Earlier quoted context omitted.

There doesn't seem to be anything that doesn't exist as an Obsidian plugin!

Hacker News client to read comments in Obsidian?

Something like this?

Why does it look like that though. I wish open source projects would spend a bit more time on design.

I wish people would appreciate other peoples effort a little bit more. As far as I can tell it is a one man project that has been around for a while. It takes a lot of effort to do this.

For personal use I can recommend this Obsidian plugin. It turns a markdown file into a Kanban board. https://github.com/mgmeyers/obsidian-kanban

I use this too! I wish there was a better way to self-host keeping a vault up to date on the Android client, though.

If you need/want self-hosting, and something more comprehensive, I recommend YouTrack ( https://www.jetbrains.com/youtrack/ ) as an excellent replacement for self-hosted Jira&co. It's not open source, but it's free for <10 users and cheap beyond that.

I used YouTrack from around 2015 (maybe late 2015) til late 2016 at a former employer, and they only used it because a vendor of theirs used it...and everyone loved it; hence started using in in-house. It really was quite comprehensive, fluid, and lovely to work with from a user perspective. But, I'm sorry, nowadays and for some time now, unless something is open source, i either heavily hesitate or avoid using where…

I understand the reasoning, and YouTrack will fail the open-source test. I mention it as an option because we needed a self-hosted project management platform (for regulatory reasons), and I could not find any open-source options that I could put in front of non-tech people with a straight face. FOSS surprisingly skips over this area (maybe because many engineers seem to dislike "project management").

I actually ended up making a physical Kanban board at home in a central location. Relatively large corkboard using 3x5 index cards, with a few layers of backlog, in-progress lane with a hard cap of 2 cards, and about 1/3 of the space reserved for done cards. This last bit should be unnecessary in theory but I find psychologically satisfying to look at. This is for shared use by the family.

Can you take a picture of it maybe if not too personal... I was planning to do something similar but ended up using white board with grids I drew myself.
