This is brilliant. Thanks for this, I'm going to be looking around to see what I can steal and improve mine. I have crashed Obsidian so many times when I tried to load up everything. Here is my most current implementation;
- Vault (Home / Personal) is about everything for our family, and I. This is a folder inside Dropbox. So, we have everything there. Suddenly at a hospital, and the wife said, bring out the first list of vaccinations when our kid was born -- bam, I got it. :-)
- Vault (Work) is the Google Drive Folder that I have everything about our Company. These days, most of my work is just writing, and more writing. They are good archives and I don't have to re-say or say a little with the writings as a backup for async reference for anyone.
- Vault (dev folder) is usually shared by Sublime Text and Obsidian. These days, I'm left with just writing more and more in MarkDown either as content, documentation, or more contents that gets converted to other outputs.
To maintain sanity, I have very few must-have plugins and the current vaults are all on "Minimal" themes with different color schemes making it easy for me to just toggle my Vaults. I once tried to maintain a common ".obsidian" folder and symlink to it but that was a bad idea - the vaults are better off mostly being unique with shared preferences.
For the notes management I have PARA[0] at the root and everything inside them, with few rules broken to make it easier for sharing, especially with the work content.
