TL;DR: My Obsidian Zettelkasten vault grew beyond 6,000 notes, and the graph view couldn’t handle it. It would freeze whenever I zoomed in to find subtle cluster of notes.
The graph view is valuable for spotting hidden relationships, connecting ideas, and turning scattered notes into something useful. In this article, I share my experience and a workaround using an alternate browser-based visualization tool which is working great so far.
