I mean, in this case, the Hammerspoon part is really just the hyper keybind and the easy run of AppleScript text inline. But... once you've got some stuff going, it's easier to hook into Hammerspoon as the "frontend" for other things as your systems grow.

Obsidian is good! This use of Bases is really my only "proprietary" use of anything Obsidian-specific. The rest is a combo of personal reference, brainstorms, intricate client work specs or outlines, and the beginnings of a personal wiki. The keybinds are great, everything is in one big folder for now, and the fuzzy search makes it fast. For sync, I just have my vault in a folder that is part of my overall Syncthing, so all my computers can access it. On mobile (iPhone moving to Android, and iPad) it's just read-only for now; not using their sync or doing any writing into the system from mobile.

Somewhat relatedly, I just got Standard Notes going on all systems (Mac/Linux/iPhone/Android/iPad) which is good for reliable capture at all places for me right now. I'm not paying, so I don't have (Markdown or other) formatting like in Apple Notes yet.
