I fricken LOVE the Supernote e-paper tablet for writing... AND I love Obsidian for my knowledge management!

Naturally, I HAD to find a way to LINK them.

I love that people have developed poisoning programs to kill scraping bots. But I also recognize that understanding and using the tech is valuable in the world we're actually living in. C'est la vie.

The same is true for tech things, like AI. I'm actually hella frustrated with every aspect of the industry. I wish to damnation that the technology hadn't been invented yet, and certainly that it wasn't in corporate hands.

Then I started learning more about shitty city design, walkability, and the vitality created by public modes of transportation (as well as walkable/bikable infrastructure).

My ideas and notions of what is right and wrong have evolved over the years. Heck, I once upon a time though Tesla was a neat company because at least they were promoting electric vehicles.

What's interesting to me about the Internet is how points people make, or things they reblog, are taken as ABSOLUTES. Like, for me... they're not. I change all the time.

The Supernote is by far my preferred device from all the e-ink offerings out there, largely due to the incredibly responsive team at Ratta. Obsidian is, likewise, my favorite personal knowledge management software. Paired? It’s like a futuristic fairytale.

I’m looking forward to the opportunity to try the new Supernote A5X2 with this same set-up one of these days (I wouldn’t say no to another product review copy).

Suddenly, the world of e-ink exploded, offering the opportunity to explore a whole new ideal way of interacting with the content of my mind.

With the Unofficial Supernote Plugin installed, I could see my handwritten notes, alongside their extracted OCRed text (Supernote has fantastic handwriting recognition), right inside the Obsidian app! And it synced across all my devices like a smooth dream.

I side loaded a new application that did just that: I could mirror the whole Notes folder on my Supernote to a location within my Obsidian folder (which I aptly named “Supernotes”). And magic happened.

As I lay down to sleep on this problem, the solution struck like a thunderbolt. Surely, there must be an Android app capable of file syncing locally? Not to a cloud service or another device, but to a different folder on the same hard drive. I was right.

Because of how side-loading on the Supernote works, the files in my Obsidian vault would forever be kept separate from the handwriting files. Like a brain with its hemispheres severed, the different parts of the Supernote’s hard drive could not speak to one another.

With a few tweaks, I had the app running. I even had Obsidian Sync on in the background, transferring over my files! But a huge problem remained. A problem that, as far as I could tell after watching dozens of videos and reading hundreds of posts, nobody else had solved.

The Supernote runs on an older version of the Android operating system that is customized for the e-ink experience. But Ratta has allowed side-loading openly from the start, making it easy to experiment. And, lo and behold, it’s possible to side-load Obsidian.

With an active community, the instructions were right there, I just had to act.

“Side-loading” is a term for unofficially adding an application to a device that wasn’t designed to run it.

After building my own PC, installing CalyxOS on my Android phone, and diving into the world of Linux, the thought of side-loading an app on the Supernote didn’t seem so crazy.
