I moved (mostly) from Notion to Obsidian recently. I am very happy with the move: Obsidian's focus on simplicity helps you focus on the essential and makes it much faster then Notion. They are somewhat different, though. Notion adds the most value when you use it as a collection of interrelated databases, while Obsidian is for taking notes. Overall, Notion's is more data-driven, while Obsidian is text-based. Notion is also better for collaboration, though I haven't really tested either in this regard. Finally, I'd recommend not overdoing it with plug-ins when you start with Obsidian. I'd recommend the Minimal theme, Style Settings (to customize a bit the looks according to your preferences) and the Tag Wrangler (really helps with managing tags, which is kind of a big deal in Obsidian), Advanced Tables (creating tables in markdown is really annoying), and Dataview. You can add some other minor ones of your preference (like Custom Filé Explorer Sorting, or some plug-ins for Canvas or Excalidraw), but keep it simple. I wouldn't recommend Make.md -- it kind of turns Obsidian into Notion, but it messes up with formatting and YAML a lot. More on reddit.com

I used Notion for worldbuilding for ages and Scrivener for writing. A year ago, i replaced both with Obsidian and now, a year later, i have never been happier, with how my writing is going and how my vault looks. However, it took me 2-3 months to really settle into Obsidian. I am also aesthetically minded and just had to learn how to set up and use Obsidian to give me what I wanted. It was frustrating and fun at the same time. So for people who want to tweak, i can't say Obsidian feels immediately intuitive. However, i will say this: When i migrated things from Notion (manually), i realized I had barely done any writing in it, although I had tons and tons of notes. (I'm referring to the content of my worldbuilding and story notes here). Notion had forced me into categorizing and defining things so that everything was sorted, which had helped at the time, and i had enjoyed it, but that is not the purpose of the project. A lot of my notes had elaborate properties setup to show in different views, but the body of the note was almost empty. This is in part i think because what's inside the body of a note feels completely hidden and unsearchable in Notion. Obsidian immediately stimulated me to actually fill out notes and build meaning and connections - as an app, it just stimulates you to write - that's just what you do in Obsidian. From this perspective, i would feel anxious about keeping things in Notion because you have very limited options when it comes to backing up your work, and we know how important that is for writing projects. What if you lose everything? Obsidian has amazing backup and version control options with git and other plugins, so it feels much safer to host my whole writing project here. It's very easy to search and discover things in obsidian, connect chapters with any kind of note about them, work with all the relevant notes you need for a specific part of your writing simultaneously. This just facilitates great writing sessions for me. With Notion, it's very easy to just bury info where you may never find it or look at it again - search is practically none existent. I came to hate this. Overall, i adore my obsidian. I always recommend it to writers IF they understand it'll take a while for things to settle in. If this is fine with you, give it a go. But for people who like to tinker, there's usually a period at the start in which they work ON obsidian and not IN obsidian. For me, once I got to a point where i was reasonably happy with how everything looked and worked, i started working IN obsidian and i feel like it gave me soo much creative freedom. But i ocassionally still get the tinkering bug. That being said, i also spent ages prettyfying my Notion, so the time sink between the tools is comparable I think. More on reddit.com

I just accepted both are different apps so aesthetic and functionality will vary. But one thing common for both of them is mobile app sucks. More on reddit.com

No es la más barata, pero Obsidian Publish te permite publicar tus notas a través de su servicio por una cuota. También está Obsidian Sync… Difícil de superar sus propios servicios si quieres algo fácil y confiable. Estás ayudando al desarrollo de la app y los servicios. Si odias las suscripciones, creo que Git es la solución que buscas, pero quizás lo estás descartando demasiado pronto. Elimina la necesidad de hacer un montón de copias de seguridad individuales… tienes historial de archivos para cada archivo en el repositorio que creas. Solo necesitas crear un repositorio en blanco y configurar el token de acceso personal para que ObsidianGit funcione, creo. More on reddit.com
