Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Bear stands out with Beautiful markdown editor and Nested tags for organization. Obsidian counters with Local-first markdown files and Bidirectional linking.
Bear's Achilles heel: apple only — no windows, no android, no web app. and no tables or databases. Obsidian's: no real-time collaboration — syncing across devices requires paid add-on or diy solution. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
