The perfect notetaknig app for me. I've tried Notion, Evernote, Apple Notes, and Google Keep, and this one is by far the best at least for me. Obsidian is lightweight, supports the platforms I use (Android, Windows and Linux) and always available even for offline use. There are plugins developed by the community itself which is a big plus. It's fast and reliable, complete with features that I like using such as being able to open multiple notes at once. I couldn't ask for more. Obsidian has it all.

It's ok. I wish it were more powerful and the community plugins were better. However, if you want to structure your notes in MD its a great way to sync them across devices.

I love Obsidian, I love that it can be anything you want it to be. For a while I tried to make it everything but recently I realised that 60+ plugins to do everything possible was basically Obsidian abuse. I have now realised that Obsidian does one thing brilliantly. It handles knowledge. So now I am using it as my complete second brain. I am using plugins like banners and call out manager to make it look pretty, I need that. I am using Templater and Dataview because hello, why wouldn't you and I am using the Tasks plugin with all the optional statuses so they show things like bookmarks and alerts. Also for knowledge based tasks, it I need to research this subject etc. I am moving the rest of my standard tasks back out into a tool that was designed for that very purpose, because it makes sense to do so.

A cure for my gaming addiction, however I might now have a learning addiction, building knowledge, connecting notes, building upon my existing notes, Love it!

Its cross-platform seamlessness and plugin capabilities are immense. I am excited to see where things go if they ever implement native handwriting support!

Absolutely love this software and the strong extensibility of it. There can be a little friction in setting things up to work just right for you, but if you explore the community plugins can think about how your note-taking should work it's one of the most versatile products out there to achieve it. My only frustration so far is with Obsidian's use of Markdown. Markdown is loved by programmers, and it's valuable for the tech underpinning the notes, but it makes the interface and usability of the the software more difficult than a WYSIWYG implementation.

Super customizable, not soo easy to learn, but when it's set up with automations it's working great!

Great note taking app and also good for creating a knowledge database. It can be synced using a paid plan, but it is also easy to sync via OneDrive or Google Drive. I really like it to work on complex projects for university.

I used the revelatory Notational Velocity many years ago. When it disappeared, I searched high and low, using many competing apps and services that tried to offer something beyond (ahem) TextEdit and the OS. Years later, here it is. Obsidian is superb: the right amount of privacy that doesn't expect you to upload everything into the cloud and the right amount of base features that does everything some cloud services do — and then some, with the relative reliability and speed — and all this before we get to the plug-ins and add-on services if you need complex collaboration or a publishing platform.

This has become the backbone of my productivity system. I love how flexible and reliable it is. I always have my notes with me with or without internet. And when I need it to do something new - there is a plugin for it.
