Which is relative to personal taste and needs.

Everything about this discussion is.

far better option than notion, onenote, etc for most people

OK.

be fairly easy to get the important data migrated into anything else.

Why bother when I can do it now with the better option rather than in a couple years with several thousand notes?

Also it should be noted that peculiarities about how obsidian works makes transfers non trivial. Individual notes are fine, file structures not as much, but it's minor.

Trilium has a pretty robust export system last I checked. Not rally worried about that, meanwhile I get the massive speed upgrades and stability associated with a database.

Sure it could be reverse engineered... Or just use the software that's already basically there...

You're doing that thing where someone starts going to bat and listing off this that or this other thing to rationalize their own choice or rationalize the choice for others.

I've used obsidian for years. I switched to trilium for reasons I stated above. Unless obsidian goes fully foss, and gets way way more stable, i'll be using the genuinely better choice, thanks though.

Linking in trillium notes is PITA.

How do you work efficiently? Trillium is much more friction I felt when testing it out.

I agree that trilium could use more worth on linking efficiently. It's no various complements. I don't really have a method I just deal with it, sorry to disappoint.

But what is your workflow then?

Just curious because I can see trillium notes as worthfully when really creating sophisticated notes, like finished documentation.

But for working with small/atomic/draft notes the workflow is just too much friction for me to use it as a tool despite documenting past stuff.

I generally finish thoughts out in sections in a note and if I feel I need a new note I can drop in a link or I can send a section into a new note. I find it actually has cut down on note bloat, my main pain point is quickly writing aliases. If I was a script writer I don't think it would be hard to improve the feel of it tbh.
