My #Obsidian workflow has recently changed just about everything in my life. The structures I've built into it have given me my memory back. My 'slow brain' has become more pronounced. I'm much happier. Aside from a mindmap, I've been using it for daily note reviews, a crucial life discovery.

Is #openframeworks the most performant creative coding environment for text? I've been a p5 programmer for a long time but it feels like it's text interfaces are... not great. Or should I look at other canvas text interfaces? I want to draw letters into looping river like structures.
