Before I get into why I love Obsidian and why you should use it, let’s go over what is Obsidian.

What is Obsidian?

Obsidian is a place to store all your thoughts, ideas and more. It’s the best out there for a couple of reasons

• Your notes are right on your computer meaning ever single file in Obsidian is a file on your computer.
• Obsidian uses markdown (every one uses it, because it’s the best), it’s basically a way to format your notes to make them more readable and look more appealing.
• You can visualize your notes. There are multiple ways you can visualize and make connects about your note’s that you’ve might not seen before.
• There’s plugins that you can put in Obsidian. There are thousands of plugins and themes for Obsidian that makes it feel more personalized to you.

Obsidian’s goal is to give you a place where you can put down all your notes. (Obsidian calls it a vault). And I think it does a pretty good job at it.
