Obsidian is closed source or not fully open source iirc. Try Notesnook if you need sync.
Apparently Emacs is on F-Droid so you could use org-mode as well, although IDK how well it works
Orgzly is what you use for org-mode on Android. Haven't seen anything beat it.
Sweet, I'll try it out
Logseq is a good alternative to Obsidian
I love Logseq and I've been using it for many years. But TBH it's not an alternative to Obsidian. At all. It's a differrent app with a differrent approach.
My boss uses Obsidian, and me and a colleague use Lagseq. They seem to do the same job for our needs. I'm curious to know what features of Obsidian is Logseq lacking for your usecase?
They might do the same job. They just do it in a different way. They look differently, they work differently, their key concepts are a bit different, their workspaces and workflows are differently organized. Plus, Logseq is fully open source while Obsidian is not.
It's not about features. Almost every notetaking app has pretty similar feature set today. I'm talking about the approach in general.
I'm wondering now what are the differences between their look, workings, key concepts, workspace and workflow organization?
I suggest you to install them both and take a look. Or even better - use them both side by side for a while ;)
My preference was Joplin synced through self hosted Nextcloud
Yeah or standard notes if they like the proton products
Standard Notes was written by a different company (largely just one developer) and is not like other proton products.
Proton simply bought it so they didn't have to write their own.
Yeah good call out. I just meant that there are many people that don't trust/dislike proton. OP though seems cool with proton so then they might be cool with standard notes.
