// REVIEW LOG:
>>Obsidian is the anti-SaaS. It is a folder of text files on your hard drive. That's it. That's the feature.
>>While Notion tries to be your database, website, and project manager, becoming a slow, bloated mess, Obsidian stays fast. Blazingly fast.
>>The graph view is pretty, but the real power is the link. Bi-directional linking mimics how your brain actually works. You don't file thoughts in folders; you connect them.
>>If you are a developer, this is the only note-taking app that respects you. You own the data. You can write scripts to manipulate it. It will exist in 50 years.
