@MitchW Hah - because I can - since I donโ€™t pay for either. I got going on Craft first and fell in love with Obsidian later. Yes - they both work and the Venn diagram overlap of functionality is big, but for me - two big distinctions.

1) Portability - Obsidian over Craft 2) Fitting in with how I write - Craft over Obsidian

Obsidian - text files, so completely portable and yes you can style them but really I use Obsidian as the space for 'stuff that hasn't yet fitted anywhere else' - and there is a lot of that. I also use a Readwise plugin - so all the highlights and quotes from there go into Obsidian - so it is a very big container.

But I tend to write and style as I go along. Never really got into Outliners - I try every now and then, but for whatever reason they donโ€™t do it for me - but give me a good structured style sheet - that I can see as I go - and I am in .... so Craft becomes a space not that different to Pages - except you can easily move a Craft Page onto and off the web - kinda how I am revealing the 'Using' post.

So the latest project is pulling things OUT of Craft and into Obsidian that is just sitting there.

What will end up on Craft is more finished thoughts (though definitely some WIP) .. and mostly out on the web in parallel.

Nothing in Obsidian is on the web (yes - I know I can do that - but no plans.)

One day I would really like to have my blot world fit into Obsidian - which actually I think is pretty easy since blot is just a pile of Markdown files - so drag them into the Obsidian Vault.

One day I would also like to have my MicroBlog world fit into Obsidian - but that is going to be harder - until I learn something like how to export from MicroBlog into a file structure where every post is an individual Markdown file ... not bothered with that - cos high priority it is not ... BUT

... when I have my own AI and I can give it 'my world' - maybe THEN?
