Saving technical notes as pdfs with functioning links using pdflatex
I've been building an app called texnotes that lets users write obsidian style notes (with links etc) with but written in LaTeX instead of markdown. I've recently added markdown support, and a side effect of this is that you can now import notes written in obsidian to textnotes and then render them as pdfs with pdflatex, preserving the links between the files (or make4ht to get a static html version of the notes). The start of this youtube video shows me doing just that.

Launch HN: Athens Research (YC W21) – Open-Source Roam Research
You can definitely export your data from Roam (maybe not some types of data, such as images, but you can scrape that if you need to). I can say this for certain as someone who's worked on open source import, export, and backup tools for roam. [1, 2]

My roam account is stuck with Saving changes remotely.
May be preaching to the choir, but it's worth saying: always backup your Roam graph. I use roam-to-git which works decently well. You could also do it manually every once in awhile if you really want to make sure you're not missing anything.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing TeXNotes and roam-to-git you can also consider the following projects:
zettelcon - Automatic markdown backlinks. Designed with Zettlr in mind.
rss-proxy - RSS-proxy allows you to do create an RSS or ATOM feed of almost any website, just by analyzing just the static HTML structure.
