ObsidianMD

I mostly just use Syncthing for syncing the files, and otherwise I let Obsidian do the driving.

I hear about Fleeting Notes but I didn't play with it

Nothing really. I just use the Git Sync addon to store my notes to Gihub.

Markor

Termux for bash, wget, sed, awk, python scripts and rclone for syncing.

This is really difficult to break down because it's (by nature) complicated. but:

1. A custom python script that reads RSS feeds, picks out keywords, and posts them to a special file with a checkbox. This then monitors the checkboxes so it doesn't repeat a story (still happens but not as bad as without)

2. A custom python script that checks a bunch of websites for things like when a new video is uploaded. This uses webscraping and is highly customized to each site.

3. This one's pretty neat: I use Lynx to do a text dump of wttr.in THEN i use a custom python script to add the sunrise, sunset, and moon phases to that text file so it displays them. Since wttr.in goes down fairly often due to overuse, it's also got bypasses built in so it at least shows me the sun/moon info even if the site read fails.

All that runs every hour, though due to intentional design choices it varies the time slightly to avoid being detected for being to regular.

Then, once a day at midnight, it copies my entire vault to a backup directory and puts it into a dated backup folder.

Since the entire thing runs via a single shell script it's easy to start up when i do a reboot. very fire-and-forget.

meanwhile in Obsidian itself i have several panes set up - for the updates, the weather etc - that "bracket" my main viewing page + my calendar.
