The [Obsidian](https://curiouslychase.com/tools/obsidian/) Metadata plugin has changed the way I interact with my notes, allowing me to easily and quickly view my notes as database entries. 

- I have a post file class
- I use the post file class on any new post note
- I bulk add missing properties
- I have defaults for a new draft
- I can view my posts based on the file class
