A few days ago I wanted my obsidian notes on a linux machine. Well, the files are synced via iCloud Drive (no Linux), so I asked it to solve it across my devices. It used Syncthing which has been working great.
Then yesterday obsidian desktop stopped loading (probably a bug in a plugin?). I’ve always wanted to do my notes in the browser, so it forked https://files.md and set it up on my home server pointed at my sync folder.
I was of the mindset that I’d not want to self host my day to day tooling, happy to pay, but it seems having the ability to run open source tools where I can say “just fix it” is too convenient to ignore.
