The great thing about Obsidian is that it still uses plaintext (it's not obsidian exclusive, i know).
In case of issues with the tool, you can view and edit files in an editor.
It also makes syncing stuff / backups very easy.
Since you're probably having a kind of syntax already it won't be hard to change.
With a proper keyboard, it's super fast to create and link notes.
On mobile it sucks hard. Things like "[text](linkForText)" are not very mobile-friendly.
One big gripe i have is the table editor.
There is an advanced table add-in to help, but it still sucks.
Create a table and put a long link into it.
Well-known keys like "end" or "pos1" don't do the expected. "TAB" will add fields... i don't know, this should be better.
- PrimeMcFly 3y agoI'm familiar with markdown enough, but I don't have much need to format my own notes, no need for tables etc. All I really need is headings, and sub-headings to various degrees. I've been wanting to make my own program to deal with that since using tex for that seems like overkill even though it works well enough. I may still as Obsidian being closed source is kind of a bummer and I'm trying to limit the closed source software I use as much as possible.

- nray 3y agoIsn't the licensing an issue? As far as I can tell you can't use Obsidian at your workplace without an annual commercial license, which is fair enough but maybe too heavy a lift for many.
- the_cramer 3y agoYes. Professional use requires licensing. Too bad as our workplace forces the use of OneNote, which imho is lacking.
