I'm finding Obsidian.md really great, it's become my daily checklist, to-do lists, shopping lists, calendar, and notes archive all at once. It doesn't give reminders (there might be a plugin for that actually) but I always have it open on a second screen and I sync it between my phone and my computer, and I've been much better at keeping track of things since I started using it.
The program is kind of a lot, but it's worth putting in some effort to set it up in a way that works for you. Although to be honest I think I only figured out how it works because I was also motivated to use it for Dungeons and Dragons. Otherwise I'd probably still be using my old mess of sticky notes.
Just a shame that it's not open source. I've been using Zettlr instead, it's pretty much the only FOSS alternative that doesn't pester me into syncing my stuff to a cloud, which is the one thing I like most about Obsidian.
How do you go about using it? I have a strong case of out of sight, out of mind, so I set it to launch automatically when I login, otherwhise I would just forget about its existence.
I personally use Logseq and sync my notes between my computer and my phone using Syncthing.
Logseq didn't work with my brain but for anyone wanting an open-source alternative to Obsidian, this is the closest one.
