What I really like about Obsidian is that it’s offline and free — super reliable as a private knowledge base. It feels more focused for writing compared to Notion, and with Git or syncing tools, backups are no headache. Search is lightning fast, so I never worry about losing track of anything.

I’ve been trying Qwen alongside GPT-4o, and honestly it feels great — it’s noticeably faster and cheaper, yet most of the time the answer quality is hard to tell apart. For quick everyday tasks, I barely notice any trade-offs, which makes it a super practical choice.

Absolutely love how VS Code keeps pushing the bar — top-notch performance and such a smooth, ergonomic design. Curious, what’s been the hardest part of keeping it so fast while adding more and more features?
