I’ve been an Obsidian user for a couple of years and love it. Hitting CMD + u creates a unique note under my “Journal” folder with a filename derived from a datetime string. This keeps notes ordered chronologically and avoids having to name everything up front. I make liberal use of tags and find that this basically works great - 50 to 100 tags seems to be all I could ever need for both personal and work stuff, which number is quite scalable. However, I had always intended to progressively adopt Zettlekasten, which does sort of seem like the gold standard. Unfortunately, the way Obsidian works is that you can only really conveniently link to the filenames of other notes, rather than directly to a heading therein. That UX makes it a non-starter for Zettlekasten, for me. Thought I’d leave this here in case it’s of use to anyone, and would be very interested to hear from anyone who’s landed on a good Zettlekasten setup in Obsidian. Zettlr looks excellent, and since they both run on a plain folder of markdown files, I might even trial running both together for a bit.
