This animation shows an import of 11K posts of my tumblr (10 years of notes, screenshots, etc.) into obsidian.md to use as a knowledge base. Light grey are the posts, orange are the tags.

What we did:
Requested a download of my data from tumblr, then we transformed the hashtags etc. to something obsidian can read (with a self-written parser that we will release soon), converted to markdown with pandoc, fixed the paths.

Feels like unlocking my archive, taking control of my data.

@lukasfx wow that is incredible. did you import the image files into obsidian as well?

Lukas Fuchsgruber

@liaizon yes! I am now looking at the plugins to see them in the network, together with tags and quotes etc

@lukasfx wow this sounds incredible. I also used tumblr for 10+ years so I would be super interested in using the system you are working on! I have also started using obsidian every day recently

@liaizon our java code is super murky due to the parser we used… but what works is converting hashtags, and giving a title based on the text of the post. We want to rework it and release it open source.
