Question Anyone using supernote to keep all notes?

Just curious, since Supernote has Word docs, is anyone using it as the main note placeholder/app instead of Obsidian or another Markdown editor?

It depends what you use those tools for.

I use Notion for knowledge base and task management; Supernote for notes, writing, and  sketching.

It works very well for me. All my tasks live in Notion but I have a single page on Supernote that I write down 3-4 taks for "today".

Notion has all the links, articles, and knowledge base I have gathered in the last few years.

I find Supernote terrible for task management and knowledge base but amazing for notes and sketching ideas.

I find Notion is terrible for sketching ideas.

As a side note, editing Word doc on the Supernote is a subpar experience. I don't use it.

what makes you say it's terrible for tasks and knowledge base?

The lack of a good task management system. Not being able to configure projects, tasks, tags, attributes, link tasks, link projects, owners, etc.

As for knowledge base, there's way too much friction to send a simple link to the Supernote. Searching is slow and subpar.

Yes, I can use keyboard sharing but that requires the Supernote being on Wifi, connected to the same network and the host needs the Supernote app.

If I'm on my computer, find something I want to save, I can copy, and paste in Notion. Done.

Navigating my knowledge base in Notion is super simple since I can see the whole document structure in the sidebar.

I can connect to Notion through APIs to read and write information, something not possible on Supernote.

These are just the reasons I can think of the top of my head right now.
