This looks great! Wish I had it a few months ago instead of having to use qr-code-styling[0] which was a bit of a pain.

I remember it was around the same time that Obsidian got native callouts, so my notes for that project are all colourful & contain valuable admonitions like this:

```

[!todo]
That feeling when you're wasting hours of your life trying to make something you know is abandonware work just because it looks nice. There should be a word for that feeling. In Danish or Japanese. Or German.

How about: fröbelen

Roughly means: To be creatively busy for fun

or a phrase, like "beating off a dead horse"

Yikes. That does not mean what you think it does in my locale.

The phrase would be "flogging a dead horse".

There’s an English word for it: art.

If that’s too broad, try https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autotelic
