Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Freedom Tech Weekend, we dive into a powerful alternative to Google Docs and other cloud-based note-taking tools—Obsidian. If you’re looking to reclaim your digital privacy and sovereignty, Obsidian offers encrypted, markdown-based, locally stored notes with optional sync—without handing your data to Big Tech.
Host Marks walks through his personal Obsidian workflow, shares use cases, plugin recommendations, and previews other open-source and privacy-focused alternatives like AnyType and Logseq. Whether you're looking to migrate off Google Docs, explore markdown, or organize your knowledge securely, this episode is your weekend launchpad.
🎯 Take back your notes. Take back your freedom.
