What if I used Obsidian as a Markdown editor

OK, so Obsidian and I have never gotten along well. I know it's the 800-pound gorilla but it just doesn't click with me for some reason. After using SilverBullet for a while, I think I might know why. It's the file tree and sidebar. SilverBullet doesn't have one (by default) and so I spend no time "organizing" things. I just make a new note and move on. If I hide the sidebar in Obsidian as much as possible, could I make it feel the same?
