sadly obsidian isn't foss. i still like it though.

and yeah with the recent bambulab controversy in the 3d printing community it was noticeable years earlier if you just paid attention. but paying attention takes active effort too. being a discerning consumer/user/creator is difficult.

    It's not FOSS, but it uses markdown which is open, so even if Obsidian went down the path of enshitification, you could still (in theory) move your content over to an alternative. I know, I know, plugins, non-standard etc. etc..

    I think Obsidian's pages Just Work in Logseq, to the point you can use both programs concurrently on the same files

    Yeah, this makes me trust them even though it is closed source. The data is mine and that is a big deal to the leadership there. I would never use it otherwise. And to me, that makes me want to even want to support their ecosystem and pay for actual services. It's truly baffling sometimes how short-sighted most corps are these days. And in an age where alternatives are becoming both more numerous and often even better than their counterparts. Like Linux in general. It used to be a varying experience depending on your hardware. Even my laptop just got the correct drivers for buttons and brightness, fans and shit even though the makers made no effort at all. I'm actually optimistic about the entire cyberspace

    I use both for different use cases, so I've never used the same directory for an Obsidian vault and Logseq graph. Pretty sure they would both be able to read and write the markdown files, but would features like Logseq block references and queries work in Obsidian? How would Logseq treat Obsidian bases?
