My Vimium C Config
Vimium C is a fantastic browser extension that enables you to set custom keyboard shortcuts for navigating the internet.
I am a big fan of single keyboard shortcuts that were initially a part of the Opera browser during 2010s and still use most of them to this day in Google Chrome, thanks to Vimium C.
| Keyboard shortcut | Function |
| c | close tab |
| t | open new tab |
| z | go back |
| x | go forward |
| a | previous tab |
| s | next tab |
| u | copy url |
| v | view source |
| f4 | switch to the last active tab |

In this article, I'll share a few methods to quickly post a thought/update/note/log even when Obsidian is not the active app.
The workflow I use is to press ⌘+⇧+L (L for Log) to bring up a box in which I type what I just did or anything I want to record as a log for today and it goes under a "Log" header in Obsidian's daily/today note with the current timestamp w/o Obsidian coming to the front (well, not technically speaking - we just hide Obsidian when it comes to the front).

Here's how I set this up:
Step 1
Edit your daily note Obsidian template and ensure that there's a Log heading.
