  2. 2
    Logseq is a local-first, non-linear, outliner notebook for organizing and sharing your personal knowledge base.
    Pricing:
    • Open Source
    • Free
    Refined user interface: Logseq offers a refined user interface that is easy to understand and pleasing to the eyes. On the other hand, Obsidian looks like a jumble of various UI elements which are hard to figure out and look daunting. Logseq wins this round for me, hands down. – The only reason to choose Obsidian’s user interface over Logseq’s is that the former is far more customizable.

  3. A second brain, for you, forever. Obsidian is a powerful knowledge base that works on top of a local folder of plain text Markdown files.
    Block Reference and block embeds: Adding block reference and block embeds in Logseq is simple. You use double-open parentheses (( and type to search the block you want to link. In Obsidian, you have to first add the link to the note and then use # to embed headers and ^ to embed blocks.– Obsidian also makes it hard to see the origin of block references, as they are only visible in the sidebar. In Logseq, every reference block has a number next to it which shows that it has been referenced before, and you can click on the number to see the referenced page.
