I used Obsidian for a few months and ran into the same issues. One task I set for it was organizing the worldbuilding, plotting and characters for a novel outline. It was excellent for this, and for a Node.js app it's amazingly light and has a great community.

Where it really failed for me was the mobile experience. All I can say is that I kept getting lost in it. This was occasionally a problem on the desktop as well, but on mobile I too often simply could not make my way up to an overview level. This may very well be a problem with me, not the app, but it was enough to kill my interest in it.

I'm back to my ever-growing "brain.md" file at work and (horribly organized) Apple Notes for personal use.
