Do you mean that you use a VNC connection to access your server UI? Or is there a way to host Obsidian as a true web app?

Does this work similar to Syncthing where it syncs the markdown files to the local file system? If so, that’s definitely helpful, but I’m trying to avoid saving/storing my personal notes on my work laptop. I’d rather access them through a web interface and avoid local storage (in certain use cases). Another example is where people can’t install custom software on work computers, so it’s helpful to have a non-Obsidian way to edit the files for those times.

Obsidian is great except for the times when you can’t sync your notes to a local file system (like on a work computer). Does anyone know of a self-hosted web app that’s effective for reading/editing the markdown files?

Related question on the local subnets - I currently have Tailscale set up on my home server, phone, and laptop. However, it’s a little annoying that apps on my phone (like Synology Drive) should reference local IPs when on my LAN and then Tailscale IPs when outside of my home. Would you recommend setting up an alternate device at home (like Raspberry Pi) to function as a subnet router for Tailscale so that I can just use my local IPs no matter where I am? Is there any benefit to installing Tailscale on every device vs using a single subnet router for the entire home network?

Doesn’t this defeat the purpose of multi factor authentication though? If someone got access to 1Password, they could access both your password and secondary authentication code. I think it may be a better idea to keep them separate.

Have you tried the Mobius Sync app that uses Syncthing on iOS? It seems to have been recently updated so that it can reference folders from other apps (like Obsidian). I just created this workflow a couple days ago, and it seems to be syncing correctly. Because iOS isn’t great about letting third-party apps run indefinitely in the background, I used the built-in Shortcuts app to automatically open Mobius Sync every time that I close out of Obsidian in order to always sync my notes to all my other devices.

Libreddit is trying to use the private Reddit API . Which is currently being used by the official Reddit app.

How is this possible? Doesn’t Reddit restrict their private API behind some sort of key/token?

TestFlight is Apple’s process for distributing beta apps on iOS. Developers can have a limited number of users register for the beta, and then users download the beta app through the TestFlight app.

GitHub is a Microsoft-owned platform where developers store their code repositories. I don’t have an Android device anymore, but I think users can download a packaged APK file from GitHub to directly install a non-PlayStore app. You’d probably need to update your settings to allow installs from unknown source’s though.

Besides the big ones:

  • Octal - App for Hacker News
  • Poe - Quora’s implementation of ChatGPT
  • Artifact - News app that lets you mark headlines as clickbait and then uses AI to rewrite them with helpful info
  • LunaSea - Interface for my home instances of Sonarr and Radars
  • Strong - Weightlifting app
  • Diarium - Low-cost and straightforward journal app

I’m also trying a few, and my favorites are Memmy and Thunder. They seem to have the most refined and well thought out user interfaces. I think Memmy is using React Native, while Thunder is using Flutter, so it’s cool to see them both develop in different ways.

Thanks for the additional info! That link says “All other vehicles are prohibited from driving, stopping, or standing in the bus lanes when they are in operation, except to make turns.”

This makes me still wonder if they’re endorsing people parking in the lanes outside of the designated rush hour times. I would’ve expected that people could just use it as a driving lane outside of those hours, but because DDOT left up the original parking signage and parking meters on the other side of the bike lane, people seem to have collectively decided that they can keep parking there.
