I’m having the same issue. I also had some conflicts show up when I was on my windows PC, after I just setup a new macbook. These are the same file and showed up while editing the same note on Windows. Macbook was closed at the time.
I do currently have my vault set to a folder that’s in Dropbox so it might explain some of my issues. I plan to move away from that today or tomorrow when I have time.
Can we please keep this on topic? This is about Obsidian Sync Only. We have already recommended to not mix sync with other sync solutions.
Hi there, I’m also facing this issue.
It seems like a combination of plugins
Steps to reproduce
---
some_data_here: something
---
at the bottom, I'm also having "dataview"
```dataview
Somethings
'''
Examples:
---
some_data_here: something
---
Today is a great day! – this is a new line
at the bottom, I'm also having "dataview"
```dataview
Somethings
'''
---
some_data_here: something
---
at the bottom, I'm also having "dataview"
```dataview
Somethings
'''
```---
some_data_here: something
---
Today is a great day! – this is a new line
at the bottom, I'm also having
```dataview
Somethings
'''
So it seems like a new template/page is created before “sync” and the merging process doing bad with --- and “```” backslashes
The issue with daily notes is well known. It happens because the daily note is created/opened before sync has the chance to download it. I am not sure we’ll do anything to fix this.
The rest of the reports in this thread are too vague and not actionable. I am going to close this thread. If anybody has this issue with Obsidian Sync and is able to provide reproduce steps, please open another bug report.
I wrote Licat here how it happened. These aren’t exact repro steps because it doesn’t happen often enough, but it does happen now and then (without any other sync services running).
This was his reply.
What has happened according to Licat:
the file was downloaded, accepted, but then the next server push it was determined to be in conflict, which it normally shouldn’t if it was just downloaded
This is not a problem with daily notes (the automatic creation), but could also happen in them because they are normal notes.

This has been happening for weeks for me and it’s kinda nerve-wrecking to have to clean up every time as it’s not always obvious which version is newest. It’s not just daily notes for me, it’s also notes that I do work on generally. Here’s an example of a new MOC that just had a “stacked sync” condition as described. I find that my mobile app disconnects from the vault quite often, and whenever I reconnect it does this to all notes with data where the mobile note is different from what’s synced from desktop. Most often, for me the newest content ends up at the bottom. I think the order of where the newest content ends up has to do with 1. which device the newest content was edited in (for me, usually desktop), and 2. which device (in my case, mobile phone/vault) got disconnected from the synced vault and has to reconnect - possibly pushing outdated content to the cloud. Here’s a screenshot of what the stacked syncing actually looks like: Screen Shot 2021-09-02 at 8.41.29 AM|330x500
I have created a new post with (I hope) a clear description of what happened to me.
I will close this report, because it also contains different issues. If you experience the same issue as described in the post linked above, please add a comment to it.
If your issue is different, please open a new bug report.
