I've been trying to incorporate notetaking into my life as well and have really liked obsidian so far. I got sick of juggling text files or being forced into crappy proprietary formats or having to pay for some bullshit subscription. Obsidian uses markdown files, which I was very familiar with already and comes with the huge bonus that if it were to disappear in the future I'll still be able to access all my notes easily.
How about learning vim and using vimwiki ?
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/
If you want something expandable: https://orgmode.org/
Yes, but... the advantage of the pure log method is you have a full record of what you've done. Depends on what you want. But definitely would be a waste of time trying to create a fully-organized personal wiki. Use ArchWiki instead.
