Two workarounds for macOS:

  1. Apptivate (free app) to set a shortcut for toggling the main app’s visibility → this is actually what I’m using
  2. Using macOS native app shortcut on the “Minimize” menu position: Create keyboard shortcuts for apps on Mac – Apple Support (AU) (though there seems to be no way to maximise it using this method)

Feature “Minimize Obsidian App to tray on close” is very useful.
Evernote and other similar programms are able to do it.

Obsidian has a plugin called “Global Hotkeys” which is supposed to provide OS-level hotkeys to Obsidian actions…not sure if it works on Mac (haven’t checked yet). Might be another option for folks.
