Peerdraft for collaboration in Obsidian + Patreon exclusive video

Added 2024-02-23 15:11:45 +0000 UTC

I've long wished for a way to work on notes on Obsidian with other people, and I've tried many different approaches. One of them, Etherpad, I even made a Patreon-only video about last year. But up until now, nothing really scratched that real-time itch. Dropbox was the closest, but that required someone having both Obsidian and Dropbox installed-- not ideal.

Peerdraft is the best solution I've tried. It's really simple, doesn't have a ton of features, but the real-time syncing just works, and works well. While there's a paid tier, there's a free forever plan that is more than generous, and the developer even said that he's not enforcing the limitations right now.

Patreon exclusive video: Full interview with Dominik Schlund (Peerdraft developer)

I added a ~5 min interview with the Peerdraft dev, Dominik, in the main video that got published to my channel, but the full video is actually 30+ minutes long. We got to talk a lot about the infrastructure and security of Peerdraft, other solutions I've tried for collaboration, and some other fun tangents.

Here it is! Please don't share this video with others-- it's for Patreons only. :) Enjoy!
