Thanks! Glad you found the video helpful.

Glad you enjoyed it!

@@forrestrperry We do need more though! How else we gonna leverage!

Yes, please do! Glad you like the video. Thank you.

At this point, I can't say that I have figured out how to use the whiteboard and/or mindmap feature to enhance the way I build my Zettelkasten. I use MindNode to maintain a mindmap of my claim pages (a.k.a. zettels). I was thinking of switching to using Heptabase's mindmap feature, but at the time I thought of doing that, I learned from another user that a Heptabase board slows down quite a bit once you have 200+ cards on it. With recent improvements in Heptabase's performance (sometime in the past 2-3 weeks, if I recall correctly), apparently boards can have more cards on them without slowing down. In the future, I might take another crack at creating a mindmap of my zettels, but if I were to do so, I would probably still want to maintain the mindmap I have in MindNode in part because my MindNode file is relatively small and in part because I want to have a backup of my zettelkasten.

Although I rarely use Heptabase on mobile, I would MUCH use it on mobile than I would use Obsidian on mobile. Some people love Obsidian on mobile devices, whereas I have always hated using it on them. I am not done with Obsidian because (a) I have so many notes in my Obsidian vault that transferring all of them to Heptabase would have been a pain, (b) I like having a plain-text/Markdown backup of my notes in Obsidian, and (c) I still use Obsidian to do this thing that I call "relevance-level tagging" (here's the piece where I explain relevance-level tagging, in case you're interested: www.collider.space/issue-2-relevance-level-tagging/). If I were starting from scratch, I would try out Heptabase. If you find there are things you can't do in it that are super-duper important for you to do (which is a higher threshold than finding "oh, it would be pretty cool but not really important if it could do x"), then consider switching. But if you are, say, 80% satisfied with it, I recommend you stick with it.

Thanks for your comment. Here's a video about what addresses to put on cards that I posted a year or so ago: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f7KlhtuGvr_Ofac.htmlsi=UkA2pU1F3mygXUlg However, it's this one that comes closer to showing how I go about putting addresses on cards: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eZNgh7tzzrLMd6s.htmlsi=sdQcEHy9IoZFEByU The only thing to keep in mind when watching that second video is that not long after posting it, I decided to stop using what I was calling "folder cards." My explanation for why I stopped doing that can be found here: www.fpnotes.io/why-i-stopped-using-folder-cards-in-my-analog-zettelkasten/ As for how I generate the card addresses, I manually type them out. I believe there are one or two Zettelkasten software programs out there that take care of the numbering for you, but that's not something I need. I hope this information helps.

I am not using an analog Zettelkasten anymore. Even when I was using it, I was backing everything up in Obsidian, where I like to do this thing I call "relevance-level tagging." It became too onerous to maintain both the analog Zettelkasten and the "enhanced" version of it it Obsidian (I put "enhanced" in quotation marks because some might argue that anything digital is always inferior to analog, as cell phones are clearly inferior to the rotary dial phones, *of course*). If I had started with Heptabase from the beginning, I likely would have used only Heptabase. But currently I am using Heptabase + Obsidian because (a) I love working within Heptabase, (b) one can't do relevance-level tagging in Heptabase, and (c) I had way too many notes in Obsidian for it to be other than a pain in the behind to move everything over to Heptabase.

good video tutorial though

That’s for a claim card that captures an author’s argument that it’s not an apartheid state because it doesn’t need the indigenous population to remain in the country to function as a source of labor. Palestinians on this account are more like, say, Native Americans in what became the U.S. than like the indigenous population in apartheid South Africa.
