Obsidian is now free for work - Obsidian

One of the benefits of Obsidian is that it stores its data in a format where you CAN use cli tools and python etc. That's one of the reasons I'm using it myself.

It's pretty identical there champ.

I was using Obsidian for a while, but actually switched when I found an awesome open source alternative, SilverBullet. The best comparison would be "Obsidian but for tinkerers/hackers".
Data is stored plaintext the same as obsidian - I actually just copy pasted my vault and it worked with exception of wikilinks being absolute paths only - and haven't looked back
The only downside is that its in early stages of development, but definitely usable
-
I like Silverbullet, but I could never get the file tree to work well. Any tips? Or is that not a feature you use?
-
To answer your other question, actively using and maintaining my PIM since 2009.

Someone develops logseq which is completely foss and like obsidian. Now I can choose to donate to FOSS or buy closed source. How do you decide?
We just need to establish paying for open source software more.

Notesnook is free. It is developed under gpl https://github.com/streetwriters/notesnook

They mentioned SyncThing.

I jumped over to logseq. It takes some getting used to, but overall logseq is working fine overall.

I have an "index" page where I link important pages and files. When I want to move them I rename them. If I do bulk data changes I SSH to my server and move the files in an old fashioned way.
Personally I have not tried the filetree plugin, since I did not have the need for it - and probably the author of the project aswell. -
Just use Joplin. It checks all those boxes, it’s only flaw is being an electron application.
I use it too, but it doesn’t have something like canvas. You have to write them in Mermaid markdown like a caveman.
