Tired of migrating notes apps like Obsidian or Evernote? Learn how to build your own private, long-term PKM using self-hosted Directus for control & longevity.
I'm a heavy user and I'm happy. Syncing can be easily done for free, for example with Nextcloud. Paired with Nextcloud Notes, it gives me a well working mobile experience. And because Obsidian stores all notes in plaintext on the file system, it will be accessible even when Obsidian is gone.
The only thing I don't like about Obsidian is that it isn't Open Source. This is bad because should Obsidian vanish, so will the code.
