Audio Diary VS Obsidian Canvas

I've built Audio Diary (https://audiodiary.ai) which is in a similar space to Obsidian and found this post interesting, but very puritanical. Using funding as a "shortcut" to growth is very important as time is limited (by runway, lifespan, motivation, etc). He even says at the very start that he doesn't expect his app to live forever. If so, why not get some help to have the best chance of growth and get a great... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

I am working on https://audiodiary.ai as a solo founder, I recently have been getting enough income to just about cover my living expenses and haven’t received any funding and didn’t do any marketing, with 9k users so far since launch last May.

The spec basically fits on a page: https://jsoncanvas.org/spec/1.0/ Summary: "node: { type: ..., x/y/color }; edge: { from/to: ..., color/label/... }" Refreshingly simple, especially paired with their "gif of usage": https://obsidian.md/canvas. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

Even when they step away from Markdown, like for example the canvas feature (https://obsidian.md/canvas), they make sure to build it on top of JSON files instead of inventing a more proprietary format. Does any of the competition use it? Not that I'm aware of. If Obsidian disappeared tomorrow, could anyone reasonably replicate it? Yes. If you don't want to pay for sync, you have other options.
