I care about privacy and the possibility of someone having access to my computer and being able to do things with my notes I don’t consent to.
Looking through the settings for the option to log out automatically when closing the application.
I know I can log out manually every time instead but it’s not convenient.
Why do you close the application instead of locking your computer? That way you’d hit one hotkey and away you go…
Because very often I invite people at my place. They are using Spotify or doing something that requires my computer to be unlocked. Sometimes they are stangers I don’t trust enough just yet. It’s not convenient to have to remember to log out from Obsidian.
I’d like something akin to Firefox. I configured it so that when you close the Firefox app no cookies are stored and I’m logged out from everything and you need the primary password to access my sensitive data.
Actually now that I think about just having a shortcut to log out from Obsidian would work for me but I don’t see one.
It is recommended to add a Guest account to your computer for this purpose. No one should be using your account except for you.
No need to do this if you add a Guest account to your computer. Makes your life a lot easier and keeps your data secure 
Just remember that even if you did log out of Obsidian, your note files are still plain text and able to be read by anyone logged onto your computer as you. Which is why it’s great to have a Guest account.

Ah yes you’re right since the vault data is stored on the computer locally too 
Alright you conviced me to just use a Guest account. It does seem like the proper solution to this. Thanks!
