I really want to like obsidian but it’s just unusable (for me)
So I built my own thats a bit more lightweight. Think nvalt meets markdown. thats native, iOS and Mac with I cloud sync, and open source.
Check it out if it sounds interesting!
iOS app is still in review ;(

- FireBeyond 7mo ago> a bit more lightweight I don't want to be overly negative, but no plugins are mandatory, there's no "47 step setup guide" unless you want to heavily customize. And as far as I can tell you mostly replaced some of the weight with AI? AI "Search Notes", "Organize Notes", "List and filter, tags", "Clean up notes" I guess I just see this as weight in a different area? You've pushed a lot of the weight and plugins to cloud-based AI? I am, on principle, very much a fan of "native app, not another Electron view".
- Jonovono 7mo agoIt’s a BYOK so the ai is optional. (And if you really don’t want it it’s a package in the open source app that can easily be pulled out) Since it’s markdown and on filesystem you can just edit your notes with Claude code if you want similar to obsidian. By lightweight I mean it’s not a super heavy and bloated electron app on desktop and a slow and janky capacitor app on mobile that takes 10 seconds to launch and that the project can be greppable in a day to build on
- FireBeyond 7mo agoI appreciate the feedback - being a bit more modularized like this makes more sense! And yeah, if you're referring to the whole Electron stuff there, I entirely agree!
