Obsidian offers a robust automated backup feature known as File Recovery, which takes snapshots of user notes every five minutes. These backups are retained for a period of up to seven days, allowing users to easily restore previous versions if needed.
Many users overlook the application’s powerful core functions and plugins. Among these is the alias feature, which allows notes to be linked using alternative names. For instance, a character named "Rowan Keeler" can be referenced simply as "Rowan" or "Mr. Keeler," making note linking more efficient.
Additionally, the tagging system in Obsidian offers a unique way to organize content without the need for a folder hierarchy. This flexibility enhances the user experience, with features like "Unlinked Mentions" helping to uncover connections between notes.
Implementing these features can significantly streamline workflows, as users can focus more on content creation rather than managing complex setups with unnecessary plugins.
