Except Obsidian doesn't use Markdown syntax for internal links to other Obsidian files, but (some variation of) Wiki-Syntax. This is something which I had to write my own parser for when converting Obsidian files to Org-Mode files using Pandoc https://github.com/Release-Candidate/Obs2Org
It's not about me and my configuration. The problem with Markdown is that there are so many "extensions" or variants or whatever you want to call them.
But the usage of Wiki-style links instead of Markdown or HTML links is something really, well, "interesting". While it may be easier to type than markdown links, they are certainly worse to read as "plain text".
