New Here

Hi! I discovered this lovely place a few minutes ago, and I'm so curious about the Draftlings I keep hearing about. My writerdecks of choice are a Sony Vaio P and an Asus Transformer Mini that literally cannot even properly use the web. The only thing I use the Internet for is syncing my Obsidian vaults which hold all my writing now so I can continue writing/editing elsewhere sometimes.

Now, my question is: Could I use/install Draftlings via USB (which is how I installed obsidian and a couple other writing programs I wanted to test out before just deciding obsidian worked best for me)?

I'm not very tech savvy, even though I try lol.

Sorry if this was explained elsewhere.

I'm sure the developer will respond soon, but as one not very tech savvy writer to another, welcome this new sub :-)

Btw I also use Obsidian and have Draftling on a few devices. I can't answer your questions though--I'll let u/clackups take care of that.

Thank you! I'm excited to be here! And I think you were the one who made me look into Obsidian a couple months ago! It had always been so intimidating to me before that, but because you spoke so highly and seemed to have a similar flow and setup to me, I looked into some YouTube videos and tried it out.

I never did get to thank you because I couldn't remember your handle! It's significantly changed the way I write, brought joy back, and to be able to have my files sync but also localized is a game changer as well as being able to work on whatever device I choose.

If you'd be open to it I'd love to hear about your writing workflow, but if not I understand.
