Shownotes Transcript

In this episode, We discuss and debate the evolving open source note-taking app Obsidian. As the community grows, how can it balance accessibility with compensating developers? 

We discuss Ali Abdaal's comments about equity investment. And analyse whether large "creators" are better defined as media organisations with responsibilities. 

Jon shares his perspective on using Obsidian primarily for writing, unlike productivity tools. And they debate defining characteristics of open source communities.

How can open tools support developers while staying flexible?
