I don't think that's a requirement to use Obsidian? I've had, let's say "less computer savvy" friends who've gotten use out of Obsidian.
AFAIK, you need to create a vault in the beginning, so you need to select somewhere on your computer where stuff gets stored. All the other things are automatic and within Obsidian, although some things are paid addons (like Obsidian Sync).
- thecodrr 3y agoMarkdown itself is more technical than, say, a WYSIWYG editor. People are more used to using MS Word and Google Docs. Obsidian prioritizes a different kind of note taking and, hence, you'll find a lot of tech-savvy users among its community. There's a reason for that.
