I have bagged on Obsidian a lot because of all the "me too" "Roam-like" "Second Brain" apps which followed Roam. After trying Obsidian a few times, it seemed not to offer much beyond all the others in that group.
I got past that by not looking at it through the Roam lens. I realized Obsidian is the tool I wanted to build for myself. I see it as a view / management layer over my MD files. Also, the features have been fast coming and some key additions have made the tool much more useful. And I really like my MD files.
