Seconding the use of this feature as well. I took it a bit further and took 5 minutes to set up a “Personal” focus mode, active only in the weekends where all work-related apps, mail, calls, etc. cannot send me notifications. In my work there are some serious boundary issues, so this helps me a lot with anxiety and stress.

I might have a similar problem. I was not using their desktop apps for some weeks, but I updated recently after they released a totally new app on mac os (different name so now I have two apps, ok) which I think is related to their name change. Since then, I can’t login in the new (or old) desktop app no matter what (the error was some connection issue I believe). Haven’t reached out to support yet but it seems they are having some troubles in the transition?

I sound like a broken record but check also https://silverbullet.md

It should check all of your boxes + it has local files like obsidian (which is why I love it), and the main dev is very active both on discord and forum.

Coming back super later to this, and I agree with your sentiment. Thanks for explaining :) I tried Anytype but the fact that pages are not plain text files is bothering me (I think obsidian kind of spolied me). If you settle on obsidian, for project management in obsidian I tweaked this https://github.com/duoani/obsidian-gtd (not my repo, the js scripts need a small update iirc), which was what I was looking for in a project management system.

I am still waiting for https://silverbullet.md to mature a little bit more and I’ll try to switch to it (foss+obsidian like many useful features as core plugins)

I never manage to get into foam coming from Obsidian, possibly because I use VSCode/Codium for coding, so it’s hard for my brain to adapt and appreciate all the pkm things (same reason Dendron didn’t stick either). Plus I’ll admit I’m getting used to the live preview thing. Sorry if I ask, do you use it for note taking or general work management?

Totally agree. I’m moving away from Obsidian but I’ll never be thankful enough to that software for getting me used to local .md files. I find it just way way better than any other solution.

https://github.com/AppFlowy-IO/AppFlowy is built to be an alternative to Notion. They jumped on the AI wagon as well and their website is more corporate-like that I remembered, but you might give it a shot :)

There’s also Strongbox available for ios
