Anyone have any thoughts on Craft[1] and how it compares to Obsidian as a note-taking tool? My primary work machine is a Mac (I also have an iPad and iPhone). I'm looking primarily for a note-taking app with support for images. I don't necessarily need the more "glamourous" publishing type features that craft has.

Things I like about the app:

* (Generally) good keyboard support

* Syncing (but I'm paying for it)

* Good native apps on mobile

Things that aren't so good

* Editing code blocks

Two reasons why I’m using Obsidian instead of Craft:

Craft uses a proprietary data format. Obsidian is more portable since it just uses folders of Markdown files.

Craft for Windows doesn’t work offline (only online).
