It's an invaluable tool that has saved me tons of time already, even though I haven't even been using Obsidian for that long. And with the ability to create templates, I can hit a keyboard combination and have a template for an article automatically inserted into whatever document I'm already working on. So now, I can have my folder of upcoming articles, write them all in Obsidian, copy and paste them into the editor, and not have to worry about frustrating formatting problems. It's just something that has clicked for me, but the problem is that there really aren't that many great Markdown editors that don't have a slew of compromises. Ever since joining Android Central a few years ago, Markdown has become my preferred way for writing articles or taking notes. Other than offering a blank sheet of canvas, Obsidian is also a markdown text editor. It's something that is really neat to look at, but it's definitely not anything that you would actually need to use unless you wanted to. Scroll far enough out, and it shows up just like a brain with different points representing different notes or topics. This brings us to the defining feature of Obsidian that I don't even use, and that's the "Graph View." From here, all of your notes are connected in some form or fashion, and you can get an overview of what that looks like.
