It comes down to how much is your time worth. If you're a developer making $100K+ a year, a $1,000 over a decade is nothing if it increases your productivity 2-3X compared to your collegues, which considering the fact that some of my colleagues store their notes in Windows Notepad is a complete underestimation.

So obsidian let's me get 40 hours of work had I used notepad for notes done in 13-20 hours?

  • I store my code snippets, config templates, daily changelogs, todo lists, and note templates in Obsidian and use them probably dozens of times a day. I have keyboard shortcuts that open up specific notes that I copy code snippets and filepaths from. If you were to put me next to someone that was storing their notes in notepad I would bet you money that they take 2-3x as long as I do.
