obsidian alternative? zettelkasten
Also, any decent editor paired with a markdown renderer like md4c. Use the editor you already use for other things. It probably can be extended for markdown.

'Kate' as a Replacement for 'Obsidian?'
QTextBrowser doesn't render to HTML, thank you! It took me a while to find it, but they use md4c internally.

Markdown CLI parser (written in C++)
However, the objective of this project (among others) is to be simple. Call me crazy but [6348](https://github.com/mity/md4c/blob/master/src/md4c.c#L6348) lines of code in C is not my definition of "simple" and "suckless" xD.
- MD4C stands for “Markdown for C” and that's what this project is about

On Keeping a Logbook (2010)
I use org-mode with the journal plugin, but I'm soon going to switch to zk[0]. My technique is called interstitional journaling[1], and I just keep track of my location (I travel a lot) and the date, which gets generated by org. You can set up an interstitional journal in anything though, Logseq[2] supports it out of the box.

What are your cross-platform note-taking solutions with neovim? I am so lost!
Personally, I'm using zk for now. What's nice about is that it aims to be a common-denominator between all the popular zettelkasten markdown formats out there. So the notes you write with it will be forward-compatible with many other note-taking apps like Obsidian.

Notetaking when solving issues and learning stuff
If you want to go full terminal workspace - you could use Zk (https://github.com/mickael-menu/zk) + editor of your choice. It is just markdown under the hood, but it comes with quite a few good features that majority of the tools have now (tags, backlinks, front matter, templates, etc). I wrote a post about my setup literally yesterday (it was a bit more editor oriented though) https://www.reddit.com/r/HelixEditor/comments/144x6r3/escape_hatch_xd/

Escape hatch xD
I selected Helix as it is phenomenally fast, I love out of the box feature set, key bindings are intuitive and it looks sick :) To manage my notes I found ZK - very cool CLI with extensibility in mind.

Looking for guidance on simplifying my note-taking setup into the terminal
For now, with a couple aliases wrapping nb as I try it out. I'm also planning to give https://github.com/mickael-menu/zk a shot, it looks to be almost exactly what I'm looking for an offers a vim plugin to boot.

Announcing mds v0.14.2: a shredding machine for markdown documents
mds is grepping notes' names and items' names (links and code snippets). and also moving forward/backward along the graph. I used to use https://github.com/mickael-menu/zk, it was messing me up, giving too much info, each line of every file.
- Need advice on what plugin for note taking
- Open-source tool for academic (history) research and writing - vimwiki or org-roam?

Note taking options?
Big fan of zk and zk-nvim. The biggest drawback was that link insertion depended on cmp, but now there's work to add linking as a direct LSP command. I've been using that since it's been merged in, and it makes creating and linking notes on the fly a breeze!
What are some alternatives?
When comparing md4c and zk you can also consider the following projects:
cmark - 💧 Elixir NIF for cmark (C), a parser library following the CommonMark spec, a compatible implementation of Markdown.
zeta-note - Markdown LSP server for easy note-taking with cross-references and diagnostics.
jdupes - A powerful duplicate file finder and an enhanced fork of 'fdupes'.
telekasten.nvim - A Neovim (lua) plugin for working with a markdown zettelkasten / wiki and mixing it with a journal, based on telescope.nvim
smu - Simple MarkUp - markdown/commonmark like syntax
neorg - Modernity meets insane extensibility. The future of organizing your life in Neovim.
Down - Blazing fast Markdown / CommonMark rendering in Swift, built upon cmark.
zk-nvim - Neovim extension for zk
zk.nvim - Neovim plugin as a lightweight wrapper around https://github.com/mickael-menu/zk
markor - Text editor - Notes & ToDo (for Android) - Markdown, todo.txt, plaintext, math, ..
wiki.vim - A wiki plugin for Vim
neuron.nvim - Make neovim the best note taking application
