What do you mean by lack of mobile support? Mobile app had been working fine for me since its been released, at least for me. I only use it to access previously written stuff or quickly capture something to be properly edited later on my laptop though. So I’m not exactly power mobile user.
I couldn't tell you...which is why I put question marks in :-)
I just remember seeing comments about it being a bit behind some of the mobile support offered by other systems. I do everything on desktop, so I ignored it. This was a while ago though, sounds like they have a (new?) mobile app?
I cant remember when it was released, I had access to TestFlight for a good while for being the supporter. But honestly, its great. I was amazed that plugins just sync between desktop and mobile.
Obsidian has a solid mobile app now
do they have widget support? Specifically a list of starred/favorite notes?

Starred notes is a core plugin that lets you pin searches too.
There are slightly more involved approaches as well:

All the plugins from desktop version sync to mobile too.
yes, core obsidian support star notes and lists them in a star note tab.
I’ve stopped using it because I can’t figure out how to make a nice home page with links to various notes and important links, it just dumps me in the latest random note. Is there a way to organize that, like in notion?

If you use any of the daily notes plugin, you can tell it to always open with the note for today, which is based on a template and can contain anything you want. iIRC by default it just opens the last note you were in.
So every daily note saved will have this saved over and over? Doesn't seem very elegant
I actually sync my instances so when it does the git pull, it puts me in the last note I was working on, regardless of what machine it was.
I use the calendar, and tasks stuff to give me a daily/weekly view in the sidebar for quick nav. and a 'general' note for links to notes I want quick access to.

Obsidian has a solid mobile app and a good sync service. It's not an issue.
Not an issue for me, but others might be concerned about its (lack of??) mobile support. I do all my work on desktops and sync thru git, so its not been a problem for me.
