I don’t know what criteria requires iOS devs to display this, but comparing the two privacy disclaimers; Zen Notes may look at user content and Obsidian doesn’t.

    I've had my eye on zen notes, but haven't tried it. A couple of questions:

    1. Why not use Obsidian?
    2. What Obsidian capabilities do you need to replace?

    I use Obsidian, but a good FOSS alt would be good.

    I use Memos if you are looking for a FOSS alternative. I use it across devices and through my VPN when I am away from home.

    Memos is intriguing but also really strange. It looks more like a social media platform than a notes app. Can you explain what you like about this? How do you organize notes when everything is just on a timeline?

    I personally have not been using it that long, I just got fed up with whatever I was using before. Yes I agree there looks to be some social aspect to it for maybe a family or group of people to use together, I have not had any issues with it syncing across devices so I am happy with it for the time being.

    Is Obsidian not FOSS? Or do you mean you want more options? https://github.com/obsidianmd

    It's proprietary. The repo is plugins and APIs and stuff.

    I have no idea, as you've not linked to any information at all about it. What's wrong with Obsidian?

    i have tried it, i guess it does the job, altough i don't like the gui that much compared with obsidian. but that's a matter of taste i guess. i'll keep using obsidian for now i think.
