Obsidian has been previously recommended to me for another use case - seems that it's a very jack-of-all-trades tool. Suppose I should actually give it a look then.
Sync was the primary barrier for me though, since that service is paid...
there are alternatives. If you use onedrive. chuck it on that. If you want more freedom there is a plugin to sync it with a git repo.
I remember seeing a plugin that allowed you to sync via a self hosted database. I would give it a google.
Just host your own markdown directory, the app’s free to use for local files
https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing is a good self-hosted option you can use for syncing obsidian
