Honestly with LLMs you don't need an Obsidian anymore. You can just use neovim or emacs. Every feature you need, like search, or linking can be done via plugins or shell commands.

Because before LLMs you couldn't use neovim? Emacs's search feature was vide coded in 2024? How is the first half of your comment even related to the second half.
You could but the barrier was higher.
You’re right to ask, but wrong to do it in a rude manner.
I use Obsidian to view a series of markdown files I am generating / working on with a LLM - a rendered interface if you will with pointing and clicking
There are tools for rendering like pandoc. Way more powerful than Obsidian.
Interfaces matter.
TUI is arguably a better interface. Faster, more lightweight, operable with keyboard.
The only problem was a barrier of entry which is gone now.
This was the case before Obsidian existed, see Org-mode, vimwiki, etc.
I was using vimwiki with a ton of plugins for many years before Obsidian came along. It was very nice to be able to open all of my notes in a UI made for editing them.

Agreed. I definitely also had a few qualms with the app.
