I am using logseq at work, as I don’t have a license there. I prefer Obsidian over all alternatives I’ve tried so far. Major points are:
Plugins, which obsidian offers a lot
File structure, obsidian stores all notes in a directory tree of markdown files. You can sync this with any service you like: GIT, Syncthing, manually, whatever you like.
I don’t really get the journaling format of logseq, why does every note have to be a point in a hierarchy?
I really like the obsidian file structure. It makes me feel more secure because even though Obsidian isn’t FOSS, all my files are backed up and in my control. Sure, my various plugin nick-nacks and doo-dads would stop working if I had to migrate everything away from Obsidian, but the meat of the content would still be there
Logseq has genuinely made me a less stupid person. It’s confusing to learn, but the ceiling for articulating and organising your thoughts and knowledge base is insanely high. Other apps kind of feel like I’m fighting the limitations of my tools in order to organise a mental library of where to find information.
