Foam author here! I am very open to all suggestions in this area. Foam is a new project I built solely to my own requirements, but I'm actively seeking feedback on how to make it more broadly applicable as per our principles: https://foambubble.github.io/foam/principles

FWIW, subdirectory linking support is not far away. Work is being tracked on GitHub at the issue below, and I already have a WIP PR in the works: https://github.com/foambubble/foam-vscode/issues/8

If you have any more suggestions and ideas on how to improve Foam, feel free to open issues on GitHub!

That would seal the deal for me. I have tens of thousands of documents, notes, pictures etc. spread across hundreds of subdirectories. Foam looks extremely promising.
I just want to mention that I find the name absolutely great. Very fitting.
So far I'm loving your project. Will be closely following it as I move my notes into foam bubbles
Amazing! Please let me know in GitHub issues or Twitter DMs how you get along. This is a very early alpha release, keen to hear feedback at all levels!
Curious, unable to determine: is there a typeahead feature when inside wikilinks?
Yes, one of the markdown extensions handles that. It also allows “go to definition” on wikilinks
