post: Migration From Logseq and DayOne to Obsidian
https://lubieniebieski.pl/migration-to-obsidian/
After 11 years with DayOne and 2 years with Logseq, I migrated to Obsidian. Here's how it went. See the font and colors I use, daily templates, and how I imported data from old tools to the new one.

Great post and welcome
Tasks works great once I wrapped my head around the nuances. I have dedicated section in daily note for new work and personal tasks. Then group and filter on that so only actual tasks show up. Also have several methods of displaying: today +/- 2 days in daily note, then dedicated notes for incomplete/completed/finance tags/etc.

Bummed about omnivore but obsidian clipper is working really well for me. Specify a clippings directory, add tags and a link to index page. Use local image converter. Then set up index pages with dataview
Both methods leverage dataview and index pages which are just filtered views

@sp thanks a lot! I'm currently playing with obsidian clipper and I like it, might be enough for my needs.
regarding tasks - I feel similar about it - there has to be some reminders laying around in my most active file (daily note) + other places for more nuanced overview! Do you use end-dates a lot to keep the filters running properly in the daily note?
@lubieniebieski with tasks I use combination of due dates, section headers, and tags. Then tasks view lets one display by filters, group by, and parent header.
So I have sections in my daily note that uses due date = today +/- 2 days, grouped by the header they’re created in (personal/work). You could also group by tag or have project based header. Personal preferences
Then a handful of more expansive task pages: all finance, personal, work; grouped and sorted by date
@lubieniebieski also in the daily note page I have a new tasks section for each header group. So tasks will link to the note it was created on and appear where it matches filter rules
One weirdness is with repeating tasks as it will just create a new one in the same note. So I have some notes with 50 of the same tasks (49 completed)
