9 years of Apple text editor solo dev
You can use Rust with QML[1].
QML is actually pretty amazing. I've been building my block editor[2] view entirely in QML while the model is in C++. This separation of logic and presentation works great. And yes, there are some crashes sometimes (that I find quite easy to debug thanks to the built-in debugger), but take for example a similar app that's built with Rust and Dart[3], in my testing there were still memory leaks that caused my computer to hang. It's better to know you have a bug than for it to be hidden from you.
I agree with parent commenter, saying these cross-platform frameworks will end up supporting the least common denominator set of features. But I found with external open source libraries, the community is catching up very fast. For example, you want the awesome translucency macOS apps have for your Qt app? Here you go[4]. Many such cases. It's also pretty straightforward to add your own custom OS-dependent code, especially so, if someone already open sourced his approach. I recently wanted to move the traffic light buttons on macOS for my app, but couldn't figure the Objective-C code for that. I ended up looking at either Tauri or Electron source code and found my answer.

Quasi Self-Hosted Quasi Open Source Notion Alternatives from Asia (SiYuan, Affine, AppFlowy)
AppFlowy - GPL Licensed - their unique selling point is that they're farther along than SiYuan or Affine on their database table functionality. Both Siyuan and Affine have database tables for project management but Appflowy's solution is solid. https://github.com/AppFlowy-IO/AppFlowy

BlockSuite: An open-source Notion-like editor with multiplayer support
It seems like there's a lot of recent interest and effort in open-source or self-hosted Notion-like/markdown-with-widgets applications and platforms. AppFlowy (https://github.com/AppFlowy-IO/AppFlowy) comes to mind; I attended one of their monthly "town hall" meetings a few months back, and looks like they're rapidly increasing in popularity. I think there was another similar project like this on HN front page last week, IIRC.
This makes me happy, because I switched to Obsidian primarily for local-first file storage in a platform-agnostic format. I've learned to love many things about Obsidian and am writing a few plugins myself, but there are still several Notion-esq functionalities I wish I had, and I find myself handing off between Obsidian and other webapps for certain effort, like team project management.
I used to get far more excited to explore new projects like BlockSuite, and I really appreciate their documentation, but I find it hard to justify allocating time to reviewing and trying out new tools when I still have much more improve on with my Obsidian usage; this is especially true of newer projects where I'm unsure of their shelf life.
To assuage my internal conflict I remind myself that I think plaintext is fundamentally the right choice for much knowledge collection, and I'm proud to say that if the internet shut down, I'd retain a significant growing fraction of my personal data.

Sidebar Names Shifting? Themes Incompatible with New Update?
Yeah, that's probably it. I just looked at its github page and it was incompatible with V1.0+ so they removed it for now.

I am quite new to Obsidian and I got the primary theme. The search icon covers the search bar which is annoying. Does anyone know how to fix this? I have style settings. Any feedback is appreciated
Like others have said, the theme is in need of an update. The designer/developer is working on it! See this ticket for more info: https://github.com/ceciliamay/obsidianmd-theme-primary/issues/164

Clean Anki flashcards you can flip in Obsidian! CSS + Obsidian to Anki + Admonition plugin
Thanks! I'm using the Primary theme. Out of curiosity, what made you stop using Obsidian-Anki integration?
-
Showcase me your file structure & what tips would you give your younger self?
Finally the last advice I would give my younger self is to find a good theme that makes writing enjoyable and don’t spend too much time trying to add custom CSS etc. Look at “gems of the year 2021”, take one compatible with the Style Settings plugin and don’t spend too much time playing the CSS (unless you know what you are doing). I personally use Primary these days and I think I will stick with it.
