I use Johnny Decimal style files & folders with Obsidian and it's great. I wrote about how (and why) I implemented my Johnny Decimal system into Obsidian here, if it helps: https://eleanorkonik.com/yet-another-hot-take-on-folders-ver...

Bloody brilliant! Assigning states is exactly how I use tags too. With tags, I always find that I'm just adding more avenues to be unhappy with imperfection. "Oh, is that the perfect tag? Is that tag too obvious? How will I remember this tag later on?" I would hate to have to develop an entire philosophy of tagging, because I have too many others anyway. So I prefer to deal with the one-stop uneasiness of "is this the right folder for it?". Still not perfect, but just the one.

Thanks for writing that post! I look forward to reading more on your website.
