So Logseq [1] is open (AGPLv3), also markdown with no lock in, more powerful in some key ways than Obsidian (it has block links, which I’ll let others expound on the benefit of or edit this when I’m at my desk).

The main thing it’s lacking for now is good mobile support, for which folks still use Obsidian mobile…

It's lacking good support for mobile, but the mobile app is usable, and in active development. I use it daily with no issues. It mostly just lacks a no-frills setup for syncing notes on multiple devices, but they are developing a subscription for backup/sync hosted by them (I use syncthing, but others have used iCloud and google drive).

To build on the features mentioned there's also:

- A community marketplace for plugins and themes

- Simple customization and extensibility

- A builtin PDF viewer with highlighting and linking

The builtin pdf viewer is terrible, though. It doesn’t even have search.
