You can use standard markdown links in obsidian, and even wikilinks are often supported (e.g. pulldown-cmark supports them). Or you can configure obsidian to prefer standard markdown links (https://obsidian.md/help/settings#Use%20Wikilinks)

My notes were _already_ a folder of markdown, so I pretty seamlessly moved from VS Code as my notes app to obsidian and could move back to a text editor if obsidian turns evil. This might be part of why I’m less enthusiastic about their canvas thing, but then I was never a mind map or scrap board person anyway.
