| I have been using remotely save and a free bucket from backblaze. It as a s3 compatible api so works using the s3 feature. |

| I've had good luck with syncthing. But I only sync between laptop and desktop.. the mobile story with syncthing isn't ideal. |

| Just pay for the sync. I used to juggle with git, rsync, inotify etc and other tools Its one of the few subscriptions where it actually feels like money well spent |

| ▲ | hombre_fatal an hour ago | parent [-] | | I was using SyncThing, and it worked, but any time you have an Obsidian vault open on two devices, or shortly after another, you're always thinking about if you're going to have to clean up a bunch of sync conflict files later. And that mental overhead is not worth saving $4/mo. The conflicts are never hard: it's like a git merge conflict where you just take the latest of every conflict block. |

| I just pay for the sync. I like that I can have some vaults that sync to both my personal and work laptops and other vaults that only sync to one or the other. It’s awfully convenient without any vendor lock in since I can just take my plain markdown files and leave anytime. |

| I built a one-time purchase solution that might help you. - https://isolated.tech/apps/syncmd - https://isolated.tech/apps/syncmd/blog/obsidian-git-ios-setu... You can git clone directly to your iOS file system which fixes the Obsidian git plugin issue so you can use the Obsidian git plugin on your computer and mobile devices. |

| I used to use SyncThing, then Dropbox, then iCloud. But then I just caved and paid for Obsidian Sync and it is the best money spent aside from Claude. I don't have to tinker with weird settings anymore or deal with sync issues, it just works. |

| ▲ | FloatArtifact 2 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | I can't wonder if that's by design to make it hard for a plugin to have it's own sync mechanism. Definitely not proof of this that I know of, but a thought. | | |
| ▲ | wiether 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | 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. | | |
| ▲ | FloatArtifact an hour ago | parent [-] | | 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. |

| I use both and I prefer their builtin sync, since I also code on Linux. |

| ▲ | willis936 an hour ago | parent [-] | | I use this and a self-hosted couchdb. So far it seems to be good, but I haven't spent more than a few hours with it yet. I do have what appears to be a working setup on ios, macos, and linux. Obsidian's large number of plugins and control surfaces is a bit hazardous. |
