After what feels like trying every note tool under the sun. I’ve been using Joplin 3 years now and won’t leave if I can help it. Why pay Obsidian $4/month, when Joplin is free and open source, can sync, has a desktop App for every OS, has a mobile app, encryption at rest, and I can contribute to it?

It's only $4 a month if you want to use their sync, there is a plugin for using github to sync (if that is your thing) or I just use syncthing and have my obsidian folder there.

Edit: Actually, I guess that won't work with mobile

It works fine with mobile if you're on Android. I use Nextcloud to sync as well as git for versioning.

But syncthing would probably be the easiest option for this!

There's Syncthing for Android if you look in F-Droid, at least. Plus a fork with some Android specific tweaks

If obsidian really hits it off, maybe there will be an open source clone once, that is compatible with Obsidian’s plugin ecosystem.
