Any alternatives to Obsidian that are not built on Electron?
i have no idea if its electron based but check this out → Nota - Pro notes app designed for local Markdown files.

Some Notes/Writing Apps I'm Loving Right Now
I've started using it in combination with Nota, which I recently replaced Obsidian with. I use this for my collection of academic notes, which I prefer to keep local-first. Nota looks much nicer, and is much more suited to handling a large collection. Obsidian has far more features, but I don't need most of them anyway, and hopefully Nota will continue to evolve.

IntelliBar — ChatGPT at your fingerprints
Our other product Nota is also free for users who can't afford it. One of our goals is to make it free for those who can't afford it. However, we also should pay our bills. I can promise you that if we earn enough from a product we will make it more and more affordable for users — we don't aim for big earnings.

IntelliBar — macOS Spotlight-like app that puts ChatGPT a shortcut away
We've been building macOS apps for the past 8 years. Our main app is Nota.

My ingenious library failed but my simple one reached 2m downloads
main-thread-scheduling is a 3kb library that can make your app responsive and fast in just a single line of code. Nota uses it for its super fast search and Flux.ai uses it for their advanced 3D circuits editor. Also, it doesn't have any competition. Usage:

Ask HN: Is there any beautiful Markdown editor?
I'm the founder of a beautiful Markdown editor. Actually two:
Nota - https://nota.md. It's a notes app but a lot of our users use it as a markdown editor. Nota is quite powerful as a markdown editor. It has a lot of smartness built into it.
Caret - https://caret.io. We started with this - a beautiful Markdown editor. We aren't implementing new features for it but if you are on Windows or Linux it might be worth trying out. We still have new users coming in.
A common feature of the two is that they both are pleasant to use. We've put a lot of hard work in the UX (which is also hard to market and one of the reasons why you probably haven't heard about us).

Why single vendor is the new proprietary
> why does open source need to "win"
Open source does not need to win.
But your ability to be in control of your computer needs to be preserved. A proprietary fridge cannot control your diet, while a proprietary App Store can control what software you install on YOUR phone (unless you live in EU, hello DMA!). The tail wags the dog, so to speak. Proprietary software has also been shown to break user workflows or remove functions in an update while leaving users with no choice whatsoever.
One alternative to having open source win is to ensure software must come with a robust warranty and other assurances you expect from the things you buy. EU's CRA will make software vulnerabilities in WiFi routers covered by warranty, for example.
You can also ensure robust and interoperable data storage options. For example, https://obsidian.md/ stores all notes in Markdown, not holding the data hostage in case users will not like how future versions will work. GDPR actually has a provision for data portability (Art. 20), but it does not seem to have a requisite effect on the industry yet.
And until the above issues are solved, open source remains the best way to ensure that a software tail cannot wag your computer dog.

Replatforming from Gatsby to Zola!
So I've had my fair share of personal websites and blogs. I have built them on stacks ranging from the most basic HTML and CSS, to hosted frameworks like Wordpress and Laravel, to the more modern single page applications built in Vue and React. For a simple content blog I think you can't go wrong with a Static Site Generator though. These days I am almost exclusively writing everything in Obsidian. Which is great because its all in standard markdown format. This allows for a really neat and easy content publishing workflow.

Setting Up Obsidian for Content Planning and Project Management
Obsidian is a writing application created to allow for offline / private note taking in markdown format, in an interface that looks a lot like our regular programming IDE. It is very flexible, with a good collection of community plugins that you can use to customize Obsidian to your heart contents.

Where Is Noether's Principle in Machine Learning?
Thank you!
In the beginning, I used kognise'z water.css [1], so most of the smart decisions (background/text color, margins, line spacing I think) probably come from there. Since then it's been some amount of little adjustments. The font is by Jean François Porchez, called Le Monde Livre Classic [2].
I draft in Obsidian [3] and build the site with a couple python scripts and KaTeX.
