#2My problem with obsidian is that I need a license to use it if I add something work related. I can not realy disentangle both. If Ilearn something new here on HN Iwm will propably use it later at work.

I am curious, is there any issue with just purchasing the license?
I started out using Obsidian just for university related stuff but found it incredibly useful, so I ended up purchasing the license myself. While I'm not a big fan of subscription software, 50$/year is extremely reasonable, especially considering that your data isn't trapped in someone's cloud.

#4If you want something self-hosted look into Foam[0]. You write your notes in VS Code with Markdown. Many web frameworks can then generate interactive sites from it.

#5Tiny suggestion - instead of
.map(g => { return { key: g.key, rows: g.rows.map(r => r[1]) }})
.map(g => ({ key: g.key, rows: g.rows.map(r => r[1]) }))Re: Digital Gardening in Obsidian

I am extremly cautios with this small fees. They tend to add up. If I would use Obsidian, I sure would use it all my live. So 50$ * 45 years more to go: 2250$

All the files are locally hosted, and written in standard markdown. You can abandon ship any time you want. It's also ok to pay for good software.

$2250 dollars over 45 years sounds pretty good imo but that's just me haha

Currently that's 10% of a month's income, not exactly trivial. They make an excellent products, but I probably will move to a FOSS solution if I find one so I can use it for work.

Obsidian is also self-hosted, so i don't understand your point. It's just a very fancy Markdown editor of local files.
