Obsidian Alternative w/ Canvas option (lemmy.ca)

Edit: Obsidian is a good privacy option, I like finding several apps that have features that I use, please don't be under the impression that I'm calling out Obsidian. It is proprietary and not open source, and some may prefer open source instead.

I like Obsidian for the canvas option and just need a simple note taking app to keep track of projects and reference for clients, but it's proprietary and not open-source, so I'm looking for options that are.

I honestly could put in some leg work and test the others but hoping to bypass the faff of that with your help. Do any of the following have a canvas I can copy/ paste, organize images, add text, I made an example.

Thanks!

I use rnote for an "infinite canvas" note taking app, but it doesn't have much by way of text structuring features like lists, headings, etc. It's designed for hand-writing.

I agree that it'd be nice to have a FOSS alternative, but is there any evidence that Obsidian is violating user privacy?

I mean, I haven't read anything. It doesn't even have any kind of telemetry.
