    Lmao. No, I don’t agree that file format is the most critical choice, though in that regard a database still has many many benefits. Regardless trilium has interoperability, if you entirely need plaintext files then you do you. I don’t really care, nor do I expect that to be anywhere close to a common requirement.

    Yes obsidian supports various linking formats, but mainly uses its own. Unless you convert or willingly and intentionally use a more compatible system from the start, something plugins and obsidian itself only somewhat support, you’ll probably be using the obsidian specific linking. Why wouldn’t you either, it’s a good link system.

    Come on. At least have knowledge about the software you are trying to criticise.

    Ive used obsidian for 6 years before switching to trilium. Feel free to not be an ass and actually say something useful or relevant to the discussion, otherwise cheers.

      Local vs web-hosted, or open formats vs closed formats are part of the exact same choice. So I think you probably do agree that it’s a critical, basic component of your software decision. 😉

      But it doesn’t. The only two options are Wikilinks or original Markdown.

      The only software that I’m aware of that is in the same camp as Obsidian - plaintext Markdown files and non-outliner - is Zettlr.
