I just installed Obsidian. Tried it. The vibe of the contents that I put into Obsidian has a funny 'Obsidious' tone. I think a neutral vibe is what is required for a generic content editing software. Uninstalled.

What do you mean? In my opinion UI is absolutely minimal. Not a single place with any kind of branding left - no logo, no 'Obsidian' text repeated all over. Ok, there is 'Choose Obsidian's default color scheme' in settings (totally warranted). Clean as it can be. It is actually unique in that matter of retracting logo/name from any view. There is branding on vault opener/switcher, which is tasteful and just in place - it's good to know what piece of software you're using, after all.


I'm talking about the [feeling]. It just imbues everything.


Well, I'm really curious, if you could try to describe it. It is just interesting you get this. I am not here to defend Obsidian in any way, rather interested in understanding what it is all about.

It's weird how you phrased your comment, but I suppose it gives you a cult vibe as opposed to say Typora or Marktext, maybe because it's too distinct and kind of opinionated and used/promoted by people who could be seen as cult leaders?


Do you see a <homepage> anywhere where you can join my cult, you cuck? It's pretty damn obvious your life goal is to chew on some green paper, you sub-human expendable. I get that how I 'phrased my comment' might be seen as 'weird' by your types; you probably get that I used to code.
