Is there any proprietary Android app for which you wish there would be an open-source alternative? (lemmy.ml)

Basically, what the title says. Do you use any app, that is proprietary, but either has no OSS alternatives or they're all not good enough? If there is an alternative, what keeps you from switching?

Logseq is good but it doesn't have all the obsidian features: it handles markdown a bit differently, does not just use the file tree and has no tags.

ok, but on a smartphone, with touch screen?

Fair enough. But IIRC there's a couple well made org mode android apps. I think orgzly was the name

Edit: also emacs does run on android!
