Ink (Obsidian plugin)

Two plugins I use are ... a plugin called Ink that lets you insert handwritten segments.

Ink is the solution. It is not perfect but good enough.

Ink was the plugin that finally convinced me to switch from OneNote. I still miss the completely freeform "type anywhere, handwrite anywhere" canvas, but Ink gets close enough

The Ink bonus is solid too if you want to stay in the Chase ecosystem, just depends if you want the hassle of a biz card

I've tried Obsidian community plugins on my iPad (Excalidraw, Ink, Handwritten Notes), I really appreciated the simple and straight forward designs, but they didn't really work out for me.

If you haven't read Ink, it's also worth a read. It's set after Pine Deep and you'll see Mike and Malcom again.

Ink (best drawing plugin IMO) Allows you to place a canvas inside your note and to draw on it. Works seemlessly!

I think even though ink is only an alpha release, it feels the most "native" for this specific workflow. The drawing is a lot more responsive and it's a lot faster for making diagrams directly in my notes (my use case is taking math notes in lecture).
