Obsidian.
Is the obsidian Android App not open source? I thought all their stuff was. Kinda embarrassed I never checked.
Nah they use "an open standard" being just markdown files or something, but the apps are still proprietary as far as I'm aware
I really hate how I sometimes, though rarely, see Obsidian talked about as if it were open source just because it uses an open standard
Like Photoshop isn't open source because it can use PNG kinda thing
There's logseq, but it's not as polished.
Logseq is such a hassle. They didn't bother to write a proper abstraction for data blocks, they require you to write and read code like notes, and they don't plan on making any proper data visualization other than the fancy and useless graph.
There is already an opensource alternative to Obsidian, its name is #Logseq, you have mobile and desktop app
Logseq uses a bit of a different paradigm though. It is cool, but I wouldn't say it's a drop in replacement.
