tallshipI've checked out Obsidian a few times, and upon your announcement figured I'd give it another install (v0.12.10 currently).<br><br>I see a .deb, tarballs for building packages on every other distro or (presumably) <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.cloud/tag/bsd" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BSD</a> flavors, but no <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.cloud/tag/apks" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#APKs</a>, and it's not in the F-Droid repos.<br><br>Google Play Store is a full-stop, No-go, hard limit. I don't even see Obsidian in the <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.cloud/tag/aurora" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Aurora</a> store, but maybe they've placed the mobile versions somewhere else in their GitHub repo or perhaps over at <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.cloud/tag/gitlab" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Gitlab</a>?<br><br>Also, noting that, according to the https://Obsidian.MD webstite, device syncing is advertised at $4 USD /mo, so the free personal accounts are actually $4/mo from my PoV. Is that correct? Please do correct me if I've miscontrued the cost of this very much required aspect of a personal (and of course, enterprise as well) organization system.<br><br>Can you offer any insight into safe and privacy respecting alternatives for obtaining and installing <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.cloud/tag/obsidian" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Obsidian</a> on the smaller mobile devices, such as phones and tablets? Many devs maintain their own automated upgradable Git repos (such as Fair Email, via their GitHub repo), and external F-Droid compatible repos that can be added within F-Droid for such purposes and enabling the user to enjoy features that would be banned at Google, be prohibited in F-Droid proper, or being otherwise outright incapable of being included via any other method than direct download of the APKs.<br><br>I would be interested in evaluating further, but As a FOSS and privacy advocate that's pretty much all I recommend to folks (Privacy respecting Open Source - mostly FOSS). I would really like to be able to wholeheartedly get behind promoting Obsidian as a solution that obviates several other non-integrating systems that require the duplication of input to achieve what Obsidian does already in a single sphere of management.<br><br><a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.cloud/tag/tallship" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tallship</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.cloud/tag/vger" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Vger</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.cloud/tag/obsidianmd" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#obsidianmd</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.cloud/tag/f_droid" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#f_droid</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.cloud/tag/git_repo" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#git_repo</a>
