I learned of Obsidian last week from harshibar. It looks promising, unfortunately, it doesn't recognize .markdown as a Markdown file. :-(

From my limited testing, it looks like it could be useful, especially being able to create links.

+1 for Obsidian. Nice and simple and portable (I have it on Mac and Windows). Oddly, never occurred to me to put all the notes i have scattered EVERYWHERE into a git repo!

That's an easy enough solution with a batch renaming tool to switch .markdown to .md, depending on your platform/package-manager the tools differ of course so figure out which one works for you but personally obsidian is just another vendor to lock you into their product and its opinionated assumptions.
