@lylo thanks for sharing! Good to know I'm not alone in this interpretation.
Also just noticed that Firefox mobile doesn't display the blog properly for some reason? (Chrome mobile is fine) Will play around with the CSS tomorrow.
Found some time to #blog about my recent thoughts around AI use.

I've been using Obsidian even more of late and now I'm finally financially contributing to it.
https://blog.jsweeting.me/obsidian-and-upgrading-to-sync
@srgower I had used some app (forgot the name) on android to sync without paying for it. But it was quite clunky. For me it's that I don't want my personal cloud account on my work laptop. Or try and find a work around for that same cloud account on my other Linux laptop. This is the nearest solution for me. Or the most efficient option across three separate non-apple OS'.
