I’ve used Obsidian and just today moved to Joplin. Obsidian has way more features for power users and wider array of community plugins.
BUT
Joplin is FOSS and it still has plenty of features. Think of Obsidian capabilities as Microsoft Excel, whereas Joplin is at the level of Google Sheets. And Joplin notes can be encrypted, meaning .md files won’t be found lying around.
