Obsidian is similar in that it uses folders of Markdown files. However...
If you want version control, which I think you should, you’ll need to set up the same git + syncthing system on your Obsidian vault, which negates any advantages regarding easier syncing.
I prefer the interface of some other Markdown editors.
I don’t like how Obsidian discourages people from dealing with the filesystem directly.
It’s not open source.
It’s not a bad piece of software, relatively speaking. Some people like it; if you don’t care about version control, then maybe you’d like it. It does have some fancy overview tools and it works on phones better.
I enjoy using Obsidian for its automatic syncing and intuitive mobile application. I’d happily use the git system outlined in your post if I didn’t jot down as many notes (or reference links saved in files) on my phone as I do now.
