Every time I see a post about a note-taking app, Obsidian is mentioned in the comments. I don't know if the app is really good, or if those are just paid comments. At this point I'm not even surprised anymore, especially when conversations always end with a mention of Obsidian Sync.
It's the biggest & most popular app in the note-taking space. It's closed-source, which I don't love, and I've tried to look for alternatives, but there just isn't anything else that's as good as Obsidian. In a situation like that, you don't need to pay people to talk about your product. People will evangelize it on their own.
It's because there are two ways to sync content across devices, paid sync through Obsidian vs. git. Given sync is a p0 feature, it seems logical that both get mentioned when the question arises.
Also, the app's really good, and I pay for Sync -- git works well, but it's a bit clumsier on iOS. Never posted a paid comment in my life.
Yeah, the only times I've had problems with it, it was because of WebGL. So I use Standard mode in like 2-3 sites, and Strict everywhere else. This is a bad move IMO
No, as I didn't even know which country it was from for sure, right? ;P But I went ahead and typed "UK encryption" into the Hacker News search and it all popped up from the last few months; the first hit, from a month ago, was even about Apple actively scrambling to push back on it (lending even more support to my point).
