This is the same conversation they had with reddit for years. It's being developed for everyone and we'll make it open some day. Now look what happened.
I use obsidian but only with the bare minimum knowing that I may have to jump ship at any moment.
It's regrettable that Obsidian isn't open source. But the nice thing about it is that its data store is just a bunch of markdown files in a folder structure, and very easily migrated to any other application. They may have the code but they don't take the data hostage like a lot of commercial software does.
Yeah they even say if you don't like what they do in the future you can easily pickup your md files and take them elsewhere.
