes than any other post-related comment has upvotes.

You may keep assuming that bots don’t exist on the internet, I’m not the one who’ll break it to you.

To those who came here just to shill obsidian for some reason (drop me a dm! I also wanna get paid for my comments!) and say “it’s critical to have my notes in local files”:

Once user reaches few thousands of notes, non-db based software (Obsidian) will slow down to the point of being unusable. There’s no workaround to this, since the bottleneck is storage speed
