Earlier quoted context omitted.

Obsidian is plain Markdown and JSON files. There can't be a will from the devs to make it hard to sync. It's just that unlike git or Dropbox or whatever, that are just generic "syncing" tools, Obsidian Sync has been built to provide the best experience with Obsidian.

I'm talking more about the plugin architecture not about the file format or third-party applications. sync plugins seems to be pretty limited compared to what's offered for a subscription.

Nice! I rely on Obsidian a lot for syncing knowledge while working with Claude agents, such as storing research and daily logs to catch up on the prior day’s work. It already works quite well with a custom skill that I build, but this may make the workflow smoother. I also built a cli tool to index embeddings in LanceDB and do semantic search. It helps agents create better internal links between notes. https://github…

Can you share more details on your setup with Claude Code ?

Isn't there a script or a plugin to sync your vault to github, already? (may be even to sync several vaults, for example to share vaults between colleagues)

This tool should finally make it possible to setup a good web interface to my obsidian notes. I have a hacky setup using github as the backend storage system but its slow.

Ive been surprised at how few people are interested in an obsidian browser tool, but its great if I want to read / write notes from a corporate laptop for example.

I just have my vault sitting in Dropbox ... Not sure what I would gain by moving to Sync?

End-to-end encryption, integrated version history, better mobile support, granular control over which settings and files are synced to each device.

And generally help the continued development of Obsidian so we can stay 100% user-supported.
