Obsidian is an amazing piece of software.

Perhaps PKM as a cottage industry is overdone, and the author's point that everybody's system is highly personal and should not be replicated is valid. That said, Obsidian has allowed me to organize all of my reading, learning, writing, and thinking into a format that allows me to recall knowledge and make connections that I wouldn't have otherwise found. Seeing in what other contexts you have read about a concept or a historical figure or an essay, etc. is so valuable for life-long learning that I can't imagine going back to disconnected or separated note-taking.
