@kepano Obsidian is free when you don’t use sync, isn’t it?

@heleenkuiper @kepano for personal use, yes. there are (extremely well-priced, worth it!) annual license fees for professional use

@heleenkuiper @kepano well yeah... The sync and licenses are the business model.

Obsidian is profitable and is able to hire more people because they have real money

Omnivore had no business model

@heleenkuiper @kepano I just told you and Kepano also told you.

The users buy services from them.

They buy sync/publich services.
They buy Catalyst
They buy business licenses.

I don't know what more to tell you....

"Above all, Obsidian is 100% user-supported. There are no investors pushing us to compromise on these values."

@heleenkuiper Obsidian has multiple revenue streams (commercial, Sync, Publish) whereas Omnivore only accepted donations
