Local plain text files instead/along database

I struggle now to remember what software I tested once that had input from local files and had some features that were specific to that software, when you went to read the markdown, there were syntaxes that were readable only by that software but you could still read the content.

Maybe Obsidian? There are probably more.

My end-thought about this is simply the worry to be locked in somehow (I know Anytype is a non-lock-in software), but in the sense that for some reason I can’t log in or who knows what could happen and I can’t access the content anymore. That’s the ultimate goal, really, for me, at least.

If that is something you are worried about, you can just export your spaces regularly into markdown just to make sure, although there is only a very low chance that you get locked out if you take precautions.

Also, you might wanna vote for this feature. This would make it so that you wouldn’t need to export it manually anymore.
