(slightly OT): Has anyone been able to replace Notion with Obsidian in a work/team context?

I find there's just enough missing things around collaboration/permissions/sharing that makes Obsidian a non-starter for work, even for the small team I have. Also seems it just feels a bit more "scary" for non-technical users to onboard onto on than Notion.

And if I can't use it for work, I'm not going to use it personally because I don't want to juggle multiple notetakers.

I imagine Obsidian is way more efficient for sharing context between you and agents and wish I could take advantage of that, but I also need to be sharing that context with my team

On the same boat here.. I am trying to leave notion for a couple of reasons. And falling Rupee also not helping. But nothing is as easy to use.

I was a big todo.sh fan in college. Then wundrrlist and joplin. Still miss wunderlist. Tried Tiddlywiki too and liked it. You can make all of them work if it's just you. Sharing and collaboration is pain!

Then Notion. It is just perfect. Was very happy to pay for personal plan which is now removed. There is no official client for Linux (thanks Lotion). I was even using it to host my blog. Now downgraded to a free plan. Using wordpress for blogging.

Have tried obsidian and joplin as notion replacement but couldn't make it work. Notion mobile app is not very fast but better than any other options. I am so used to its databases, cross-linking, creating reminders.

Why not bring back the personal plan! It was really affordable.

There are a handful of plugins that might help. Obsidian sync works well for device sync and the CLI is great for agentic stuff.

For real-time collaboration, some options are:

- Relay

- Peerdraft

- Screen garden

(full disclosure - I am the developer of Relay)
