I'm a happy Obsidian user. It's not open source but really good.

And with Obsidian I still own my files, which are just in markdown and can be read by literally any other program.

[โ€“] ObsidianZed@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Same. Although I'd love a fully open source, non-electron alternative.

I don't know about electron but I tried Logseq because Obsidians license didn't work for me. It's open source and markdown files too

[โ€“] ObsidianZed@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I saw that mentioned elsewhere in the comments. I definitely plan on checking it out.

I'm also a big fan of Obsidian.
