Is Dendron on par with Foam for data visualization with related tags?

If it works the same way then is it a case of installing the extension with little config after that?

I'm not opposed to switching again

As far as I know both Dendron and Foam stitch together a bunch of plug/play VSC extensions, so it should be interchangeable.

I liked Dendron more, as it seemed a more curated experience - the creator has a plan and is hard at work to make his "customers" happy.

"Dendron, the client, is free and will always remain free. It is also open source so anyone is free to make their own fork of Dendron.

That being said, I'm all in on Dendron and this is my full time gig. I want to make sure that developing Dendron remains sustainable. To that end, I plan on introducing value add server side functionality that folks may pay for."

PS: Why not switch to Emacs? It will only take a measly year to get comfortable! :)
