I started trying to use Joplin and couldnt get over it using a database rather than raw .md files. Once I'd added a bevy of plugins the UI really didnt seem to be handling thinhgs well.
I considered VS Code ± Foam and found myself doing a lot of the work baked into Hopping/Obsidian myself, and could see coming a less rich plugin ecosystem once I was done.
Quite happily using Obsidian now and managing my files myself. Glad I can just get on with de-OneNoting now.
Seeing privacy & security taken seriously offsets the lack of OSS for me.
I guess that’s one of the biggest strengths of Obsidian that it does not use a closed format for notes, just plain markdown. Which you can all just see by looking in your folder. Plus makes it easier to run scripts on it
