I want to try using #obsidian along with #silverbullet and see how the experiment goes. Has anybody done the same? Cc @selfhost@lemmy.ml @selfhosted@lemmy.world @selfhst@fosstodon.org

Ive been using silverbullet, i like it mostly. Only wish that i could lock pages to prevent editing.

@CameronDev what would be the use case of locking pages?

[–] CameronDev@programming.dev 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I am using it as a personal wiki, so i have a bunch of links. With edit enabled, when you click a link it drops the cursor in the middle of the link and expands it into raw markdown. It would be nice to "finalise" or "lock" the page so that editing was disabled, links would be easier to click.

Also sharing pages with my partner would be nicer.

Wouldnt need to be a permanent lock though.

@CameronDev as to sharing: do you envision this working in a particular way? Multiple accounts on the same instance or some way to share specific pages between people’s own spaces that “sync”?

[–] CameronDev@programming.dev 1 points 10 months ago

Sorry, that wasnt clear, simply giving my partner a link to a non-editable page so they dont accidentally make a mess of it.

@CameronDev do you see this raw markdown behavior on mobile or desktop or both? What OS/browser?

[–] CameronDev@programming.dev 1 points 10 months ago

Seems I was confused, links are fine. Tables are a bit wonky though, if you click a cell (to select or copy), it drops to raw markdown. Tested on desktop. Being able to lock it as non-editable would (theoretically) prevent the nice table formatting being lost.

But it is a minor complaint, not a deal breaker.
