I've never seen any really great notetaking app, other than Obsidian.
I don't know why the open source community can't match it yet, but it probably will eventually.
I suspect it's because notetaking is essentially 100% UI and features, There are not many new algorithms involved, and but you need a good markdown edit component.
Also, cross platform is hard, until Flutter game along most of the ways to do it right involved tons of duplicated effort.
- julienreszka 4y agoIsn't Obsidian open source tho?
- eternityforest 4y agoMost/all of the extensions are. Obsidian itself is very much closed. It's almost like AgentDVR, one of those things everyone thinks is open but isn't. Maybe because the quality is so high, with so few obnoxious craps added on, that nobody can believe it's proprietary in todays industry.
