Zettlr is an open-source alternative [0]. It’s surprisingly feature-rich for a one-person project.

I’ve tried Obsidian, Roam Research, and others, but Zettlr is simply a much more complete piece of software.

In addition, the developer’s perspective on their work and complete belief in open-source, privacy, open standards, etc., is really heart-warming [1].

I have settled on Zettlr too and the tipping point was Zotero support. Since I'm still settling into it, I'm curious about Obsidian too.

Ultimately, it's not the tool itself, but the consistency with which I use it that had impact.
