Hey Nicole! I'm a Dev Advocate at ServiceNow and my boss and I were LITERALLY talking about your channel as an example of amazing, helpful edu-tainment. This tutorial couldn't have come at a better time! A+ as always

[@nicolevdh]

Oh wow! That's so cool! I've tested ServiceNow in a previous project, heh. I'm so glad you're enjoying my videos!

Really respect the process especially on the selecting the video title. I see some creators who genuinely have decent content but tend to have click-baity, overly conclusive ("best", "only x you will need") titles which actually cause me to devalue their insights, assume where their priorities lie, and create a barrier when searching for an information later. It's a real testament of someone's integrity to do otherwise and huge thanks for pointing out this bane of youtube (in the name of so-called "algorithm"). Thanks Nicole. :)

[@nicolevdh]

I appreciate this comment so much! I also think clickbaity titles attract the wrong crowd-- which isn't such a big problem when a creator is just trying to get as many clicks as possible, but it's definitely a problem when their goal is to create thoughtful content and get thoughtful responses back. Thank you for your kind words!

Thanks for this excellent video, Nicole! I just recently became one of your Patreon supporters; I have found your tutorials so useful, and I love being able to have extra and/or early access to bonus material, templates, etc. I'm working on a template I can use for developing Substack post writing ideas, and this workflow video is hugely helpful. ❤

[@nicolevdh]

Hi! Thank you so much for your support! I'm so glad you're finding some value out of what I'm creating too. I am working on writing more this year, including actually starting up a newsletter. I think I may have found a way to do that that works really well with Obsidian -- more on that soon!

[@DebbieOhi]

@@nicolevdh Oooo, can't wait!

Bookmarking this video!

Being completely ignorant of the production side of KZbinrs it did amaze me how the algorithm helps you set up titling for maximum appeal. I noticed other channels do things like swap out the thumbnail after a day or so, and increasingly fly a community post as a heads up which links to the video itself. And / or a repeat post at different days of the week or time of day (to catch people on their commute?)... And sometimes a post later on to say 'hey did you catch my vid I dropped last week?'. Great video, will have to watch on PC to see the details.

[@nicolevdh]

Yeah, I have noticed that and it probably does get views more eyeballs. I have enough trouble just posting about my videos on socials at all. I'd rather just say it once and move on! 😅

[@jun6lee]

Great to see your workflow. Would be keen to know what you're using for the screen-recording for your obsidian videos. Particularly the usage of keystrokes also appearing on screen. Very cool.

[@danyukhin]

thank you!

Wonderful video! Thanks, Nicole. How I am able to mark down this clickable copy button in 8:51? Is it a plugin or is it a core function? 🤔

[@nicolevdh]

It's a core feature for code blocks! :)

[@lickylips]

Loving your videos and your lifestyle of moving and traveling. Thanks for Sharing

[@nicolevdh]

The lifestyle definitely has its advantages!

[@tryingET]

What kind of software do you use for blending your keyboard strokes in your videos?

[@the1gofer]

Do you think it was odd editing a part about editing after it’s edited?

[@nicolevdh]

Heh! Like editing inception. :)

[@timbushell8640]

Way too nice : ))))) And totally usable for 'mere' text or audio content too. So you haven't 'front ended' the DataView and the general front yet, via Canvas in Obsidian yet? to give a more 'card like' flow other than the KanBan... next step maybe. Good recap of DataView and templates. Thank you again... ...

"It's Fantasy Calendar, but it works for reality" is such a real statement!

[@radui7468]

Hi, nice video. What are the other channels that you post on?

[@nicolevdh]

I do KZbin stuff for work as well. You can find me on Grafana Labs (youtube.com/@grafana) and k6 (youtube.com/@k6io). I also do a video podcast on intersectionality and tech called Adobo and Avocados (youtube.com/@adoboandavocados). And some other things I haven't publicly mentioned yet. :)
